commercial building inspections, including, but not necessarily limited to:
low, medium and high rise office buildings, apartment buildings, industrial
buildings, multi-family buildings, institutional buildings (churches,
schools),
garages, stores and malls. CARNELL also has expertise

estimates can be included in CARNELL's commercial inspection reports.
Photographs are included in most CARNELL reports.
CARNELL's engineers/architect and environmental technicians have the
expertise to assure the buyer, occupant owner or renter, a complete
assessment
of the condition of the property.
Additional items specific to commercial buildings are reported in the
engineering inspection report and include the inspection scope items, so
indicated in other sections of CARNELL's web site.
CARNELL has completed over 8,000 commercial inspections and consultations.

In order to protect the quality of your project, CARNELL
will
review plans and can oversee work to insure that the plans and
specifications
are being followed correctly.
Bank/Financial Institution Funding Draws
CARNELL has been consulting and working with major financial
institutions in the tri-state area, preparing cost budget estimates for total
costs of any type of commercial, as well as residential projects.
As part of the total budget cost analysis, CARNELL visits the project
site on a prescribed basis to approve completion of work and submit item cost
approval reports. Faxes, e-mail and original reports are submitted to all
interested parties as directed by the financial institution.
Site inspections are usually conducted within two business days after
requests and reports are submitted within 24 to 48 hours after site
inspections
are completed.
CARNELL will be happy to submit a sample package (i.e., report,
budgets) and references, as requested.
