Building Code Evaluations

A Building Code Evaluation is a comprehensive review and assessment process that examines whether existing buildings, new constructions, or specific building components comply with the applicable building codes and regulations. These Building Code Evaluations can typically include the employment of an architect, planner, or emergency service individual, such as a local fire marshal.

A Building Code Evaluation may involve a single building or a group of adjacent structures. The code review isn’t limited to life safety measures but extends to security issues and can consider the impact of vandalism and graffiti on land owners, tenants, or visitors of real property.

A Building Code Evaluation is essential for identifying areas where a building might not meet current standards and for making recommendations to bring the building into compliance, thereby enhancing safety, security, and resale value.
