Inspections & Code Compliance
At UES, we are aware that building inspections are a necessity to ensure quality within any building or construction project. Amongst our array of engineering and construction services, our experienced team offers building inspections nationwide to make sure your property, workplace, or construction site meets building standards. Our inspection staff experts can answer any of your building questions, and also act as the first line of defense against code compliance violations to protect communities and businesses from noncompliance issues.

Our commercial building inspections includes the following services:
- Weekly visits with building code officials to review works in progress, or specially schedules visits depending on smaller job scopes
- Footer, foundations, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, insulation, fire suppression, accessibility, sub-slab construction inspections, reviews and approvals of special inspections, above ceiling inspections, and final Use & Occupancy approvals.

Maintenance Inspections
To keep your property up to date, UES also offers maintenance or milestone inspections for pre-existing buildings. Our associate building inspectors can help keep your property or properties (both residential or commercial) up-to-date and compliant with your municipal codes and regulations.
Our maintenance inspections can evaluate structural deterioration, determine if a building is safe for human occupancy, provide a detailed inspection report to the appropriate offices, and make sure your building's structural integrity is in accordance with architectural and engineering specifications. We also offer emergency inspections in the event your building may be flagged as non-compliant.
