Designated Substances and Hazardous Materials Survey
The presence of designated substances and hazardous materials can significantly impact the project design and budget. Furthermore, the Ontario Occupational Health and Safety Act requires that a list of all “designated substances” at a project site be provided to all bidders at the tendering stage and that the “Constructor” for a project shall ensure that each prospective contractor and subcontractor for the project has received a copy of the list before entering into a contract. Of the 11 substances “designated” in Ontario to date, asbestos, lead, silica and mercury are the most likely to be present in
the building in a form that could represent a potential exposure concern during any renovations or modifications in the building. Various regulatory requirements also apply to control of exposure to mould, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB), and ozone-depleting substances (ODS). The survey will,
therefore, include for assessment of asbestos, lead, mercury, silica, mould, PCBs and ODS’ that may be affected by the proposed work.

Baseline Property Condition Assessment (BPCA)
ASTM E2018-15 establishes guidelines for performing a property condition assessment (PCA), Our field observers who specialize in PCA's typically perform a walk-through survey, interviews maintenance workers and tenants, and pulls courthouse documents like surveys and other technical data on the structure. All the information provides an overview of the building’s condition providing the client with a property condition report.
Commercial Building Inspection
Commercial building inspections differ from PCAs in that they provide much more detailed information to the client. We use the assistance of a team of experts, each of whom contributes information compiled in a highly detailed inspection report for the client. Get It Inspected on an office building we might bring in a structural engineer, elevator expert, and someone who understands fire protection systems, and on a small apartment building, we might not bring any of those consultants on board.
