Largest Commercial Building Inspection in The HIstory of A Buyer's Choice Home Inspections

May 14, 2014

Hello everyone,
Our BC Team has had a major success on the largest commercial inspection in the history of A Buyer's Choice Home Inspections! A three man team of Randy Squires and Ron Lyons, lead by Aaron Borsch, inspected a 75 suite Holiday Inn for a commercial client this past month.

The inspection was more complicated than normal because we had to manage a number of sub-contractors to ensure that all systems were inspected for the remote client. The inspection included:
- City of Surrey - Fire, Safety & Accessibility
- Elevator Contractor
- Mechanical Contractor for Industrial Boilers and Chillers
- Swimming Pool Contractor
- Restaurant Inspection
- Industrial Laundry Inspection
- Thermal Imaging of suites and offices.

The work was done over a 3 day period. Consequently a fair degree of planning was necessary to manage the sub-contractors and coordinate the timing of the inspection activities to ensure there was very little disruption for the hotel guests and employees while in full operation.

COORDINATING ACTIVITIES IN THE SITUATION ROOM

Ron Lyons brought his expertise as a journeyman electrician, so he handled the inspection of more than 16 electrical panels and a complicated metering system.

OVERVIEW OF THE SWITCHGEAR ROOM

Randy Squires conducted the inspection of the guest suites, building exterior and restaurant. As team leader, Aaron managed the inspection of the common areas, offices, laundry and sub-contractors. The project was completed on-time, on-budget and caused a minimum amount of interference with the ongoing operation of the hotel.

The client was also very happy with the amount of detail and thoroughness of the 166 page inspection report.
Congratulations to this team of professional inspectors on a job well done!!

Best regards,

Kim & Dave Williams
