What is a constructive inspection?

It is a technical review carried out by expert architects to evaluate the actual condition of a property. The inspection is visual, without destructive testing, and includes a thorough analysis of:

  • Structure (load-bearing walls, slabs, beams, deformations)
  • Dampness and associated pathologies
  • Deteriorated finishes and elements at risk
  • Installations (electricity, plumbing, HVAC)
  • Roof, façades, and carpentry
  • Possible unlicensed works or regulatory non-compliance

At Kaitek Arquitectura, architects in Barcelona, we document everything with photographs and detailed records of each deficiency.

“A Construction Inspection will tell us if a crack may imply a risk of structural collapse, what is the most likely cause of a moisture stain, if a building may have aluminosis, etc.”

What will the client get?

At the end of the visit, we deliver a clear and comprehensive report including:

  • Inventory of deficiencies with their level of severity
  • Floor plan or sketch showing the location of damages
  • Technical explanation and operational recommendations
  • Approximate cost estimate of repairs
  • Final conclusion about the property’s condition

Thanks to this information, you can make informed and confident decisions.
