Exterior building inspection log
Twelve questions per elevation, one dated sheet per walk.
Walls and cladding, pointing and sealants, gutters and downpipes, exterior doors and stairs, paving, lighting and signage — against the elevations and areas you actually walk. Twelve questions somebody can answer with their eyes. It is not a structural or building-envelope inspection and issues no opinion on whether anything is sound.
What the exterior building inspection log is for
Walls and cladding, pointing and sealants, gutters and downpipes, exterior doors and stairs, paving, lighting and signage — against the elevations and areas you actually walk. Twelve questions somebody can answer with their eyes. It is not a structural or building-envelope inspection and issues no opinion on whether anything is sound. The thing you came to do is “walk the outside”, and this is the page that does it.
It is filed under maintenance & work — dispatching, doing and proving the physical work — and under “inspect something”, which is walk it, check it, record what you found. There is one page for it, at this address, however you arrived.
When people reach for it
- Twelve questions per elevation, one dated sheet per walk — people arrive here typing “exterior”, “outside the building”, “building exterior”.
