Downtown office and mixed-use buildings
Older buildings call for attention to roofs, moisture intrusion, elevators and equipment age, and prior renovations. Share repair history and any known leak locations.

Commercial Building Inspections & PCAs in Mobile, AL
Commercial inspections and ASTM-scoped Property Condition Assessments in Mobile. Understand the condition of a downtown office, warehouse, retail center, or apartment property before you buy, finance, or lease, with Phase I environmental coordination available when your transaction requires it.
A port city with a wide commercial mix
Mobile combines historic downtown office and mixed-use buildings with port-related warehouses and industrial facilities, aerospace and manufacturing at the Brookley Aeroplex, suburban retail and medical offices west of downtown, and a large inventory of apartment properties. That variety means the right scope depends heavily on the building type and the decision you are making.
Warehouses and industrial buildings
Discuss roof systems, overhead and dock doors, slab and drainage, electrical service, and office areas. Process equipment, cranes, and racking are identified for separate evaluation.
Apartments and multifamily
Agree on representative units, roof sections, mechanical equipment, and site components. Rent rolls and maintenance logs help us plan access.
Coordinate building and environmental due diligence
Many Mobile transactions involve both a building-condition review and environmental due diligence. Planning them together simplifies site access.
Building condition
Choose a standard commercial inspection, inspection with five-year capital planning, or a detailed PCA based on lender and investment needs.
Phase I ESA coordination
High Mark coordinates Phase I fieldwork with ETS Environmental & Associates, LLC, which prepares the environmental report. Ask us to quote both together.
Lender requirements
Send written lender instructions before the scope is finalized so we can confirm whether the report format and reliance terms can be met.
Choose the right inspection for your decision
Scope 1 — Focused Systems Review
Answers a defined question about selected building systems. Useful when you need a limited review rather than a property-wide assessment.
Scope 2 — Standard Commercial Inspection
Documents observed conditions in the agreed accessible areas and building systems, with photographs, limitations, and recommendations.
Scope 3 — Inspection + Five-Year Capital Planning
Adds immediate repair-cost opinions and a five-year capital reserve outlook to the commercial inspection, helping you plan ownership expenses.
Scope 4 — Property Condition Assessment
Provides a detailed PCA and Property Condition Report with research and a ten-year planning outlook, as specified in your agreement.
Do you need an ASTM E2018-24 PCA?
An ASTM E2018-24 Property Condition Assessment combines a walk-through survey with document review, interviews, and research to identify material physical deficiencies. The resulting Property Condition Report communicates findings and opinions of costs for suggested remedies. For your Mobile assignment, the proposal defines the research, access, cost-planning period, and reporting requirements.
Send any lender requirements before selecting a scope so we can confirm whether the requested assessment, report format, and reliance terms can be met. A focused inspection is not a substitute for a full PCA. Phase I environmental assessments are separately scoped and quoted; High Mark coordinates fieldwork with the environmental consultant who prepares the environmental report.

Portfolio example · Hawthorne, Florida
Commercial food-storage building
Our Hawthorne assignment covered a 26,580-square-foot facility and documented loading-dock, insulation, and refrigeration-related concerns. It shows why building and specialist-equipment questions should be organized together.

Regional example · Jacksonville, Florida
Mid-century office building
Our Jacksonville office inspection documented moisture intrusion and damage associated with reported roof leakage. The findings show why repair history and accessible interior evidence matter during commercial due diligence.
Read the project details →A report you can use before your next decision
Your report organizes observed conditions, supporting photographs, access limitations, and recommendations. Use it to prepare repair questions, discuss findings with the seller or property team, and arrange further evaluation. Cost opinions and reserve planning are included when specified in the selected scope; they are planning tools, not contractor bids.
Most commercial inspection reports are delivered within 3–5 business days after inspection. Detailed PCAs, larger properties, research, and cost planning may take longer. Your proposal confirms the anticipated delivery date, so share your due diligence deadline before scheduling.
Questions about commercial inspections in Mobile
Can you coordinate a Phase I ESA with the building inspection?
Yes. Phase I environmental assessments are separately scoped and quoted; High Mark coordinates fieldwork with the environmental consultant who prepares the environmental report.
Can you inspect an industrial building with specialized equipment?
We can scope the commercial building and required access. Specialized process equipment, cranes, and engineering evaluations require separate qualified services.
