What a building inspection covers
External wall issues are often only visible up close, and the higher the building, the more expensive that used to be to check.

Balconies and walkways
Condition of balustrades, decking and drainage at height.
Parapets and copings
Displaced coping stones and open joints at roof edges.
Movement joints
Failed sealant and visible movement at expansion joints.
Window and door surrounds
Cracking or staining around openings that points to water ingress.
Staining and efflorescence
Visible signs of water tracking down the facade from a specific source.
