What We Do

Commercial Inspection Services
San Antonio & Bexar County

From ASTM E2018 Property Condition Assessments to foundation evaluations on San Antonio’s notoriously challenging clay soils — we cover every scope of commercial due diligence.

01
Property Condition Assessment (PCA)
Full ASTM E2018 baseline PCAs covering structure, roofing, building envelope, HVAC, electrical, plumbing, life safety, site, EPCs, and remaining useful life. The standard report for acquisitions, refinancing, and lender due diligence in San Antonio.
ASTM E2018 Compliant
02
Due Diligence Inspection
Pre-acquisition commercial building inspections for buyers, investors, private equity, and 1031 exchange transactions. Structured to satisfy lender requirements and give decision-makers clear, defensible findings before closing.
03
Foundation Inspection
Critical in San Antonio. Expansive clay soils — Austin Chalk and Taylor Marl formations — create foundation movement unlike almost anywhere else in Texas. We document current condition, settlement patterns, drainage, and deferred risk before you close.
SA Clay Soils Expertise
04
Thermal Imaging & Infrared
Infrared thermography identifies hidden moisture intrusion, roofing anomalies, HVAC performance gaps, and electrical hot spots invisible to a standard visual inspection. Especially valuable in San Antonio’s aging medical office and multifamily stock.
05
Draw Inspection
Construction progress inspections for lenders and investors funding development along the I-35 corridor, the northwest Medical Center submarket, and elsewhere across Bexar and Comal counties. Rapid-turnaround reports to keep draws moving.
06
Mold & IAQ Assessment
Commercial mold assessments and indoor air quality sampling for medical office, office, retail, and multifamily properties. San Antonio’s humidity patterns and older building stock make mold risk a material due diligence consideration on many assets.
The San Antonio Market

Every Demand Driver
Creates Different Risk

San Antonio’s commercial market is fueled by a rare combination of military, medical, industrial, and tech demand. Each sector brings distinct building types, construction vintages, and inspection considerations. A commercial inspector without local market context misses what matters.

✈

Joint Base San Antonio

Nation’s largest joint base. JBSA’s Fort Sam Houston, Lackland, and Randolph installations anchor a surrounding corridor of medical, office, multifamily, and support commercial properties — many built across multiple decades with deferred maintenance histories.

🏥

South Texas Medical Center

One of the largest medical complexes in the US. The northwest Medical Center corridor along I-10 holds over 200 medical office buildings — a high-complexity inspection environment with demanding MEP systems, code compliance considerations, and patient-occupied occupancy.

🚚

I-35 Industrial Corridor

Fastest-growing industrial market in Texas. Cibolo, Schertz, New Braunfels, and the Frontera Logistics Supersite are absorbing hundreds of millions in new industrial investment. New construction and fast-moving acquisition timelines demand rapid, accurate PCAs.

💻

Data Centers & Cybersecurity

Medina County data center cluster expanding. Microsoft, Vantage, and CyrusOne are building in San Antonio’s western corridor. Data center inspections are among the most technically demanding scope — critical systems, specialized MEP, and zero tolerance for documentation gaps.

Asset Classes

Every Property Type
Across Greater San Antonio

We inspect all commercial asset classes — from strip centers to industrial campuses, from Class B office to medical office towers and data centers.

San Antonio Soil Risk

Foundation Inspection Is Not Optional in San Antonio

San Antonio sits on some of the most challenging foundation soils in Texas. Any commercial due diligence that skips foundation evaluation is incomplete — full stop.

Austin Chalk & Taylor Marl geology underlie most of Bexar County. Both formations contain highly expansive clays that shrink in drought and swell with rain — creating cyclical differential movement in slabs and foundations year after year.
Older commercial properties near downtown, the Medical Center, and military corridors frequently show undisclosed settlement, wall separation, and deferred drainage remediation — all of which need to be on record before acquisition or refinancing.
I-35 corridor construction in Cibolo, Schertz, and New Braunfels sits on expanding limestone and Blackland Prairie soils that require careful attention during construction and PCAs alike.
Thermal imaging & drainage review paired with foundation inspection reveals moisture-driven risk that standard visual inspections miss — especially around slab perimeters and below-grade mechanical areas.

FOUNDATION RISK INDICATORS WE DOCUMENT

  • ●Visible slab cracking, pattern cracking, and heave
  • ●Door & window frame racking and binding
  • ●Wall separation at corners and control joints
  • ●Stair-step cracking in masonry / CMU
  • ●Drainage slope toward foundation
  • ●Evidence of prior repair or underpinning
  • ●Soil saturation & ponding near perimeter
  • ●Thermal anomalies beneath slab & at grade

Frequently Asked

San Antonio Commercial Inspection
Questions & Answers

What does a commercial property inspection in San Antonio cost?
Pricing depends on property type, square footage, building age, and inspection scope. For San Antonio commercial properties, TexaPlex fees typically start around $950 for small properties under 5,000 sf and scale up from there based on complexity. Our pricing runs 20–25% below national engineering firms while maintaining full ASTM E2018 compliance. For a planning-level estimate, use our free PCA Price Estimator or submit a request for a custom proposal.
Do you inspect properties near Joint Base San Antonio (JBSA)?
Yes. We inspect commercial properties across all submarkets surrounding JBSA — Fort Sam Houston, Lackland AFB, and Randolph AFB — as well as the broader military-adjacent commercial corridors. These areas have a mix of older government-adjacent office, multifamily, and support commercial properties, many with deferred maintenance worth documenting before acquisition or refinancing.
Why is foundation inspection so critical for commercial properties in San Antonio?
San Antonio’s geology — Austin Chalk, Taylor Marl, and Blackland Prairie clay formations — creates highly expansive soil conditions. This means foundation movement in response to moisture changes is expected across most of Bexar County. Any commercial acquisition without a proper foundation evaluation in San Antonio is incomplete due diligence and carries undisclosed risk. We document current condition, active movement indicators, drainage issues, and prior repair history.
How quickly can I get a commercial inspection quote?
Submit a request through our contact form and we typically respond with a custom proposal within 24 hours. If you have a lender deadline or accelerated due diligence timeline, note that in your request and we will prioritize accordingly. For a preliminary estimate before submitting, use our PCA Price Estimator.
Do you serve New Braunfels, Boerne, Schertz, and the I-35 corridor?
Yes — the I-35 corridor from San Antonio through Cibolo, Schertz, and New Braunfels is one of the most active inspection markets we serve, driven by the surge in industrial and logistics development in 2025 and beyond. We also cover Kendall County (Boerne, Fair Oaks Ranch) and Comal County (Bulverde, Spring Branch) for commercial clients. If your property is within 60 miles of downtown San Antonio, submit a request.
What commercial property types do you inspect in San Antonio?
All of them. We inspect office buildings, medical office, retail and strip centers, industrial and warehouse facilities, multifamily complexes, hotels, mixed-use developments, churches, self-storage facilities, data centers, flex/R&D space, and special-use properties across San Antonio and Bexar County. Property type affects pricing and scope — use the estimator or submit a request for an exact proposal.
What ASTM standard do you follow for commercial PCAs?
TexaPlex follows the ASTM E2018 Standard Guide for Property Condition Assessments — the nationally recognized standard for commercial real estate due diligence. Our Property Condition Reports (PCRs) include the full walk-through survey, document review, Estimated Probable Costs (EPCs) for deficiencies, remaining useful life assessments, and an executive summary formatted for lenders, investors, and brokers. We are TREC-licensed and commercially certified.
Can I get a commercial inspection for a property I’m refinancing or managing?
Absolutely. PCAs are not only for acquisitions. Lenders routinely require them for refinancing. Owners use them for CapEx planning and deferred maintenance budgeting. Property managers use them as baseline condition documentation. We work with buyers, sellers, lenders, asset managers, and operators across all commercial real estate use cases. Submit a request and tell us how you intend to use the report — we will scope accordingly.
