INDUSTRIAL WAREHOUSE & LOGISTICS FACILITY INSPECTIONS.
Heavy-duty commercial due diligence for industrial warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturing facilities. Heavy slab flatness, dock levelers, 480V 3-phase switchgear, overhead crane rails, and fire pumps.
Meet Inspector Mack & The Secured Team
Every commercial facility assessment is led directly by senior inspectors using calibrated industrial instrumentation. We evaluate low-slope TPO/EPDM roof assemblies via radiometric drone thermography, scan 480V 3-phase switchgear busbars under load, audit packaged RTU arrays, and document deferred capital liabilities to defend your NOI and underwriting.

Warehouse Diligence: Slabs, Loading Docks & 480V Power
Inspector Mack breaks down the critical structural and electrical systems of industrial logistics facilities.
"Forklifts will destroy a cracked concrete warehouse slab in 12 months. If control joints are spalled and unlevel, high-reach order pickers will tip and inventory will be damaged. We measure concrete floor flatness."
WHAT WE SPECIFICALLY AUDIT & DELIVER
Our forensic checklist exceeds standard minimum requirements. Every component is rigorously evaluated and cataloged with high-resolution imagery and severity tiers:
Heavy Industrial Concrete Slab & Control Joints
Evaluating slab cracking, joint spalling from forklift wheels, floor levelness, chemical staining, and column base plates.
Loading Dock Levelers, Doors & Truck Aprons
Testing hydraulic/mechanical dock levelers, dock seals, shelter cushions, overhead door openers, and concrete truck aprons.
480V 3-Phase Industrial Power & Busway Systems
Auditing main switchboards, step-down transformers, overhead busway power drops, grounding grids, and phase rotation.
ESFR Fire Sprinklers & High-Capacity Fire Pumps
Checking Early Suppression Fast Response (ESFR) risers, diesel fire pumps, water reservoirs, and standpipe valves.
Metal Siding, Precast Panels & Roof Systems
Inspecting standing-seam metal roofs, R-panel fastener gaskets, tilt-wall concrete expansion joints, and skylight panels.
High-Bay Ventilation, Louvers & Office HVAC
Evaluating industrial exhaust fans, motorized air intake louvers, gas unit heaters, and dedicated office HVAC systems.
Emergency Egress Pathways & Hazardous Storage
Auditing illuminated exit paths, eye-wash stations, flammable storage lockers, and OSHA-compliant guardrails.
Immediate Repairs & 10-Year CapEx Schedule
Comprehensive capital expenditure forecasting for dock leveler overhauls, slab joint rebuilds, and roof coatings.
Texas Gulf Coast Environmental Defect Matrix
Southeast Texas structures face unique environmental stressors that generic national inspection checklists routinely overlook. We specialize in identifying these regional failure modes:
Severe Warehouse Slab Control Joint Spalling
Heavy forklift traffic passing over unfilled concrete expansion joints breaks away the concrete edges.
Water Intrusion in Hydraulic Dock Leveler Pits
Poor exterior truck court drainage directs storm runoff into loading dock pits, submerging hydraulic pumps and motors.
Overheating Dry-Type Industrial Transformer
Operating undersized dry-type transformers near full electrical load without adequate ventilation.
Advanced Diagnostic Equipment Suite
Human eyes alone miss hidden electrical hotspots, subterranean pipe collapses, and millimeter-level slab deflections. Every Secured Inspections vehicle is equipped with industrial instrumentation:
Concrete Floor Flatness F-Meter
Measures concrete slab surface profile and joint spall depth per ASTM E1155.
3-Phase Power Quality & Rotation Tester
Verifies voltage balance, phase sequence, and harmonic distortion across industrial power panels.
FLIR® High-Temp Industrial Camera
Scans high-voltage transformers, switchgear, and motor control centers under full industrial load.
Commercial Aerial Inspection Drone
Evaluates multi-acre industrial standing seam metal roofs, exhaust vents, and exterior tilt-wall joints.
Actual Field Finding & Financial Impact
Here is an authentic defect documented in our recent inspections, demonstrating how our forensic reports deliver tangible financial leverage:
Overheating Industrial Transformer & Spalled Dock Leveler Pits
Our industrial audit discovered that the primary 480V dry-type transformer was operating at 184°F due to severe dust accumulation and an undersized cooling fan. In the truck court, 3 dock leveler pits had standing water corroding the hydraulic lift cylinders.
Frequently Asked Questions: Warehouse & Industrial Facility Inspections
Everything you need to know about this inspection scope, scheduling timeline, and Texas legal protections:
Q1What does an industrial warehouse inspection cover?▼
We inspect all heavy commercial components: concrete slab flatness, loading docks, overhead roll-up doors, high-voltage 480V 3-phase electrical systems, ESFR fire sprinklers, industrial ventilation, standing-seam metal roofs, and office buildouts.
Q2Why is concrete floor flatness important in a warehouse?▼
High-reach forklifts and order pickers operate at heights of 25 to 35 feet. If the concrete floor is uneven or has spalled joints, minor floor deviations are magnified, causing forklifts to sway and risking rack collisions.
Q3Do you inspect loading dock levelers and overhead doors?▼
Yes. We test hydraulic, air-bag, and mechanical dock levelers, dock seals, bumpers, truck restraints, and motorized overhead sectional doors.
Q4Can you verify electrical service capacity for manufacturing equipment?▼
Yes. We evaluate the main incoming service capacity (amperage and voltage), transformer ratings, motor control centers, and phase rotation to ensure power compatibility.
Q5What is an ESFR fire sprinkler system?▼
Early Suppression Fast Response (ESFR) fire sprinkler systems deliver high volumes of water at high pressure to extinguish high-rack warehouse fires without in-rack sprinkler heads. We inspect riser assemblies and fire pumps.
Q6How does your industrial report assist in lease or purchase negotiations?▼
Our ASTM E2018-24 report delivers an objective Table of Probable Costs for immediate and 10-year capital requirements, giving you the documentation needed to negotiate purchase price reductions or landlord tenant improvement allowances.
