What Statutory Inspections Does a Commercial Building Require?

1. asset register and building use.
2. risk assessments and duty-holder records.
3. manufacturer and insurer requirements.
4. current inspection certificates and open defects.

Build a property-specific compliance register that identifies the requirement, asset, responsible person, frequency basis and evidence. Review it when the property or equipment changes.

Define the person who can authorise work, the access conditions and the outcome required. Where the subject affects safety, security or compliance, use the competent assessment and premises-specific information required for that system.

Keep the instruction, findings, action taken, completion evidence and any open recommendation with its owner and due date.

Give the property, exact asset or area, symptoms or trigger, previous findings and current restrictions. Include relevant drawings, manuals or reports where available.

No. The applicable duty, risk assessment, system design, recognised guidance, manufacturer instructions and actual condition determine the property-specific requirement.

It should identify the work or assessment performed, findings, results, defects and outstanding action clearly enough for the responsible person to decide what happens next.

Use the relevant commercial route, browse maintenance and contact the responsible business with the site-specific requirement.

See current official guidance. Apply it to the actual premises and recheck current requirements before relying on time-sensitive details.
