Buildings and Facilities Services
Designed Around Structure, Site, and Use
Building and facility projects depend on more than the structure itself. TULLOCH helps owners, property managers, architects, developers, institutions, municipalities, and contractors align site planning, building design, construction requirements, ground conditions, and long-term community priorities so buildings perform well over time.
Why Work With TULLOCH?
One Team Across the Building Lifecycle
Design Through Construction
Coordinated engineering, surveying, planning, environmental, and field support connects technical requirements from feasibility through completion.
Entire Site Function
We consider how the building, site, access, servicing, parking, drainage, and user needs work together to support safe, efficient daily use.
Long-Term Asset Planning
Condition assessments and technical findings inform maintenance, rehabilitation, expansion, budgeting, and future capital investment.

Buildings and Facilities FAQs
Helpful information includes the property location, intended use, available drawings, known building concerns, proposed changes, budget range, schedule, and any previous inspection or assessment reports. When information is limited, TULLOCH can help identify the initial review, survey, investigation, or assessment required.
The appropriate assessment depends on the concern and the decision being made. A structural inspection may focus on specific components or performance issues. A property condition assessment provides a broader review for maintenance, due diligence, or capital planning. Building envelope, geotechnical, environmental, or other specialized reviews may also be required.
Yes, but not for residential clients. TULLOCH can review available records and existing conditions for commercial, institutional, industrial, and multi-residential properties to identify structural, building envelope, environmental, geotechnical, servicing, and site-related concerns that may affect a purchase, renovation, expansion, or redevelopment.
Yes. Depending on the assignment, TULLOCH can coordinate structural, civil, geotechnical, environmental, planning, surveying, materials testing, inspection, and construction support through one connected project team.
Early review can help identify access limitations, safety requirements, temporary conditions, construction sequencing, service interruptions, and user needs. These considerations can inform the design and implementation approach before work begins.
