Types of Inspections

At VTEC, we specialize in the following types of inspections:

• Fire Codes: We deliver industry-leading evaluations of fire codes and assessments of building regulations. Our experienced team will check your facility’s fire codes for compliance with applicable code, review existing labels for exit areas and ensure your structure complies to applicable building regulations. We’ll then provide a comprehensive report and recommendation.
• Product Safety: We provide thorough safety testing of products, from building materials and furnishings to medical devices and aerospace items. Our ISO 17025, 17065, and 17020 accredited facility can adapt to a variety of testing standards, including those from the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and the International Standards Organization (ISO).

Turnaround times for inspections are around two weeks, but we can expedite this process if needed.
