The roof should have a generous slope to allow drainage to gutters.

Gutters and Downspouts

Are they the proper size to provide drainage?
Are the gutters and downpouts securely attached to the buildings?
Are there a sufficient number of downpouts to drain water from gutter?

Is the downspout connected to storm drain or a downspout extension to drain water away from the building?

Site

Is the ground surrounding the building sloped towards the building?
Is water pooling around the base of the building?
Can a trench be dug to provide additional underground drainage away from building, usually 4-10 feet from building?

Foundation

Are there visible cracks or signs of settling?
What is the material and its condition?

Walls

Are there visible cracks?
Are the walls leaning or bulging out of plane?
Are there any areas where the structural integrity of the wall has been compromised, such as large amounts of brick missing from a brick wall?
What is the wall construction material?

Sign

Is the sign externally or internally lit?
Is the sign securely attached to the building?
