Chapel Hill Commercial Property Market

Chapel Hill's commercial inventory is small relative to Raleigh or Durham but heavily institutional. Roof and envelope assemblies span historic university buildings, modern medical buildouts, and contemporary research facilities — each demanding different thermography techniques.

Institutional facilities groups need defensible, non-invasive condition data that can survive long capital-planning cycles. A single annual radiometric thermal survey produces a year-over-year record of envelope condition that scales across multi-building campuses.
