What is an ISO building inspection?

The Insurance Services Office (ISO) performs building inspections to apprise insurance carriers and property owners about the risks associated with the structure. The buildings are rated from ISO-1 through ISO-6, subject to inspections. The ISO Building Code Effectiveness Grading Schedule (BCEGS®) program is used to inspect properties for compliance with building codes. An ISO building inspection enables underwriters to charge appropriate premiums and stay competitive.
