A licensed engineer's stamped opinion.
When the stakes are high, a structural engineer evaluates the foundation and frame, and writes a signed report with the cause, the repair plan and the details for permits.
- Timeline: Days to weeks
- Output: Stamped report
- Scope: Cause, severity and repair plan
What it is, and why it matters.
An engineer's report is an independent evaluation. It identifies the cause, rates the severity and specifies repairs, which helps with insurance claims, real estate deals, permits and disputes.
We arrange for a licensed structural engineer, prepare the property and coordinate repairs to the engineer's design, so the work is built the way the report calls for.
