Home Inspector Found an Issue? Bring In a Licensed Structural Engineer.
Standard home inspections often catch red flags like cracking, foundation shifting, water intrusion, or other conditions that call for a closer look. But general inspectors aren't licensed to weigh in on structural integrity. That's where our team comes in.

- Constructed with wood-frame framing
- Two stories or taller
- Built prior to January 1, 1978
- Includes ground-level parking, garage openings, or open-front wall design
- Shows signs of soft-story, weak-story, or open-front wall vulnerabilities
