About Our Residential Structural Inspection Services

 

We work with homeowners and investors to provide a range of residential services from basic structural inspections to full scale 3D modeling of the existing structure using non-destructive techniques.  Structures are built using a wide range of materials, so we utilize a range of the latest technologies to properly assess your properties.  All assessments can be followed up with a structural engineer's report.

 

Some of our residential inspection services include:

 

• Structural Engineering

  • ​Structural engineering design

  • Structural evaluation of existing conditions

  • Generation of As-Built drawings

• Foundation Investigations

  • Foundation inspections to determine need and/or extent of foundation repair

    • Determine type of reinforcing and grade beam locations in slab foundations. Locate reinforcing, post-tension cables, utilities, conduit, voids, etc. in concrete slabs and the subgrade.

    • Variable settlement - determine precise settlement throughout the structure

    • Verify depth and size of structural reinforcing if necessary

  • Review of foundation repair plans generated by foundation repair contractors

• Masonry Investigations

  • Determine proper placement of brickties for brick, stone, or block facades

  • Verify proper reinforcing and filled cells for concrete masonry (CMU) walls using non-destructive techniques
