Inspections & Site Observation
Structural inspections, progress observation and pre-purchase engineering assessment.
An inspection by a licensed engineer carries weight a general inspection does not. Whether the question is what condition a structure is in, whether work matches the approved drawings, or what a defect actually means, the answer comes with professional judgement behind it.

Common questions
How is this different from a home inspection?
A home inspector reports condition. A licensed engineer gives a professional opinion on structural adequacy and cause, and can seal it.
Can you perform special or controlled inspections?
Yes. Those require a licensed professional, which is part of why the engineering and inspection work sit together here.
