Construction Defect Evaluation Professionals
From high rise condominiums to single family residences, industrial complexes to agricultural grain bins and everything in between, the construction of structures and the associated infrastructure is a complex endeavor. Navigating the details of how a potential construction deficiency occurred, and the context of the environment it occurred within, can be even more complex.

Using a multi-disciplinary approach, our investigators can recognize, evaluate, analyze, and consider the cause of damage to buildings as a result of potential deficiencies with the construction, design, and/or material compatibility of its components.
