Single Item Inspections


This inspection can be flexible. If you only need a single component reviewed, such as a roof/attic/heating system/etc. we can review it and point you in the right direction.

As a Registered Architect, we offer structural certifications. Sometimes another opinion is needed to determine if a structural issue is a minor or more significant concern. Our background in Architecture and 40 years of performing inspections gives us good experience for this service.
