Structural Assessments
We believe in design at Human Scale. Long after we're gone, people will live, work, and play in the buildings we assess. Not only that, but our recommendations can often have significant effects on due-diligence for real estate deals. We take that responsibility as seriously as if it was our family and our money.
Let us help you sleep easy with our systematic approach to existing building assessments that promises peace of mind through thorough review and clear reports.

Expect a Flexible Framework...
To the experienced eye, a building is easy to read. We’re students of every type of construction that you could run into – from terra-cotta and cast-iron, to steel and concrete, to mass timber or log cabin, we’ve worked on them all. Sometimes though, it takes some time and investigation to coax out the secrets years of renovations hold. We’re equipped for it all.
Traditional engineering can sometimes feel a lot like insurance – something you know you probably need but it can be hard to understand what the money is for! Our approach is rooted in Transparency. We’ll explain exactly why and what our recommendations are.
...and a Depth of Understanding
Our Mission is to make our clients’ lives easier. With structural assessments, we know that our findings don’t always hit that mark because we’re pointing out things that most likely need to be fixed. We know that’s not always easy to digest. We understand buildings, but more than that, we want to know you and understand your needs.
With an deep understanding of your needs and the needs of your building, we can provide timely, thoughtful, economical recommendations.
