We perform all projects from large to small, including emergency work and certifications of all kinds.
As a state licensed and insured contractor, we are certified to evaluate and diagnose most areas of structural concern. We provide a 48 hour response for repairs and certifications and can have all your paperwork faxed directly to the title company for processing. For a flat fee, ($150-250 depending on location) we will look at the cited damage and provide the Certification Report or invoice for repairs to you and the lender. This allows the buyers or sellers to pay for the repairs or certification at settlement.
In addition to structural and roof certifications, we may also provide well potability certifications, insect certifications, and septic certifications. We can also assist you in any mold concerns.
