Structural Inspection

A structural inspection is an visual inspection of the different elements of a home including the bearing walls, beams and columns, floor slabs, framing, crawlspace areas and others, just to name a few. Structural inspections are best done by licensed professional engineers because it is only they who are able to truly assess and detect any problems that need addressing. Usually, these licensed professional engineers look for signs of movement, damage or distress that have the ability to negatively affect the rest of the structure.

Key benefits to having a structural inspection:

• Structural inspections are more in-depth than standard home inspections when it comes to the condition of the general framework of the house.
• When structural inspections lead to structural repair designs, the structural inspection report can be used as a basis for the new design.
• Regularly having one’s home structurally inspected is crucial to upholding the safety of one’s home.

Capabilities

• EDP engineers are trained and ready to pinpoint structural concerns associated with not only residential but also commercial buildings. These engineers are also fully capable of detecting future problems that have not yet manifested themselves.
• Due to our qualifications, EDP engineers are fully licensed to identify concerns and legally render opinions on issues, unlike home inspectors or appraisers.
