Here’s What We Do
Milestone Inspections
With every moment your building is aging. Conditions like salt, humidity, and time never stop working against your structure. Our milestone inspection services give you clear, honest assessments backed by decades of real-world structural engineering expertise.
We help property managers and HOAs in the area stay compliant, proactive, and fully informed before small issues turn into costly emergencies. Trust our licensed structural engineers to guide you through every milestone inspection with accuracy and transparency.
Structural Integrity Reserve Studies (SIRS)
We take the uncertainty out of long-term planning by translating complex SIRS data into simple, actionable guidance your board can trust. Our structural engineer team evaluates future repairs, replacement timelines, funding needs, and capital planning with total transparency.
The result is a reserve study built on accuracy, not assumptions. Let us turn SIRS requirements into a straightforward action plan your board can use to maintain compliance and financial health year after year.
Your Beach & Waterfront Specialists
Waterfront and coastal buildings in South Florida face some of the harshest structural conditions in the country, and they require more than standard engineering. With over four decades of experience in saltwater intrusion, corrosion, and high-wind structural engineering, we deliver tailored solutions that truly fit beachfront living.
From high-rises to quaint oceanfront communities, we engineer durability that stands up to Florida’s relentless coastal environment, and we do it with the precision and care that only a licensed structural engineer with decades of coastal expertise can provide!
40 Year Inspection
A 40 year building recertification is one of the most critical moments in your property’s lifespan, and it deserves expert oversight. We make your 40 year inspection and 40 year recertification process smoother, faster, and more predictable with comprehensive structural engineering evaluations.
Acting as your owner’s advocate, we coordinate with architects, contractors, and city officials to keep the process compliant, organized, and stress-free from start to finish.
Concrete Restoration
Cracked, spalling, or deteriorating concrete is a warning sign of deeper structural issues. Our concrete restoration services merge engineering precision with field-tested repair strategies that restore strength and prevent future damage.
