Is A Structural Inspection Right for You?

Inspections

Here are some common reasons to schedule a structural inspection.

Pre-Purchase Inspection: Before buying a property, individuals often conduct a structural inspection to ensure they are aware of any existing or potential issues. This helps buyers make informed decisions about the property’s condition.

Pre-Sale Inspection: Sellers may choose to have a structural inspection done before listing their property. This allows them to identify and address any issues proactively, potentially increasing the property’s market value and speeding up the selling process.

Renovations or Remodeling: If you’re planning significant renovations or remodeling projects, a structural inspection can help ensure that the existing structure can support the proposed changes. It also helps identify any structural issues that may need attention during the renovation process.

Home Maintenance: Regular structural inspections as part of routine home maintenance can catch issues early, preventing them from becoming more significant and costly problems over time. This proactive approach helps maintain the long-term integrity of the property.

Visible Signs of Damage: Visible signs of structural issues, such as cracks in walls, uneven floors, or sagging roofs, may prompt homeowners to seek a structural inspection. These signs can indicate underlying problems that need professional attention.

Natural Disasters: After harsh environmental events such as a freeze, heavy winds and storms, or earthquakes, it’s crucial to assess the structural integrity of a property. Structural inspections can identify damage caused by these events and help formulate a plan for repairs or reinforcement.

Settlement or Shifting: If a property experiences soil settlement or shifting, it can impact the foundation and structural components. A structural inspection can assess the extent of the settlement and recommend appropriate measures to address the issue.

Insurance Requirements: Some insurance companies may require a structural inspection as part of the underwriting process, especially for older homes or properties with a history of structural concerns. This ensures that the property is insurable and meets safety standards.

Code Compliance: If you plan to make changes to your property or if you’re unsure whether it complies with local building codes, a structural inspection can provide clarity. This is important for maintaining safety and ensuring adherence to legal requirements.

Peace of Mind: For home or building owners who simply want reassurance about the overall condition of their property, a structural inspection offers peace of mind. Knowing that the structure is sound can alleviate concerns and help plan for future maintenance or improvements.

What’s the Difference Between a Structural Inspection and a General home inspection?

This is a common question and an important distinction that many people aren’t aware of.

Unlike a general property home inspection, a structural engineer inspection goes beyond surface-level evaluations. While a property inspector provides a report on the overall condition of a property, they lack the qualifications to delve into the intricacies of structural changes. A property inspector is not qualified to review structural changes.

On the other hand, a structural inspection is performed by a licensed structural engineer. This type of inspection is designed to assess the integrity of a building’s structure, identifying potential issues related to load-bearing components, foundations, and other structural elements. The comprehensive nature of a structural engineer inspection ensures a thorough examination of the property’s structural soundness, offering a more specialized and in-depth assessment compared to a general property home inspection.

This kind of inspection is often separate from a property inspection and is often required for structural modifications, real estate transactions, and other projects.

We had a great experience. The Engineer exceeded expectations, and answered all of my questions. He answered his phone and/or returned calls and emails timely. Our project was done ahead of time and accurately. We will be using Level Engineering again.

Level saved me thousands. If you think you have foundation problems, get an unbiased engineer to check it first.
Justin Cook
Jolease came to my home to do a structural inspection. She was very thorough and answered all of my questions about the structural integrity of my home after some cracks, etc were becoming a concern. It was well worth the expense to have the inspection and be told that the cracks we were seeing are superficial and nothing that should be keeping me up at night. I highly recommend Level Engineering’s services.
Jordan T.
Everything about their customer service and technical expertise was outstanding. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing structural engineering or other building-related engineering services.
Scott T.
Take my advice. If you suspect a structural issue with your home make the investment to get an objective opinion on the necessary repairs before reaching out to any contractors.

When you're a small business owner and know your craft, but are suddenly expected to understand and navigate building code, inspections, engineering and architecture, it can be daunting and exasperating. Level Engineering is not only professional, but kind, helpful, efficient, and reasonable. They have made me feel like a person, taught me a lot, and brought forth customer service in an industry that is not well known for it. I am very thankful for their amicability, awareness of time being of the essence, and overall courteous nature. May they serve as an example for the rest of the industry. They're a breath of fresh air! Highly recommend!
