Do I Need A Structural Engineer Inspection? 

A structural engineer inspection becomes essential when you notice signs like bowing walls, cracked foundations, or settlement. 

 

Additionally, it's necessary before major renovations that involve modifying load-bearing elements like walls, columns, or posts. 

 

A structural inspection ensures safety, compliance, and addresses any underlying structural concerns, ensuring your property's stability and adherence to regulations.

 

Scenarios in which you will require a structural engineer inspection:

 

  • Removing load-bearing walls, columns, or teleposts

  • Addressing issues like a cracked foundation, bowing walls, misaligned joists, or cracked beams

 

In essence, whenever making modifications or alterations to any structural component, a structural engineer inspection is essential to ensure safety, compliance, and structural integrity.

What Is A Structural Engineer Inspection? And What Does It Involve? 

A structural engineer inspection is a thorough evaluation conducted by a certified professional to ensure the integrity and safety of a property's weight-bearing elements. 

 

These assessments involve a comprehensive visual examination of critical components, including but not limited to foundations, framing, beams, columns, and posts.

 

Our engineers carefully assess property specifics and customize reports to meet our clients' exact needs. Whether you seek reassurance or require a report for city permit purposes, Structura Vision is dedicated to providing the assistance you need!

When is a structural engineer inspection not required but still beneficial? 

A structural inspection is not always required but there are multiple different cases in which an inspection can be beneficial. 

 

Selling a property:

In the case of selling a property, whether it’s a home or a commercial building, an inspection can give reassurance to the buyer, potentially expediting the closing process and ensuring a smoother transaction.

 

Purchasing a property:

When planning to purchase a property you’re making a big investment and it’s essential to be aware of the structural soundness before putting in an offer. A structural inspection gives you peace of mind knowing that you’re making a safe investment. 

 

Maintaining a property:

Regular structural inspections are vital for proactive property maintenance. An inspection will catch and address issues like leaks, cracks, and structural flaws early on, preventing them from becoming bigger, costlier problems and ensuring the longevity of the building.
