Customer Review:

“The inspection reports were easy to understand, and the presentation was wonderful, Thank you! This whole process has been a long time coming; it’s just difficult for our clients to understand it; their mentality is usually, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” But bringing their properties up to code, and ensuring the structural integrity of the building elements, is best for the safety of our tenants and the general upkeep of the property”.
