More questions
about this service.
Is an inspection the same as a structural certification?
No. A general condition inspection does not automatically constitute engineering sign-off.
Can repairs be recommended after a check?
Yes. The findings can help define which parts need strengthening, repair or replacement.
What if a newel post moves during inspection?
The railing should not be relied upon until the cause of the movement has been addressed.
