Forensic Engineering · PE · Licensed in WA
The two calls we get most
Code & red tag notices: the city or county posted a notice and wants an engineer. Disputes & litigation: two sides disagree about a building. We look at the facts and put it in writing.
Who calls us
Homeowners, landlords and property managers, attorneys, contractors, and real estate agents when a problem turns up during a sale.
How it works
You call and tell us what happened. We check for conflicts, visit the site with measurements and photos, tell you what we found (often by phone first), then write it up as a short letter or full report.
How we bill
Defined work gets a fixed price. Code, red tag and forensic work runs under a short hourly agreement. We estimate likely hours up front and tell you before it goes over.
Straight answers
We are paid for our time, not for a conclusion. If what we find does not help your side, we will tell you early. We do not give legal advice; for that you need an attorney.
Don't fix it yet
If you can, call before the repair. Once the damage is gone nobody can look at it again. If something is unsafe and cannot wait, take lots of photos and keep the removed pieces.
