Honest Answers When You Need Them Most

Penn Valley Engineering (PVE) offers structural investigative services to anyone that may require a thorough inspection or recommendation. We often get these types of requests from attorneys and insurance adjusters.

Come to us first. When a structural evaluation is performed and an issue is determined, a practical solution may also be needed to resolve the matter. While a contractor will most likely be necessary for repairs, don’t go to them first. They are not qualified to determine the full extent of what is required. Only a licensed professional engineer can provide an educated opinion as to how to achieve structural integrity. Furthermore, since signed and sealed drawings from a licensed engineer are usually mandatory, contacting PVE first provides a solution that contractors can bid on accurately and fairly. Extend the service life of your structure by allowing us to provide structural investigative and forensic services.
