We respond within one business day, usually faster. By submitting, you consent to receive a one-time proposal email or call. You won't be added to any marketing list. See our Privacy Policy.
We schedule the site visit within 3–5 days. A licensed Professional Engineer inspects exactly what the requesting party needs certified.
Your certification letter is signed, sealed, and delivered as a submission-ready PDF within 24 hours of the site visit.
When included in the engagement, we submit the letter and respond to reasonable clarification requests related to the original scope.

Structural-condition and cause-of-damage evaluations prepared to address the insurer’s documented request.
Engineering evaluations related to flood openings and applicable building requirements. Elevation certificates and land-surveying services are prepared by appropriately licensed surveyors.
The engineering letters your municipality requires before issuing a Certificate of Use.
Our letters are signed and sealed by a Florida-licensed Professional Engineer. Before the site visit, we review the requesting party’s notice, checklist, or written requirements so the letter addresses the defined request as closely as possible. Final acceptance remains subject to the reviewing party.
Site visit within 3–5 days of your request, and the signed-and-sealed letter delivered as a submission-ready PDF within 24 hours of the visit. If your deadline is tighter, tell us — same-week turnaround is our normal pace, and we'll tell you honestly if a date isn't achievable.
Every letter is a fixed fee, quoted before you commit — no hourly billing. The fee depends on what's being certified and the size of the property. Send us the request you received and you'll have a fixed-fee proposal within one business day.
We document the conditions that prevent certification and explain the corrective action or additional evaluation required. When appropriate, we can prepare the necessary engineering documents, coordinate with the owner’s licensed contractor, and reinspect the completed work before issuing the final certification.
Yes. This is one of the most common situations we handle — unpermitted or undocumented work discovered during a sale, refinance, or Certificate of Use inspection. We evaluate the visible and verifiable as-built conditions. Certification may require records, testing, calculations, selective access, or additional investigation, particularly when work is concealed.
A permit is the city's authorization for work; a certification letter is a licensed engineer's sealed professional opinion about existing conditions or completed work. Cities often require the letter as part of closing an open permit, legalizing unpermitted work, or issuing a Certificate of Use — the letter supports the permit process, it doesn't replace it.
Yes. If corrective work is required, we can define the engineering requirements, prepare or coordinate supporting permit documents, communicate with the owner’s licensed contractor, and inspect the completed work for certification. Construction pricing and contractor selection remain separate from the engineering evaluation.
We serve all of Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties — every municipality. If your request comes from a city building department, we format and submit the letter to that department's specific requirements.
The property address and a copy of whatever you received — the city notice, the insurance request, the lender's condition sheet, or simply a description of what needs to be certified. That's enough for a fixed-fee proposal within one business day.
If the requesting party asks for reasonable clarification related to the original scope, we respond and revise the letter as appropriate. Requests involving additional investigation, testing, design, or expanded certification may require a supplemental scope.
