Foundation Repair Engineer
When it’s time to get your future home or business inspected, you’ll definitely want to work with someone who has a lot of hands-on experience with buildings. Aside from conducting thousands of successful inspections, Mark has been a foundation repair engineer for 15 years.
Why Does this Matter?
The foundation is one of the most critical aspects of every building. If there’s a leak, a break, or any other issues, it can severely impact the rest of the home. With Mark’s experience, he’s able to offer something most other home inspectors can’t: a skilled, first-hand foundation assessment.
