WE SPECIALIZE IN HISTORIC BUILDINGS

Experience Is Key

Historic buildings require special attention and experienced inspectors who understand the building practices of that time.  We consider the context of the time period in which it was built balanced against contemporary, acceptable building practices. 

 

Our experience with historic buildings in North Carolina allows us to provide you with thorough and relevant inspection details that go above and beyond other inspectors.
