EDC - The Bay Area's Premiere
Design and Build Firm
|
|
|
EDC specializes in inspections for residential and
commercial structures in the
Peninsula, Bay
Area, and adjacent areas
of Northern and Southern California. EDC provides engineering
inspections, reports, |
|
|
recommendations, estimates,
construction inspection and
certifications of completed
works.
Foundations are a critical
support system of all
structures and seemingly
small issues can quickly
become significant problems
with repairs that can be
expensive. Current and
future problems can be
avoided by performing a
regular checkup on your
home/structure.
Our typical inspection includes the
exterior, interior, and crawlspace
areas of the structure. We look at
foundation condition, settlement,
drainage, retaining walls and
sub-floors. |
|
 |
|
|
|
ONLY A LICENSED ENGINEER (Civil,
Structural or Geotechnical) can
perform these inspections. Licensed
contractors (general or engineering)
of ANY classification CANNOT comment
on the structural integrity of a
building, retaining wall or soil
stability. |

Professional Advice regarding the
necessity of Structural Repairs
|

|
Buyers |
|
|
Before purchasing a home/structure,
you need to determine its structural
condition to reveal if present or
future repairs are necessary. Many
problems are not easily recognized.
Therefore, for safety and financial
security, you need a professional
structural and drainage inspection
prior to finalizing any real estate
investment. We offer inspections
before, during and after escrow to
afford you flexible timing to
determine and report on potential
issues. |

Current Owners or Sellers |
|
|
Save time by having your
home/structure inspected for
possible structural issues. Find and
fix many problems that might reduce
the safety and value or slow down
the sale of your home/structure.
Avoid last minute surprises during a
buyer’s inspection by having the
inspection performed prior to going
on the market. It is essential that
all defects be disclosed to a seller
prior to closing escrow on a real
estate transaction. Make sure you
are prepared with an EDC structural
and drainage inspection. |
