Photo Documentation Reports

Photo Documentation Reports

Engineering-reviewed structural photo documentation reports for insurance claims, storm or water damage, legal proceedings, real estate disclosures, and ongoing property condition records.

When a property needs a professional record of its structural condition, for an insurance claim, a legal proceeding, a disclosure, or ongoing condition monitoring, a photo documentation report from a licensed structural engineer provides a clear, organized, professionally prepared account of what was observed. StructSolve documents structural conditions with organized photographs and engineering commentary. Our reports record what was observed at the time of the visit, by a licensed PE, in a format that insurers, attorneys, property managers, and real estate professionals can use.
