Structural fires represent a substantial and sometimes catastrophic loss for the families and businesses affected. Moreover, navigating the insurance and building department requirements for remediating the damage can be a significant financial as well as emotional challenge. With this in mind, MSD professional Engineering, Inc. recognizes that proper organization and implementation of the post-fire structural investigation is crucial to helping our clients get their homes and businesses back together.

MSD Professional Engineering, Inc. works with property owners, insurance agents, government agencies and remediation contractors help the repair and rebuild process work as seamlessly as possible. Our investigations can start shortly after the fire is extinguished and our remediation engineering can continue through to the construction of the new or repaired structure.

Ultimately, our goal is to properly evaluate the extent of the structural damage to our clients' fire damaged building and work with the professionals involved to see that the repair work provides a rebuilt system free of fire damaged materials and connections.
