Foundation inspections in Sherman — 40 elevation points, plotted map same visit, P.E. letter when the deal needs it.
Elevation surveys, pre-purchase inspections, and independent licensed P.E. engineer reports for lenders, buyers and builder-warranty claims
From $450 · Survey map delivered before we leave your driveway.
The problem
A buyer's inspector flagged 'possible foundation movement', the lender wants an engineer's letter, or your builder warranty demands documentation — and closing is in two weeks.
An undocumented foundation kills deals. Buyers walk, lenders stall, and warranty clocks run out while everyone argues about whether that crack matters.
We shoot a 40-point elevation survey and hand you the plotted map the same visit. When a certification is required, an independent licensed Texas P.E. reviews the data and issues the letter — typically within 5 business days.

Frequently asked questions
Is the engineer independent, or one of your employees?
Independent. The licensed Texas P.E. is not on our payroll and gets paid the same whether the letter says 'within tolerance' or 'repairs recommended'. That is exactly why lenders accept it.
How fast can I get a letter before closing?
Standard turnaround is 5 business days from the survey. Rush review is usually possible inside Grayson County when a closing date is at risk — tell us the date when you book.
