Ensuring Quality Foundation Repairs with Independent 3rd Party Structural Engineers

Why Liftech Uses 3rd Party Independent Structural Engineers

Integrity Over Self-Interest

Multiple Subject Matter Experts

As a Colorado homeowner, you deserve the peace of mind that comes with multiple expert opinions on your foundation repair. The more eyes on your project, the better the outcome. At Liftech, we can connect you with trusted local independent engineers who understand Colorado’s unique conditions. Or, if you have your own engineer, we’re happy to collaborate with them to ensure your repair is top-notch. We’re here to work with you and your team to get the job done right.

Local Expertise

Unfortunately, it’s common in our industry for competitors to use internally employed engineers. But even worse, we’ve noticed a trend among national companies to use remote engineers from different areas of the country. Anyone who reviews your project based on notes, pictures, and quotes without actually visiting your home can easily misdiagnose your problems and solutions. Additionally, remote structural engineers aren’t subject matter experts in Colorado’s unique building codes, weather, and soil conditions.  We proudly only work with Colorado local engineers.

Unbiased Solutions

Independent engineers offer honest, unbiased assessments. Because they aren’t connected to the company doing the repairs, they don’t have any hidden agendas or reasons to push certain repair methods or suggest unnecessary work. Their only goal is to make sure your foundation is evaluated and repaired properly, meeting all the necessary standards. At Liftech, we believe in putting the homeowner first, which is why we insist on using independent engineers to eliminate any potential bias. Your home deserves the best, and that’s what we’re here to provide.
