Structural Inspections & Engineering Reports in Los Angeles County

Whether you’re buying a property, planning a remodel, or addressing visible damage, a structural inspection is your first line of defense.

At 911 Construction & Electric Inc., we provide detailed structural inspections and engineering reports across Los Angeles County — helping homeowners understand their building’s integrity, safety, and code compliance.

Our licensed inspectors and engineers evaluate every structural component, from foundations and framing to roof systems and load-bearing walls.

Comprehensive Structural Evaluation Services

Our inspection process covers all critical aspects of your home’s structure to identify weaknesses and ensure long-term stability.

We inspect:

  • Foundations, slabs, and crawlspaces

  • Load-bearing walls, beams, and framing

  • Roof trusses, rafters, and connections

  • Seismic anchoring and shear walls

  • Signs of settlement, sagging, or water damage

  • Electrical, plumbing, and HVAC structural penetrations

Every inspection follows California Building Code (CBC) and Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety (LADBS) standards.

Engineering Reports & Recommendations

Following inspection, we provide a comprehensive engineering report outlining:

  • Identified structural deficiencies

  • Recommended repairs or retrofits

  • Code compliance status

  • Cost and scope estimates

  • Photos and diagrams for clarity

These reports are often required for real estate transactions, insurance claims, remodel permits, or seismic retrofit design approvals.

Why Structural Inspections Matter

Los Angeles County’s older housing stock and seismic risks make periodic inspections critical.

A detailed report ensures your home:

  • Meets current building and safety codes

  • Qualifies for remodel or addition permits

  • Avoids costly foundation or framing failures

  • Is structurally sound after earthquakes or water damage

Regular evaluations prevent small issues from becoming major structural hazards.
