HGS Engineering

What types of inspections does HGS Engineering provide?

Types of Inspections:

-Foundation Inspections: For homeowners or prospective buyers to find out if their homes need foundation repair. A full report is provided with any recommendations, floor elevations, and useful foundation maintenance tips.

-Manufactured Home Certifications: This is required when buying a mobile home under most circumstances to verify that the foundation meets HUD 7584, Permanent Foundations Guide for Manufactured Housing.

-Appraiser Requirements: So, you're about to close and the appraiser comes back with requiring an engineer.... We get out to homes quickly and can work with everyone to get exactly what's needed to close!

As a North Texas native, I know how bad our soil is for home foundations. I began working in foundation repair for a family business as early as 10 years old and continued to do so for a decade, getting important hands-on experience that many engineers will never get. I received my degree in Civil Engineering from the University of Texas at Arlington, and I also acquired my home inspection license while going to school. Performing home inspections for four years was a great introduction into the real estate market and learning what is needed by clients and realtors. I went on to work in the design and construction of highways and bridges. Once I attained my PE license, I started my own firm with a passion to provide better and more honest engineering services than I had seen available to homeowners and prospective buyers.
Helping you or your clients to make informed decisions with their biggest investment!
