Please email us directly at inspections@avalonstructural.com or call our office at (831) 479-4389 and we will respond shortly. Please include as much information as you can including which type of inspection you wish us to perform: (1) Full Foundation Inspection - Starting at $700 Our full foundation inspection includes an inspection of the crawl space, a check for settlement and a study of the home's drainage. The price is increased based on a variety of factors including age of home, size of home, distance from our office, and other factors. Very large older homes at a large distance from our office have cost as much as $2000. You will be provided with a comprehensive report and an itemized proposal to perform the repairs. (2) Limited Foundation Inspection - Starting at $650 to $325 Depending on Issues The limited inspection is anything less than a full inspection. The limits of the inspection will be specified before we visit the site (for example an inspection of a specific issue like horizontal cracking). If the issues with the structure are severe, complex, or the structure is built before 1953 (often without rebar), we will not perform a limtied inspection and will only perform a full foundation inspection to get a complete picture of the issues. The price is increased based on a variety of factors including age of home, size of home, distance from our office, and other factors. You will still be provided with a summary of our findings and an itemized proposal to perform the repairs. (3) Competitive Bid - No Charge Under Conditions Below If you send us a competitor's proposal with a scope of work that is detailed, complete and apporpriate, then we can provide a free competitive bid based upon that. However, if the competitor's proposal is based on a scope of work that is vague, incomplete, or otherwise defective on its face, a free bid cannot be provided because we will not provide a proposal based on a defective scope of work. Important: You must share with us all relevant documents including the scope of work provided by the competitor. Use your discretion in blanking out price numbers. Please send the bid with any supportive documents, and we will let you know if the bid qualifies for a free competitive bid. (4) Engineered Plans - No Charge If you send our office completed, stamped engineered plans we can provide a free proposal. Important: You must share with us all relevant documents. This will allow us to provide an accurate proposal.
