Foundation Damage Case Study

Foundation health is vital to the health of the rest of a structure, so when a policyholder filed a claim for foundation footing damage, the adjuster needed an assessment quickly. A Donan licensed forensic engineer performed an onsite inspection and provided a report with the cause of loss within six business days of receiving the assignment.
