Our Services: A Comprehensive Approach

At Leavitt Associates, we understand that building projects are complex and require a deep understanding of various factors. Our services are designed to address the full range of issues that can arise during the building process. From field investigation and remediation to condition assessment and mediation, we offer a comprehensive suite of services to help you overcome any obstacles.

Field Investigation & Remediation: Identifying and Solving the Problem

When you have a leak or other problems, how do you find the real cause and the best fix? Our team makes "house calls" to identify the root cause of the issue and recommend the most effective solution. Our field investigation services include on-site inspection, testing, and analysis to pinpoint the problem. Our remediation services ensure that the issue is resolved effectively, with minimal disruption to your operations.

Condition Assessment: Understanding the Current State of Your Building

If you own, are planning to buy, or are planning to renovate a historic building, you need accurate information about the existing condition of the building. Our condition assessment services provide you with a comprehensive understanding of your building's condition, including any potential issues or needed repairs.

Mediation: Resolving Disputes Efficiently

If you find yourself in a dispute involving leakage or alleged design or construction defects, you may benefit from our mediation services. Our experienced professionals can help resolve disputes quickly and efficiently, saving you time and money.

Design Consulting: Proactive Solutions for a Better Building

We meet with owners, facilities managers, construction managers, architects, and other parties to the building process to identify and address problems in advance. Our design consulting services help you avoid potential issues by providing expert advice and guidance during the design phase.

Architectural Construction Documents: Comprehensive Documentation for Your Project

We prepare construction document packages in association with other design professionals, or as the principal architect. Our architectural construction documents are designed to ensure that your project is completed on time, within budget, and to the required specifications.

Case Studies and White Papers: Sharing Our Expertise

We believe in sharing our knowledge and experience with others. Our case studies and white papers provide insights into common building issues and how they can be resolved. These resources are available to help you make informed decisions about your building projects.

Seminars: Learning from Our Experts
