Every inspection begins with understanding why you’ve reached out to us. Was there an accident, visible damage, or a sudden change in performance? Perhaps a jurisdiction or insurance provider has raised concerns. Whatever the reason, our first priority is to listen, gather details, and fully grasp the circumstances that led you to seek assistance.

Next, we dive deeper into your objectives. What does success look like for you? Are you seeking to restore safety, ensure compliance, or prepare for future upgrades? We’ll also discuss timelines, budgetary constraints, and any other factors that shape your expectations. This collaborative step ensures we’re aligned with your vision from the start.

Based on the information gathered in the first two steps, we’ll provide an estimate for the inspection process. This estimate will outline the scope of work required to assess your bridge thoroughly, offering transparency on costs and timelines before any further commitments are made.

Our team then performs a meticulous bridge inspection, identifying structural deficiencies, safety risks, and areas requiring immediate or future attention. Following the inspection, you’ll receive a detailed report with prioritized recommendations and a clear path forward for repairs or upgrades.

The inspection process represents just the first phase. Actual repairs form the second phase, which we approach with the same flexibility and client-centered philosophy as outlined on our previous page. While Paragon specializes in engineering services, we may also offer repair and fabrication work if the project aligns with our capabilities and interests. Alternatively, you’re welcome to engage your own contractors, with our support as needed to ensure work adheres to the highest standards.
