I'd definitely not recommend this individual…read more He was hired to provide an architectural inspection report for a new home. I basically did all the work. Now me not being an engineer I wasn't exactly sure what he needed to see. I had a folder of many pictures. I shared with him via Google drive. Now if you're an expert and the photo is not something that's considered archducal, no need to analyze it. Just flip past it. The "many phone calls" from June 17 through September 11. I calculated both incoming & Outgoing to 62 min. 1 hr and 2 min. I back up my phone logs. I kept the calls short and infrequent as he bills for every millisecond. A few times i had to real him back to task because he was going on about his passion and his work up north. When on premises & on the phone. As I reiterated his own word back to him "He's expensive and time is money!" As I respect this fact to a degree. It's the nickel & dime aspect I find off putting. I requested all the permits from the country and provided them to Mark, he didn't even see the seal/signature. I had to point it out to him. Mark came out with his little point and shoot cam. Took a few shots, poked his head up through the attic access took maybe 2 or 3 shots. I requested the plans/ specs from the builder and requested them to cut a hole in the ceiling, I videoed a 1 min clip of the area with 4k video & provide it for review. After all was said and done I waited for a written report that never came. Part of the logged calls I mentioned earlier was me trying to obtain a report as a vague verbal is absolutely useless. At the end of the day I paid this individual a large sum and got useless information. The minute I expressed my discontent with the situation, as I was extremely upset. His reply was "I don't like your attitude and I'm not inclined to help you." He got paid & I recieved nothing but fluff.

Jeremiah was the product engineer and was professional while also being kind and explaining what they were doing. The covered areas I never thought about.

I would recommend them to anyone needing their services.

Let me start by saying all I did was call this business to ask about them leveling a house I am…read morerenovating. Once the phone was answered I was greeted with the name of the business but not the name of the person I was speaking with. I asked and they responded with the name of the business again and then said you called us, who are you? I was taken aback but responded with "I'm a potential customer, and my name." Still no name as to who I was speaking to. As I was making the call for the gentleman I am doing the work and their is a language barrier as the homeowner doesn't speak good English I was told their would be a 400 fee just to apply online for someone to come look at the house. If I was the homeowner on the other hand it would have been free. I explained this and he said that's how it is. I am retired disabled Veteran and this man was just plain rude to me. He needs some customer service intervention skills and should not be answering phones.

They have the absolute worst customer service. When I hired them they told me the project would…read moretake a total of 10 business days. The project actually took approximately 2 months. Workers would come and go as they pleased, and there would be some weeks where workers did not show up at all. I would have to call and complain before work would start again. No one called and provided me an update as to what was going on with the project and whenever I called the office the receptionist would indicate someone would call me back later that day. No one ever called me back, not once. I probably called upwards of 6 times with questions to no response. Moreover, I had the contractor come out to give me an estimate for another project. He came out weeks after my request and after meeting never sent me the estimate. They are also insanely expensive. I will never use this company again. The only positive thing I can say is that the work was done correctly.

Here's the deal. I was buying a house with a crawl space. In addition to my general home…read moreinspection, my realtor recommended I get a structural inspection since the house was built in the 30's. Just to be proactive and double check. For only $100, they'll give you a report and piece of mind. NOT. They came out on a Monday to do the inspection. My "inspection period" on my contract ran out on Thursday...I was assured by the inspector that I would have a report by Thursday and at least a phone call from the engineer by Wednesday evening with at least some general info (i.e. the house is falling down don't buy it) After at least 6 phone calls and conversations with Linda (receptionist), and an angry e-mail to the company, I finally received the report Friday at 4:45pm. Their customer service was AWFUL the entire time. Even after 3 phone calls, I was STILL explaining my situation to Linda (did she really not remember??), and the engineer Scott, basically called me a liar several times. At one point, they actually stopped answering my calls. On top of that, the report indicated $20,000 worth of damage and repair. Cue: panic....especially considering it was now the weekend. That following Monday, my dad and I both put phone calls into Wisdom for more information on the report, and no phone calls were ever returned. I hired another structural company (Dansco) to come out and do another inspection on Tuesday. (it was more expensive...but totally worth it)...and their report was starkly different. Only about $5,000 of repair. Kind of convenient that Wisdom actually does the work and Dansco only does inspections. Clearly this is a case of Wisdom trying to scare me into unnecessary repairs for their own benefit. Pay the extra money for Dansco to do your structural inspection.

Anthony Miceli of Beryl Project Engineering did a full home and wind mitigation inspection report…read moreon a house for me in the Tampa Bay, FL area on Sept 1, 2016. He was there for about 3 hours and checked everything from the roof, attic, wiring, plumbing, furnace, AC unit, insulation, outlets, walls, doors, windows, and everything else from top to bottom of the house. After he completed the inspection he gave me a full detailed report with photos of any area that may need to be addressed as far as repairs. Every house, even newly built, will have a few minor issues, which are inconsequential, as it's the major items that you need to worry about. For example, replacing a $2 wall outlet is easier and less cost than replacing a leaking defective roof, haha. Anthony also did a full wind mitigation inspection and report on the property too. The home inspection was about 40 pages long and the wind report was 12 pages long. They are very detailed in their reports and let you know exactly what the issue is, and how serious it is as they find them. Documenting them in detailed notes and photographs both. Many of these minor items may have been this way for years and the current owners did now even notice them, as they may not have affected anything great enough to be noticed. But a qualified home inspector will find these and point them out. They even point out things as simple as needing a smoke detector in a bedroom. Anthony did an excellent job on his inspection report, was very thorough, and professional.He was able to do the inspection in a timely manner from the day I called Beryl to get it set up, and he had the report emailed to me within 24 hours of completing the inspection. I am very happy with the job they provided. They also have a monthly email list you can be added to if you wish, where they give you home tips on how to keep your house in top shape and the most energy efficient.

Beryl Engineering My…read moreexperience with Beryl Engineering involved two inspections of the same sliding-glass-door installation at my home. Beryl's April 2025 report documented significant concerns, including excessive caulking, improper flashing, drainage issues, moisture-related conditions, and a recommendation that the sliding glass door be removed and properly reinstalled. In January 2026, Beryl issued a follow-up report stating that the door had been fully replaced, that prior installation deficiencies were no longer observed, and that no active moisture intrusion or elevated readings were present. I dispute the factual basis for the statement that a completely new door assembly had been installed. I have requested documentation showing what Beryl relied on to verify replacement, including work orders, delivery records, product identification, serial numbers, contractor records, field notes, measurements, photographs, and testing documentation. My concern is not simply that the later opinion differed from the earlier one. It is that the substantial change in conclusions was not clearly reconciled with the earlier findings or supported by documentation I have been provided. For anyone retaining an engineering firm for a construction-defect or water-intrusion issue, I would recommend obtaining the complete inspection file, testing methodology, photographs, measurements, assumptions, and factual basis for all material conclusions.
