Not sure when to involve an engineer?
Recurring leaks, visible concrete distress, major repairs, and compliance overlap are all signs early guidance may help.
Which one would concern your Board most?

Concrete spalling often signals deeper deterioration, which is why proper repair scopes matter.

If you see us with golf clubs, we're not thinking about birdies. We're thinking about building safety.
These clubs are acoustical sounding devices used to detect hidden concrete damage.
A simple tap can reveal corrosion beneath the surface.
