City Review & Filing Fees.

Separate from our engineering cost, each municipality charges its own recertification review and filing fee, paid directly to that city's building department. The amount is set by each city's own ordinance and differs by jurisdiction — City of Miami, Miami Beach, Hialeah, Doral, Homestead, and Coral Gables each set and bill their own review fee. We confirm the applicable city fee with you up front when we quote your scope.

Report submission. We prepare and seal your inspection reports, but we do not file or submit them to the building department or any government agency. Submission is the responsibility of the property owner or a designated representative, and the applicable city or county may charge a separate review or filing fee.

How Our Unbundled Pricing Works.

Flexibility — need only the structural or only the electrical inspection? Pay only for that inspection.
Transparency — clear per-inspection pricing, no hidden engineering fees; each city's review fee is disclosed in advance.
One engineer of record — when you need the full scope, structural, electrical, and infrared thermography are sealed under one P.E. and submitted as a single package.
Local expertise — a Florida P.E. and Level III Certified Infrared Thermographer specializing in South Florida recertification and BORA compliance.

Recertification Pricing.

Recertification is priced per inspection. A single required inspection — structural or electrical — starts at $1,300; infrared thermography is $960; and parking-lot illumination is $600 when the building has parking. A complete recertification with all required inspections starts at $4,160. Most owners who receive a notice need the full structural and electrical scope; buildings with 400A+ electrical service must include the thermography component. For the program's requirements, deadlines, and process, see our 40 year recertification overview.

Infrared Thermography & Electrical Services.

A standalone infrared thermography inspection starts at $960, performed by a Level III Certified Infrared Thermographer (CIT® #19397) with a NIST-calibrated FLIR E-96. We also provide electrical safety inspections, arc flash / electrical engineering studies, NFPA 70B maintenance programs, and bonding & ground-resistance testing — these vary by facility and are quoted on request.

Other Compliance Services.

We also handle structural inspections — which also satisfy the Phase I milestone (Florida Statute 553.899) — and photometric / parking-lot illumination plans throughout Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach.

What Affects Your Price.

Building size and unit count — more square footage and more electrical panels take longer to inspect and document.
Threshold vs. non-threshold — buildings over three stories or 50 feet require a licensed structural engineer for the structural portion, which we coordinate.
Electrical service size — 400A+ services require the infrared thermography component.
Building condition — extensive deterioration requiring additional documentation adds time.
Number of buildings — multiple buildings on one folio can sometimes be combined into a single report.

Pricing FAQ.

How much does a 40-year recertification cost?

Pricing is per inspection. A single required inspection — structural or electrical — starts at $1,300. Infrared thermography is $960, and parking-lot illumination (a separate night photometric survey, only when the building has parking) starts at $600. A complete recertification with all required inspections starts at $4,160. Larger or threshold buildings cost more.

Are there hidden fees?

No hidden engineering fees. Separately, each city charges its own recertification review and filing fee, set by that municipality's ordinance and paid to the building department. We disclose the applicable city fee up front.

Can I order a single inspection instead of the package?

Yes. Our pricing is fully unbundled and charged per inspection. Order only the structural ($1,300), only the electrical ($1,300), or only the infrared thermography ($960) if that is all your building needs.
