The Bottleneck

Structural work shouldn’t hold up approvals

Permits stall when drawings arrive late, phone calls go unanswered, and no one owns the next step. United Structural keeps every stakeholder in sync with documented processes and formal communication points.

  • Permitting often stalls because drawings arrive incomplete or late.
  • Clients can’t get a straight answer on status when phones and inboxes go quiet.
  • Manual spreadsheets make it impossible to track approvals, invoices, and accountability.

Our Response

Precision engineering with documented process

From intake through approval, every milestone is recorded, reviewed, and communicated by the engineering team responsible for your project.

  • Inquiry submitted with site details, photos, and deadlines.
  • Lead engineer assigned in under 24 hours with kickoff call scheduled.
  • Field review + calculations completed and logged with markups.
  • Stamped drawing set issued alongside permitting summary.
