Forensic engineering services.

Independent evaluations of the cause and extent of property damage, grounded in field observations, available records and engineering judgment.

01

Hail & Wind Damage Evaluations

Evaluate roof coverings, collateral indicators and available weather records to distinguish storm effects from deterioration and other conditions.

02

Foundation & Structural Movement

Assess cracking, relative floor elevations, drainage and supporting soils to understand movement and its potential causes.

03

Crawlspace & Moisture Conditions

Investigate deterioration, condensation and moisture sources affecting crawlspaces and structural wood members.

04

Tree Impact & Structural Damage

Evaluate the extent of impact-related damage to framing and other structural components, including accessible load paths.

05

Water Intrusion & Building Envelope

Examine roofing, wall assemblies and transitions to evaluate water entry and associated building conditions.

06

Residential & Commercial Evaluations

Provide property-specific engineering evaluations for homes, commercial buildings and manufactured homes.

A deliberate approach

Evidence first. Answers follow.

A clear path from the initial question to findings you can understand and use.

01

Understand the assignment.

Clarify the scope, reported history and questions the evaluation needs to address.

02

Document the conditions.

Record accessible conditions through careful field observations and measurements.

03

Analyze the evidence.

Consider physical evidence and relevant records using engineering judgment.

04

Communicate the findings.

Provide written findings and repair recommendations when included in the scope.

Owner · Mississippi Professional Engineer

Grover Engineering, LLC is a Mississippi forensic and structural engineering practice led by Jason Grover, P.E.

The work begins with careful field documentation and a thoughtful look at the available evidence. Impartial analysis and engineering judgment guide each evaluation—not assumptions based on appearances alone.

The goal is straightforward: clear written reporting that explains the observed conditions, the engineering analysis and the findings relevant to your assignment.

What we investigate

Look closer. Understand more.

Representative conditions documented during field evaluations.

Foundation & Structural Movement

Previously repaired cracking in brick veneer.

Floor Framing

Cracked and deflected floor joist with moisture-related deterioration.

Crawlspace Moisture

Staining and suspected fungal growth on floor components.

Roof Covering Conditions

Granule loss and exposed shingle reinforcement.

Water Intrusion

Interior ceiling staining associated with roof leakage.

Structural Framing

Roof framing evaluated for support and deflection.
