Fire loss interior

Overview

Building consulting services support the investigation and resolution of property and casualty claims involving residential and commercial structures. A building consultant on an insurance claim evaluates the condition, scope, and cause of damage to a structure, and reviews repair methodology and cost, work that sits at the intersection of construction knowledge and claims experience.

Timothy Wieneke's building consulting authority draws on hands-on construction field experience beginning in the early 1990s, licensed general contractor status in North Carolina and as a Florida Certified Residential Contractor, and more than 20 years of property damage estimating and insurance claims work, plus over 10 additional years of construction field experience. Engagements draw on a wide range of loss types, building systems, and construction methods.

Work performed includes forensic investigations for both property and casualty claims and surety matters, scope and condition analysis, causation assessment, and documentation of findings in written reports suitable for claims handling, litigation, or appraisal.
