What We Do

Nine service lines.
One signature.

Testing, inspection, drilling, aerial capture and engineering support — delivered by one accredited firm, so the sample, the reading and the recommendation never change hands between vendors.

The Range

The advantage is not the length of the list. It is that one firm is accountable for all of it.

Most projects need more than one discipline. When testing, inspection, drilling and engineering sit inside separate companies, the gaps between them become the owner's problem — schedule lost waiting on a subconsultant, findings that contradict each other, and no one willing to sign.

Universal runs all nine service lines in house across New York and South Florida, under one quality program and one set of accreditations. The technician in the field and the engineer who reviews the report work for the same firm.

One Firm. Full Scope.

02
