States will typically provide notice when inspections are due. Contact Kencor, Inc. to arrange for your inspection, and we will provide you with and estimate and information about the upcoming inspection. Inspections will be accompanied by a third-party, state-approved inspector in order to maintain the results which are given directly after the inspection takes place. Then, building owners are given 30-60 days to have necessary repairs completed. Kencor, Inc. can also provide timely estimates and repairs.
