Testimonials
Knowledgeable and experienced team of professional engineers that we have been using now for several years because they understand the building process from design through construction and project closeout. Can't say enough.
One of the most complete Private Providers and Reviewers from town. They not only help during all City of Miami related permitting processes but also inspect, review and get things done.
Excellent firm with great people and a wide array of private provider review and inspection services.
Ortus provides a great service and is one of the most responsive private providers that I have worked with. Their relationships with the City of Miami really helped get my project to the finish line.
Always available, professional and responsive. A pleasure to work with.
Unlike the bureaucracy of Gov't agencies that can bog down the plan review, permitting & inspection process, private providers (3rd party inspectors) can be a developer's (and contractor's) ally. I am using Ortus Engineering currently on Miami Beach and look forward to this job completing so we can move onto the next one!
Ortus Engineering is a private provider firm that reviews drawings and provides inspections on behalf of the AHJ. When the city is backed up, which seems like it is always the case, Ortus is an excellent alternate method to expedite drawing reviews, schedule inspections, and speed-up construction as a whole. The employees at Ortus are very helpful, and they go out of their way to help a project even if the task is outside of their scope. I would definitely work with Ortus again in the future and highly recommend to others.
