Building Consulting Services

Construction & Hard Restoration Estimates

Our consultants perform detailed scope and cost evaluations for large or complex losses. Cost estimates can vary dramatically when scope, code requirements, or pricing assumptions are unclear. Provencher & Company supplies reliable independent expertise to establish an accurate loss value and prevent inflated costs.

Business Interruption & Period of Restoration Analysis

We evaluate repair timelines to document the Period of Restoration and its impact on Business Interruption exposure. Our written analysis of Extra Expense alternatives allows clients to select the most economical repair strategy while maintaining operations.

Construction Defect Investigations

Construction defects may arise from design, material, or workmanship deficiencies, or from improper maintenance and operation. Our investigations draw on deep knowledge of building materials, construction processes, and industry standards to isolate causation and quantify damages.

Mitigation Review & Oversight

Water & Emergency Mitigation Oversight

Major water events demand immediate action to safeguard property and revenue streams. Commercial mitigation projects often exceed hundreds of thousands of dollars. Provencher & Company deploys experienced representatives on‑site to validate drying strategies, negotiate effective processes, and dispute unnecessary charges, delivering substantial cost savings.

Clerk-of-the-Works Support

For ongoing large‑scale mitigation projects, we provide Clerk‑of‑the‑Works services to log labor, materials, and equipment usage in real time, ensuring transparency and accountability.

Mitigation Invoice Audit & Subrogation Defense

Our credentialed mitigation specialists, each with hands‑on contractor experience, audit invoices to identify excess labor, equipment, or supply charges and flag inaccuracies in drying protocols. We also prepare defensible documentation to protect carriers during subrogation or litigation.
