Construction Inspection

Since 1991, Keville Enterprises (KEI) has been serving owners and clients both large and small. KEI combines a wealth of experience to bring you professional inspection services that are tailored specifically to you and the needs of the project.

KEI’s full staff of 100+ construction professionals, including more than 50 resident engineers/inspectors, stands ready to provide whatever level of support is needed. Our Resident Engineers/Inspectors have an average of over 20 years of experience in the industry. Many of them possess multiple certifications and have experience in overseeing and inspecting multiple disciplines including: structural; welding; electrical - both high voltage & low voltage; traction power; signals; coatings; civil/site; earthwork; sewer/drainage; utilities; mechanical; geotechnical including slurry walls, soil mixing, drilled shafts, jet grouting; building construction and renovation; and many other disciplines. Since many of KEI’s Inspectors are multi-disciplined, one of our Inspectors can frequently service more than a single contract, even when different types of inspections are required, thereby providing efficiencies in cost and time.

KEI’s Construction Inspectors will perform inspections based on a proactive, structured, systematic three-phase inspection program, which will include Preparatory Inspections, Initial Inspections, and Follow-up Inspections.

Each Construction Inspector on site will prepare a Daily Progress Report for the work that he/she inspects each day; check that all designated DBE subcontractors actually perform the work required by the contract; take periodic progress photos and other special condition photos as dictated by the work to document actual field conditions and activities; provide weekly verification that the General Contractor is maintaining a current set of As-Built Record Drawings; review the General Contractors’ pay requisitions for accuracy and verify actual work completed; and ensure that all Daily Reports, test results, and all other reports, records, and documentation are maintained in a complete and orderly manner. Our Construction Inspectors will develop solid professional working relationships with the contractors’ personnel, working cooperatively as members of the project delivery team. They will also be constantly looking ahead to identify and mitigate potential problems which could adversely affect project costs and project schedules before they arise.

Specialty Inspections
In addition to our general Construction Inspectors, KEI offers the added advantage of having a variety of specialty inspectors on staff to support any specialty needs. Our Specialty Inspectors include AWS Certified Welding Inspectors, NACE Certified Coatings Inspectors, High Strength Bolting Inspectors, Power Distribution/Cabling Inspectors, Signals/Communications Inspectors, and Licensed Electrical Inspectors. Our specialty inspectors will follow the same structured, systematic three phase inspection approach as our general Construction Inspectors, while responding to more specialized needs.
