Phillips Seabrook provides full-service building department solutions to private businesses, including owners, builders, architects and developers. We can assist you with preliminary code analysis to help you avoid costly delays—whether you’re designing or remodeling one residence, or building an entire commercial or residential development or a complex commercial or institutional project. We can also cut weeks or months from the plan review process with our third-party plan review services. Our knowledge of building codes and requirements is extensive and thorough, providing the highest standards of professional services.
Code consultation
Phillips Seabrook provides building code consulting services for large and complex projects, including public safety facilities; courts and detention facilities; wineries; airport terminals and hangers; schools; hotels and convention centers. We also provide code consultation for single and multi-family residences as well as residential developments
Preliminary code analysis and consultation services are vital during the schematic and design development phases and provide significant advantages as the construction documents progress. Design professionals have observed that this process gives them greater scheduling control; accelerates the building permit plan review timeline; helps to contain increases in construction costs due to last minute code consultation issues, and avoids costly mistakes resulting in major revisions to construction documents.
Expedited Plan Review and Quality Control
Phillips Seabrook offers third party plan review for architects, developers and other who want to speed up approval of construction documents. Accelerated plan review is applicable to any size or type of project, whether it’s commercial, institutional, multi-family or single-family. The expedited plan review process allows you to cut weeks to months from a building project’s approval timeline. It can also help hold construction costs down by avoiding change orders. Phillips Seabrook also provides quality control services to builders and developers. In this role, we are frequently on board during the preliminary schematic design phase in order to review the early construction documents. When required, Phillips Seabrook also reviews plans privately before a public application for a building permit is made.
