Testing & Investigative Services

When a system fails, you want to know why. We can research the failure to tell you what happened. Whether the failure was due to weather events, structural deficiencies, or other performance related issues, we have the understanding and experience to evaluate failed systems and identify the cause.

Our goal is to get your building, tenants, and systems up and running again as quickly, safely, and smoothly as possible. Our team of professionals will perform an in-depth root cause analysis, provide you technical recommendations, and ensure you're back to normal.

Raymond's trained team can deploy the right solution to determine the issue rapidly, with a focus on the most straight-forward, cost-effective, and long-term solution for you.

Drone Surveys

Raymond’s drone fleet uses DJI’s Phantom 4 Pro and Inspire drone models. Both models are licensed to fly up to 400 feet above a facility site, with the ability to take full HD 1080p images and Infrared (IR) thermography. Each drone offers the potential for interchangeability between the different types of camera, as well as allowing for other sensors to be loaded onto the platform.
