Elevator consultants for Philadelphia, Washington DC and the Mid-Atlantic
One region, several jurisdictions, and a different contractor at every address. We give office, multifamily and retail owners in Philadelphia, Washington DC, Baltimore, Wilmington, Northern Virginia and Pittsburgh one independent standard for contracts, inspections and modernization.
Who we work for in the Mid-Atlantic
Our client is the owner, the board or the property manager who signs the contract, never the elevator company.
Commercial office property
Owners and asset managers of office buildings in Center City, downtown Washington, Baltimore and the Northern Virginia corridors, where elevator downtime reaches tenants first.
Multifamily and condominium
Apartment owners, condominium associations and co-ops with aging equipment, long-running maintenance agreements and modernization proposals to check.
Retail centers and portfolios
Malls, retail centers and mixed-use property where escalators carry the traffic, run by managers juggling a different code and a different contractor in every jurisdiction.
Where Mid-Atlantic engagements begin
All nine services are available in the Mid-Atlantic. These are the four owners here ask for first.
Contract Analysis
Know what your contract obligates the contractor to do, before you sign, at renewal, or when a dispute arises.
Equipment Analysis
Know your equipment’s real condition and remaining life, before you plan a dollar of capital.
Project Oversight
From award to closeout, we watch the job site so your board doesn’t have to.
Inspections and Witnessing
Certified inspectors representing the building’s interest at every test, not the contractor’s.
Several jurisdictions, one standard
Requirements differ across the region: the City of Philadelphia, the District of Columbia and the states of Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware and Virginia each set their own inspection and certificate rules. We work to the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction for each building, and hold all required licensing wherever we provide services.

Questions Mid-Atlantic owners ask
Anything else, call 954.281.8484.
Do you work in both Philadelphia and Washington DC?
Yes. We work across the Mid-Atlantic, including Philadelphia, Washington DC, Baltimore, Wilmington, Northern Virginia and Pittsburgh, and in every other state through our national network.
Our buildings are in more than one jurisdiction. Can you handle that?
Yes. We work to the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction for each building, and bring the whole portfolio to one standard for specifications, audits and reporting.
Can you witness our periodic and acceptance inspections?
Yes. A certified elevator inspector attends on the owner’s behalf, confirms that required tests were performed and passed, and documents any deficiencies.
We have a modernization proposal. Can you review it before we sign?
Yes. We review scope, pricing, schedule and contract terms against what the equipment actually needs, and can write the specification and run a competitive bid if that serves you better.
