Testimonials

He is an excellent construction advisor who was very helpful to me in a recent successful remediation of a university student housing deal. My company has used him numerous times when faced with facility, construction and capital expenditure issues in projects financed by our insured bonds. In my student housing workout Steve came in to assess and make recommendations about structural problems with sagging floors and weakened braces in a number of buildings which needed to be fixed for student safety and in order to reopen rooms, improve cash flow and to bring the buildings into compliance for sale to an investing group. Steve has a wide range of contacts in the industry and in combination with his attention to detail and cost was able to put together an extremely cost-effective solution. After assessing the damaged buildings, he discussed them with an engineer who drew up plans to correct the structural flaws, discussed solutions with the housing project’s management company, developed an RFP for local contractors; personally interviewed, negotiated contracts and managed local contractors to undertake the work (at a fraction of estimates provided by large national construction and management companies) and was extremely responsive to my company’s concerns. His services are reasonably priced and he was a pleasure to work with.

We had a long running problem with cracks forming in the ceiling of our house. After others tried and failed to fix the problem, Steve Scoville quickly showed us exactly what was causing the problem in our house and explained exactly what needed to be done to fix it. Because he took the time to explain the engineering behind the problem, I felt like we understood exactly what was happening and why it was happening. Mr. Scoville also provided us with a comprehensive budget and then stuck to it. Even though the project took several days, he was always very careful to minimize disruption to our family and clean up after himself. Best of all, his fix worked. We are very pleased with his work and are sure he would be successful in whatever work he undertakes.

I hired Mr. Scoville as an expert witness for an ongoing litigation case involving damage to my property caused by a developer in Circuit Court for Davidson County. Mr. Scoville has been an excellent consultant on the matter, with his years of experience in the field proving to be invaluable to my case. He is prompt, professional and extremely thorough. I would highly recommend Mr. Scoville as an expert witness in any case involving construction projects.
