ANOTHER out of town PHOTO / VIDEO Documentation project goes into the history books.  We have the privilege of handling many of these projects for our construction clients, protecting them with PRE-Construction (and perhaps Post-Construction, too) photography or video records.  Often called for in the project specifications by the engineer, and often utilized by the contractor for their own protection … P-Tn professional record helps protect everyone from misunderstandings or disputes, saving ...

How do you show your skills to prospective customers?  Do you show your crew at work?  How do you share what you do, and how you do it, with the people you would like to be doing business with.  P-Tn video ‘shorts’ are a great way to do so.  These are not big productions, and they are not costly to create.  Just think in terms of what you do most or do best … or what your present customers might not realize you offer.  A P-Tn video ‘short’ can be shared on your social media platforms, or posted ...

As I’m writing this feature about a recent contract in Osage City, Kansas, our field crew is on the road to Joplin, Missouri to handle PRE-Construction PHOTO or VIDEO documentation on a group of three separate projects in or near that city.  Our photographer in the video on our e-NEWS plus+ BLOG is capturing video footage of pre-existing cracks in the asphalt pavement adjacent to one of the many manholes that will be accessed for this CIPP liner project to upgrade sanitary sewer infrastructure ...
