When it comes to building inspections, experience and expertise matter.

At Criterium Rand Engineers, every project is performed and/or reviewed by a licensed Professional Engineer (P.E.), a credential earned through years of education, hands-on experience, rigorous testing, and ongoing professional development.

Our engineers do more than inspect buildings. They help clients understand what they’re seeing, identify potential issues, and provide clear, practical guidance you can trust.

Because every building has a story and the people inside are always our top priority.

This week felt like summer finally arrived in Maine ☀️ From sunny afternoons by the water to the first signs of camp season coming back to life, it’s hard not to get excited for the months ahead.

At Criterium Rand Engineers, we’re lucky to spend time in some of Maine’s most beautiful places — along lakeshores, at seasonal camps, and on properties where generations of families come together every summer. We see firsthand how important these spaces are for making memories, relaxing, and enjoying everything Maine has to offer.

As camps reopen and waterfront properties get ready for another season, it’s the perfect time to make sure everything is safe, sound, and ready for summer ahead.

Thinking about seasonal maintenance or a property inspection before summer is in full swing? Reach out to our team. We’re here to help you enjoy the season with confidence.

Cracks in your walls or foundation are easy to brush off at first.

But when those cracks start appearing—or getting bigger—it could be your home’s way of telling you something has changed.

At Criterium-Rand Engineers, we help homeowners take the guesswork out of structural concerns with professional evaluations and clear, unbiased answers you can trust.

Because “keeping an eye on it” shouldn’t be your only plan.

If you’ve noticed cracks, uneven floors, sticking doors, or other signs something may be shifting, now is the time to get peace of mind. Contact Criterium-Rand Engineers to schedule an evaluation and learn what your home is really telling you.

As the seasons change and your home transitions from heating to cooling, spring is the perfect time to make sure your HVAC and ventilation systems are running efficiently and keeping your indoor air clean and comfortable.

✅ Replace HVAC air filters to improve airflow and system efficiency
✅ Clean supply and return vents to reduce dust buildup and improve indoor air quality
✅ Schedule a professional HVAC tune-up before peak cooling season begins
✅ Test bathroom and kitchen exhaust fans to ensure proper ventilation and moisture control
✅ Check for unusual noises, weak airflow, or inconsistent temperatures that may signal maintenance needs

A properly maintained HVAC system can help lower energy costs, extend equipment life, and create a healthier indoor environment for you and your family.

Spring Tip #3 🌸

Before you start enjoying those warmer days outdoors, take a closer look at your deck and exterior structures. Winter can take a toll leaving behind hidden rot, rust, or loose railings that could turn into safety hazards fast.

A quick inspection now can save you from costly repairs (and accidents) later.

Not sure what to look for? That’s where we come in. ✔️
Schedule a professional inspection with Criterium Rand Engineers today and head into the season with confidence.
