Welcome to the JCH Consulting Home Page

We thank you for visiting our website. Here you can find information on the
company, services offered, projects completed and an overview of new and
upcoming projects so read on and learn more. We continuously update the
website to ensure everyone gets the latest on the news and updates of our
company.

Since the firm was originally formed in 1979 as John D. Bruce &
Associates, our clients have included universities, libraries, churches,
local school boards, hospitals and private building owners. Each project
is unique. We develop a scope of work and budget depending on the
building type, extent of problems and the client's resources and goals for
that project.

Our clients need to invest their resources in their buildings in the most
cost-effective manner. For each client this may mean a different strategy.
Because the funds to repair and upgrade buildings are often not all
available at once, we can develop alternative remedial strategies and
recommend where limited funds might be spent. We explain the
consequences of deferred and/or diminished scopes of work and indicate
how long various repairs can be postponed. There are often strategies
that involve partial restoration that will satisfy both the need to correct
pressing building problems and a client's financial constraints. The
secret to our ability to make these recommendations is our detailed
inspection that is the basis of the rest of our work. Without this inspection,
there can not be any informed discussion of strategies and budgets.

Overview of Our Services

JCH CONSULTING, INC. provides a wide range of building consulting
services to public and private clients. We perform inspections and
analysis, recommend specific repair programs, prepare specifications,
develop cost estimates and provide project management services. We
tailor our scope of work to the needs of the client. In some cases we may
perform only one of the above services and at other times provide the full
range of services. We work for building owners as prime consultants and
we also work for architects and engineers to address the building owner's
problem. You can get more details by clicking on the services offered
