structural repairs
Framework restoration work
Structural repairs are fixes to the load-bearing elements of a building—the foundation, framing, walls, and supports that hold everything up.
Distinguished from cosmetic repairs or routine maintenance, structural repairs address problems that threaten a building's integrity: The inspector found cracks requiring structural repairs before the sale could close.
Insurance policies and warranties often treat structural repairs differently from other work.
