About Bob

Engineering Without the Runaround.

Purdue educated. Licensed professional engineer. Southern Indiana experience. Straight answers.

Bob Malcomb has spent his career reading buildings — what is holding, what is moving, and what it will take to make it right.

A licensed engineer with a Purdue University engineering degree, Bob provides structural design, foundation inspections, and framing assessments for homeowners, builders, and business owners throughout Southern Indiana.

He inspects homes and foundations for buyers, banks, and real estate agents. When a house shows signs it settled sometime in the past, the structure is sound a large share of the time — or it can be fixed without a theater of piers. Most of the problems he sees are water under the foundation. It needs to be removed, and kept out.

Every inspection is done by Bob himself. There is no crew handing your report to a stranger and no pressure to buy anything.

Philosophy

What the job actually is

“My job isn't to sell you repairs. It's to tell you what's happening with your structure.”

That is why people call him back. He explains things plainly, shows up when he says he will, and stands behind what he writes down.

Bob's work also includes structural analysis and design for homes, businesses, churches, schools, and youth camps — the same load-path thinking, whether the building is a kitchen wall in Madison or a barn in the county.
