“As lead attorney for the University of California, Santa Barbara, in a Construction Defect lawsuit involving a 10-year-old, 175,000 sq. ft. classroom/office complex suffering water intrusion, I was asked to locate a qualified EIFS inspector. We chose Mr. Robert J. Mault, Principal, EIFS & Stucco Inspection & Forensic Services to carry out a detailed inspection of the EIFS cladding on the building in question. Mr. Mault’s thorough forensic investigation revealed numerous defects that lurked beneath an otherwise normal looking building exterior. His broad knowledge of his field, detailed findings and reports were of great value in reaching a substantial settlement acceptable to the UC Regents.” ~ Christopher Haskell, Counselor at Law, Price, Postel & Parma, LLP


"I contracted EIFS & Stucco Inspection and Forensic Services to report on the installation of both EIFS & stucco systems on my Nave Shopping Center retrofit project in Novato, CA. Mr. Mault's assessments of installation conditions were exact and irrefutable. His expertise and comprehensive reports proved an invaluable asset to me for the duration of the project. EIFS & Stucco Inspection & Forensic Services provided me not only excellent service, but also reliability and confidence in its findings and recommendations -- in other words, peace of mind."
~ Harold Lezzeni, Architect-San Anselmo, CA.


"EIFS & Stucco Inspection and
Forensic Services provided a valuable service during the construction of the 17-story, 405 room, Courtyard by Marriott Hotel project in downtown San Francisco. Mr. Mault's detailed and timely inspection services, combined with his proactive approach, helped keep this large project on schedule while maintaining the highest level of quality. His vigilance, knowledge and professionalism were appreciated. I would not hesitate to use his services again."
