HECS delivers FORTIFIED Roof Evaluation across Licking County and east of Columbus along I-70. HECS is an NCI-certified, Louisville-Kentucky-headquartered testing firm serving Ohio since 2009.

Why Licking County property owners choose HECS for FORTIFIED Roof Evaluation

Local code officials, builders, developers, and program administrators across Ohio trust HECS for third-party FORTIFIED Roof Evaluation because we deliver:

  • NCI-certified field technicians — every HECS tech holds current IBHS FORTIFIED Home Evaluator credentials. The person who takes the readings is the person who signs your report.
  • Fixed-fee proposals in 24 hours — not estimates, not time-and-materials. We quote travel cost up front, so the invoice matches the proposal.
  • Reports that pass program review — IBHS FORTIFIED submission, insurer rebate programs. We deliver in the format your reviewer needs.
  • Local code expertise — Columbus projects reference the 2019 Ohio Building Code (based on 2018 IBC) with Ohio Board of Building Standards local amendments. Energy compliance follows the 2018 IECC with Ohio-specific amendments. OHFA requires ENERGY STAR Multifamily or NGBS Green certification for LIHTC-funded multifamily developments; many Columbus projects also pursue Enterprise Green Communities.
  • One project manager for the whole job — TAB, blower door, energy cert, FORTIFIED: we coordinate scheduling so you make one phone call, not five.

HECS is also an IBHS FORTIFIED Home Evaluator, RESNET Certified HERS Rater, ENERGY STAR Multifamily Reviewer, NGBS Green Certified Verifier, and EarthCraft Certified Verifier.

How quickly can HECS start a FORTIFIED Roof Evaluation project in Licking County?

Most FORTIFIED Roof Evaluation engagements in the Licking County metro schedule within 2-4 weeks of contract signing. Pre-construction document reviews and pre-drywall inspections are typically scheduled first; final / performance-test visits follow the contractor close-out schedule. Call (859) 983-7382 with your project timeline and we will confirm availability within 24 hours.

What does HECS do if the building does not pass FORTIFIED Roof Evaluation testing in Licking County?

If a measured value is outside the prescribed tolerance (e.g., ACH50 over the ENERGY STAR 3 ACH target, or duct leakage to outside above RESNET 380 thresholds), HECS documents the failure with photos and identify-codes for the offending building assemblies. We then work with your GC to schedule a targeted re-test of the failed assemblies after sealing. Re-tests are quoted at a fixed fee per visit (most projects pass after one targeted re-seal). Call (859) 983-7382 to discuss a specific failure-mode case.
