Foundation Consulting & Coordination – Puget Sound

Foundation Planning, Layout & Inspection Support – Puget Sound, WA

🧱 Start With a Solid Foundation—Literally and Logistically

The foundation sets the tone for everything that follows. If it’s off, slow, or unclear—your framing, inspections, and timelines will suffer.

JWS Consulting offers foundation planning, layout review, permit support, and construction coordination for residential builds across the Puget Sound.

We bridge the gap between engineering drawings, city permitting, and field execution—so your crew can pour with confidence.

  • Site-specific plan adjustments (grade, access, setbacks)

  • Anchor bolt, footing, and hold-down layout assistance
