“Mavin Consulting is a fantastic company to work with! Justin and his team are an invaluable resource to have on speed dial. They provided exceptional guidance and made several industry connections that were instrumental in helping us recover from a devastating fire at our manufacturing plant. Their expertise was critical in navigating the steps necessary to work through our insurance claim.”

"Mavin Consulting turned our HOA's nightmare into a success story. After a major roofing collapse due to snow load in Steamboat Springs left our buildings uninhabitable, we spent 10 months lost in the insurance claim and reconstruction maze, literally going in circles and making no progress. It was extremely difficult understanding what we had available from an insurance claim perspective and navigating the entire process. Enter Justin and his team at Mavin—recommended by a colleague who had used their services—and everything changed. From the very first phone call, Justin's expertise and willingness to help were unmatched, even before we officially hired them. The amount of info and knowledge he shared before even being on the clock was just amazing.
We hired Mavin to help us, and they quickly mobilized, brought in their skilled team and assessed our situation. In just a few months, they resolved our insurance issues, helped us line up a reputable contractor, and we had hammers swinging by April. By July, residents were moving back in—a timeline that would have been impossible without their leadership. The entire ordeal of us being out of our units for 20 months could’ve been cut in half if Mavin had been involved from the beginning.
Justin's professionalism, communication, and dedication were beyond impressive. He kept us informed, educated, and reassured us every step of the way. Justin is truly an upstanding character. He reminds you of the way things are supposed to be in business. His ability to navigate complex situations with ease made all the difference. Thanks to Mavin, we went from chaos to resolution in record time. They truly set the standard for how business should be done.”

“One of the more challenging aspects the Board encountered when attempting to resolve our fire loss with the carrier was documentation. In the end, we were able to restore the building and get everyone moved back into their units. This would not have occurred without the documentation we received from Justin. Stated simply, there was too much information that is unique to restoration construction, insurance law, and new code requirement interpretation for the board or our contractor to manage this well. At the present, the Board remains indebted to Mr. Willits. His competence and thoroughness made a significant difference to our restoration of the building.”

“I’ve known Justin for over 20 years and worked with him multiple times on large loss projects throughout the nation. He’s highly efficient, knows construction inside and out, and can be relied on for accurate scopes and information delivered on time. The team is excellent at communicating, providing project updates, and making projects efficient and effective for all the various parties involved. Can’t say enough good things about Justin and his team, simply great to work with.”

“When it comes to technical proficiency in building consulting, Mavin is the cream of the crop. I work primarily with Justin Willits and have not come across anybody in the industry that is more valuable than him from a consulting perspective. The entire team is the best I’ve worked with. They provide a high-quality work product, and when it comes to claim settlements, some consultants think their opinion is all that matters, but that is not the case with Mavin. They listen to the facts, consider both sides, and work with all parties to reach an amicable solution to what can be a contentious situation. If there are pricing or scope discrepancies, they don’t just rely on Xactimate; they do the necessary research to find accurate pricing and scope. They go above and beyond to make sure what we’re calculating is the right measurement. Mavin is unbiased, committed to accuracy, and works on both sides, which I find to be a positive.”

“This is one of the rare consulting groups out there that is accurate, timely, professional. I’ve worked with these guys on fire, hail and wind losses. My experience has been very positive in terms of value and cost. They’re practical. They’re always looking for alternative solutions. They’re cost conscious. It’s honesty. It’s professionalism. It’s respect for me, respect for the process, and respect for accuracy.”

Attorney, McWherter Scott & Bobbitt
“When we bring in a building consultant like Mavin, it’s no longer my relationship with the adjuster or my relationship with the agent or my relationship with the policyholder. It’s a consultant’s professional opinion. We may or may not agree with each other, but it doesn’t threaten the relationship. Whether it’s writing an Xactimate estimate, the administration, or documentation, this team exceeds industry best practices. Every person is top notch.”
