Recent Structural Engineering Reviews in Cincinnati
- SI&A Engineering LLCDavid was great!! I reached out and he quickly came out, did a thorough inspection of our walls, roof and the structure of our home. He was able to answer all of our questions about of project and gave us a couple of choices for a design. He then had a quick turn around for the drawings needed for the permit... within a week! And gave us a few more design options that we weren't expecting! He went a step further and helped me with ordering lumber and what to do for our permit. He was awesome!! Thanks David!
- Cole Engineering SolutionsCole Engineering Solutions sent a structural engineer, Chris Egan, to evaluate a problem with our poured foundation. He gave solid recommendations that we intend to follow. He also provided a list of contractors.
- Tracy Mitchell PEWe were impressed with the services we received. We had what we thought was "erupting" concrete in the garage of our home, around a support pole. Tracy Mitchell came out within the week. He fully assessed our situation, took pictures and submitted a detailed written report. Our situation was that the rest of the garage floor had settled some (30 yr old home) and around the pole it stayed at the original elevation, making it seem higher than the rest of the floor. Tracy Mitchell then proceeded to inspect our basement and the external walls of the home, concluding that it was solid and in very good structural condition, with no settling of the structure. Some cracks in foundation wall that leak a little are not structurally concerning and he suggested how they could be addressed
- Indiana Foundation ServiceThe total job was well done and has a life time warranty as long as the house is here. They worked very hard and cleaned up as they went I was always kept informed when any problems arose and had input on how to proceed.
- Criterium-Cincinnati EngineersWhile working on purchasing a home, I needed a quick and thorough review of some items of concern before closing on the house. Criterium's engineers and representatives were responsive, professional, and thorough. They took time to explain things in terms I could understand and they went above and beyond to respond on short notice
- Criterium-Cincinnati EngineersMatthew was great! He was able to schedule my inspection and quickly turn around a WELL WRITTEN report that included practical solutions. For the eye of an experienced engineer and a quality inspection, I would definitely recommend Criterium Cincinnati.
- Criterium-Cincinnati EngineersGreat services. Setting up the appointment was flawless. Communication was great. The owner, Matt met me at my property and was friendly, punctual and informative. Matt spoke in a way that allowed me to feel informed and educated. The report was well written, easy to Read and submitted to me within 24-36hrs following our appointment. I will hire and refer anyway I can
- Criterium-Cincinnati EngineersExcellent. Matt provided detailed information of what needed to be done to correct the issues and submitted his report quickly so closing of the property could move forward
- Criterium-Cincinnati EngineersWent very well. Scheduling went very smooth, along with getting an appointment quickly. Matt the engineer who came to my home was knowledgeable, thorough, friendly and professional.
- Criterium-Cincinnati EngineersThe inspector was on time and very knowledgeable. I feel he gave a thorough inspection and evaluation of the retaining wall and patio area that we had some concerns about for a home we are under contract to purchase. The price was higher than I would have thought for a short inspection of a limited area, however, the inspector gave some value added time by walking around the house with me and pointing out some other areas of concern and recommendations
