Recent Structural Engineering Reviews in Columbus
- Buckeye Basement SolutionsWe had a structural support in our garage that had rusted out at the base which resulted in a drop in the upper structure of our house of an inch or more. Brian can out and reviewed the issue. He was confident he could fix it but suggested a professional engineer also examine and review before proceeding which he was able to coordinate and also pay for. Then Jay and Dave cut the concrete floor, removed the old support, poured a new concrete footing, installed a very professional looking new adjustable support, readjusted the support beam to its proper position and then replaced the cement floor that had been removed. I am extremely pleased with the work performed and the professionalism of the people I worked with. I would definitely use them again. Mark
- AIS Renovations LtdParks and Parks Sr met with my wife and I on several occasions through the process, it was a large job but the team was wrapped up in one week and we are not only happy with the work but we are very secure knowing our house has been improved by the work. It took some time to find the right company to work on our home, I am glad to have AIS address the challenges that our unique property posed. Can't wait to start the next project with the AIS team
- ABLE BUILDERS & INSPECTINGDave and his team did a phenomenal job installing steel beams on a foundation wall. Dave was informative and professional in his inspection, while his team was extremely polite and efficient. I would highly recommend Able Builders and will look to hire them again for future projects.
- Buckeye Basement SolutionsKevin and Jay came out and did an amazing job, I'd recommend any day of the week. The price was just right too! The turnaround time was quick, hassle free.
- Stay Dry Waterproofing - ColumbusThe entire experience was seamless. From the estimate by the owner Mark Minton, to the completion of the work by Nate and his crew. Nate answered all questions thoroughly and the job was finished on time with no disruption to my normal routine.
- Top Line Home Inspections, LLCFantastic! Top Line was early for the appointment and very knowledgeable and took time to explain everything they had found during the home inspection. The report included clearly defined issues and what they recommended to remedy the same. The report also included many pictures to help explain the issue. I would gladly use Top Line again
- Brian Engineering LLCI would highly recommend Brian Engineering if you are looking for an honest, straight forward opinion. Brian took my call on Sunday afternoon and I was able to set an appointment for that week. I had a basement company out before and they recommended steel beams for a basement wall, which I didn’t think would fix the seepage I had just starting seeing after heavy rains. Brian noted that my foundation was structurally fine and recommended having the drain pipe on that side of the house inspected. I took his recommendation and the video inspection showed a crushed pipe
- Criterium Liszkay EngineersThey are a great company to work with! I very much appreciate the ease of scheduling ( I submitted an online request Sunday late evening and I had an email Monday morning with a couple inspection times that were available), the quick responses, answering questions thoroughly, and being so helpful and friendly! The inspector was so easy to talk to, knowledgeable, and gave us all the information we needed. Very professional , punctual, and so nice to work with. As a former Realtor, and hearing this company's name over and over again, I knew I wanted them to do this inspection. They helped us make the decision we needed to make, regarding some extremely important repairs. Thank you so much
- Brian Engineering LLCBrian inspected our home after our first inspection fell through (with a different company) and gave us an impartial evaluation and a list of recommended repairs. We still closed on our first home on time - thank you!
- Rogers Basement WaterproofingWe cannot say enough positive things about Rogers Basement Waterproofing services. They completely redid our basement. The walls were cracking and bowing, we were getting leaks in heavy rains, and we were noticing mold in damp areas around the base. The Rogers crew reconstructed the drainage system, both outside and around the inside periphery of the basement, bolstered the walls with steel beams and painted and refurbished the basement walls. The workers arrived on time, knew what they were doing, worked efficiently and with focus, and were invariably gracious and respectful in answering and addressing questions. The charge and time required for job completion were precisely what was estimated and working with Paul, Nick, and the guys was a joy. We give them an A +++ rating

"It was great. Josh Betts returned my call first thing the next morning, and he was at the property quickly (and on a Sunday). Josh was right on time for the walk-through with our contractor. We had the repair plans the following afternoon. Josh is clearly very knowledgeable. I would recommend Betts Structural with absolutely no hesitation.

"Excellent! They were very hard workers. To avoid tracking through our house they did most work through a basement window. They reviewed the project with me prior to starting. Then Jack hammered out the entire perimeter of the basement, removed the debris which was a lot through the window, laid the waterproof drainage pipe, made a sump pump pit and installed pump, extended its drain out to the street, added concrete which they brought in through the window, over the drain. Very neat considering the work done and it has worked excellent for the past 5 months. No water seepage at all. They also braced one crawl space wall with 8 braces. Also well done. They did extras like spray mold mitigation in the crawl space and basement space which really worked to rid the mildew smell. They hauled out some wood that was in the way. They rolled out plastic on our upstairs floors each of the 3 days that they worked. They consulted with me during the project so I fully understood the work being done and they took into consideration any suggestion I had. I am very pleased.

"I was so fortunate to have AIS Renovations recommended to me by a friend here in Grove City. I hired them to remodel my kitchen. I was concerned about finding the quality I was seeking based on my budget. Aubrey worked with me, understood what I was looking for, and helped me find tremendous options that worked so well. From start to finish, the project was smooth and easy. Communication was great. All contractors were professional, clean and kind. My project stayed on schedule and on budget. I couldn’t be happier. I added a few windows along the way and they were able to incorporate that into the timeline. I will use them again and would recommend them to everyone! THANK YOU AIS!!

"He did an excellent job of inspecting and advising what our options were. Fortunately one of them was to monitor for any change. If we have to have any work done in the future, United Structural Systems will be the first we call. We were very impressed with their professionalism."
"Dave is great! I've used him on several jobs and will continue to. He cares, works hard and is honest/fair. His prices are very reasonable and his work speaks for itself. He did find some added work upon tearing out the old plumbing pipes, but that is to be expected in an old house. He didn't charge much extra and alerted me immediately. He is also fairly accommodating and calls back in a timely manner. He also calls to update you on the progress of the work. My only complaint is some of the final clean-up on the job, but I'm a neat freak and plaster work is very dusty!

"A neighbor recommended Phillips based on work they did on his daughter's house. I got 3 different quotes. One company quoted 16k, while Phillips and another reputable company quoted closer to 11k. I decided to go with Phillips because they were responsive, thorough, had an excellent reputation, and a professional approach. The fact that they are booking jobs 3 months in advance says something by itself. At my request, they stopped by the week before the job to inspect the prep work that was done and give feedback if anything else needed to be done. They completed the job over the course of the week as planned, and were in frequent communication with me about my questions along the way. The ground was too wet outside for them to complete the outside underground drain portion, so they prorated the fee based on what was completed and will be coming back in a couple of months to finish underground portion.

"I was very satisfied with the Rogers Basement Waterproofing work. I had several estimates done by other companies that were proposing a drainage system that is not optimal (there are several YT videos where their "patented system" is just ripped off since it does not work). Moreover, these companies do not take into account the fact that my basement is finished (I have a family room, bathroom, and two offices in the basement) and they just offer to destroy everything and let you rebuild it on your own afterwards. Paul was very considerate, installed only the internal drain where it was needed. I was surprised how clean they were (the job is messy, involves breaking the cement basement floor, digging the trench, filling it with gravel and drain pipe, installing the sump pump and pipes to connect to the storm sewer outside). The team was very efficient and organized, covered all the "traveled areas" with foil, and cleaned after their work. It took them 2 days during January, and I no longer have water problem. They are not "the cheapest" (but only a few hundred bucks more expensive than my least expensive estimate from other companies), but they did an excellent work. They do not push you with marketing techniques. Paul just said "If you are interested, just call us and if you want recommendations I can show you hundreds of them, since I did a lot of work in this are". I actually did not need then, since he was recommended by our friends that were very satisified with their work. I wholeheartedly recommend them.
