"We recently had Mega Power Electric Inc install a solar system and panels. The President and provided excellent communication all the way through the process. He even met with us after installation to explain the almost incomprehensible PG&E bill. Although not the least expensive bid, his was competitive and I felt he was as interested in educating me about solar and the various types of panels and inverter systems as he was in selling a system. He demonstrated how the array of panels would meet our energy needs and as opposed to some of the other companies, wasn't selling us more than we needed. We are very satisfied with our solar system and I highly recommended Mega Power Electric Inc."

"I rarely write reviews, but Result Construction deserves this shoutout. Converted my old garage into a stunning ADU that’s now the envy of my Sacramento neighborhood. The process was smooth, the team was friendly, and they actually listened to what I wanted. Plus, they finished ahead of schedule and under budget. Who does that? Result Construction does"

"They started off great, fast and professional. We had them create blue print plans from my design. I had to pay their full bill before they released final plans which was fine of course. However, my contractor and I ran into a problem on part of their design and engineering and that's when the service went to crap. The contractor and I have been trying to resolve the issue for more than two weeks little success, in fact just the runaround. The Engineer tells us he needs to talk to the architect; the architect says he'll talk to the engineer and nothing happens. That's gone on for two whole weeks. My project is a dead standstill for two weeks which is not acceptable. That's also screwed up the schedules of the contractor and their sub-contractors Therefore what would a bit of five star rating for these guys turned into a 1 to 2. I was very happy with the beginning of the process but once you pay them you can forget about any additional service if you have questions. On the plus side, they seem like nice people to work with, the plans were put together well, and their prices seemed reasonable. As noted above, their follow up service is completely lacking. I would gladly paid another designer more to get complete service that didn't leave me hanging for weeks on end. Today starts week 3 with no resolution."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

While concrete walls do not need to "breathe" in the traditional sense of the word, they do require waterproofing and dehumidifying methods, particularly in basements below the water table. Concrete both contains moisture from its initial installation and can absorb water when exposed. Ensuring proper basement ventilation , installing a vapor barrier, and controlling water exposure are all important tasks.

A split-level home is one that has several staggered floors connected by short staircases, while a split floor plan separates the primary bedroom from the rest of the bedrooms. Split floor plans are most often found in single-story homes, while split-level homes are always at least two stories.
