"Todd's team did an excellent job building our deck. The quality of their work is excellent and the deck looks fantastic. They completed the job in a timely manner. We found Todd to be knowledgeable, trustworthy and reliable. He's also a nice guy and very easy to work with, as were his workers. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend or hire Todd (T James) and his team again for construction work. We also used the structural engineer Todd recommended to prepare the engineering plans, and that process went very smoothly too."

"We purchased a home a few months ago, and knew that we wanted to build an addition as well as remodel the kitchen. Living here for a few months now we also realized some other parts of the home could use an upgrade, like heating and electrical.
Goodfellas was one of several companies who we contacted to provide estimates and to walk us through their approach on such a project. Tom Levi of their San Jose office got back to use very quickly, and was able to meet onsite just a few days later. We talked extensively about our requirements, priorities and ideas, and we felt Tom had a great sense of what will be important for us and how he could help us make things work - both budget as well as time-wise.
We very much appreciated Tom's honesty and realistic expectation setting, which was nice to see compared to some of the "sales talk" we got from other companies.
Tom continued to be very responsive throughout the process, usually getting back to us within just a few hours and providing clear and concise answers and proposals.
We have now signed the contract for architectural/engineering/permit services - a first step in this larger project. And we are looking forward to starting the work with Tom and his team in January.

"I had to remodel my kitchen that was not planned. The Brother & Brother Builders team provided different remodel quotes to update my living space. I am glad I chose this builder because they were so knowledgeable and provided suggestions that increased the functionality of my home. The remodel was on budget and the team, Andres, Jorge and Nir answered all of my questions and concerns. Great group of people to work with."

FAQs for structural engineering projects in Concord, CA

No, it’s not legal for unlicensed individuals to conduct structural calculations for buildings or building repairs. Not only do licensing requirements prevent DIYers from tackling this project, but mistakes can also be extremely dangerous and put your property and anyone inside or near it at risk of severe injury or even death. You should always hire a licensed and certified local structural engineer to make structural calculations.

Yes, all states require structural engineers to carry the proper license, with specifics determined by each state. You can use Angi’s state licensing tool to confirm that the structural engineer you’re considering holds the required licensing to tackle your job. Hiring an unlicensed structural engineer will not only cause issues with permits but it could also lead to an unsafe building. The cost of a professional, licensed, and experienced engineer is well worth the investment.

The process of hiring a structural engineer starts by finding reliable professionals in your area and comparing quotes from at least three of them. From there, you can narrow down your selection by asking some leading questions:

  • Do you have experience working in my specific area?

  • Do you have professional indemnity insurance?

  • What will your structural report cover?

  • Do you charge a flat fee for a structural report or by the hour?

  • How long have you been in business?

  • Do you have a list of customer references?

Structural engineers typically charge between $100 and $250 per hour, but many jobs won’t be based on a per-hour fee. Instead, the structural engineer will offer a flat rate for the inspection and structural calculations. The flat rate for a structural engineer costs an average of around $550, but you could see prices ranging from $300 to $800, depending on the complexity of your project and how easy it is to access certain parts of your home for the inspection.

Whether you’re building a new home or building an extension on your existing property, you will likely need both a structural engineer and an architect. A structural engineer will determine what loads your foundation and framing can safely handle, and an architect will draw plans according to those structural calculations to simplify the building process. You can start by contacting a structural engineer near you, as many work alongside architects and can get all of the prep work done at once.
