"Evolution design worked with me on designing and addition for a 100 and 5 year old house. We worked on the dimensions of the addition Plus the materials. Evolution understood the local zoning which was amazing that they knew that. We have not started construction. And evolution can help pull the permits and I'm considering them for that as well. All in all it was a long project but it was done efficiently, working with several of the staff an the departments."

"Our remodeling project was completed on February 2018 with cost of over 120,000. We could not have been more satisfied with the high quality of work that was accomplished by Cielo Construction. Their promise to make us feel happy and by answering all of our questions and carefully and the reaction to any of our questions, emergency, and more... Our remodeling project was big and took few months to finish, fairly priced and very involved. It involved lots of coordination between many people, such as, architects, engineers, painters, plasterers, plumbers, electricians and the list go on and on. All the remodeling work was finished professionally and flawlessly. All their Ideas that were given to us for suppliers and vendors.. were also excellent and all the materials that we got and used were top notch. Cielo Construction staff and Dylan (project manager) were able to keep the overall costs within the agreed budget. We recommend them strongly and without reservation. Pretty much on budget and on time!!!!!"

"If you are reading this, you are looking for an honest and knowledgeable roofing company. Progress home remodeling is that company. We had our old roofing removed and replaced on our rental house. We received excellent service from beginning to end. Bobby and his team kept open communication with me during the entire process. They cleaned up each evening, leaving the house clean and tidy. My admiration for this team as the outside weather hit 105+ every single day, and Ruben's team showed up for work every day and completed the job on time. Our house looks beautiful with the new roof. Thank you so much for the amazing job!"

"I needed more space. I am a single mother with a son in college and 2 teenage daughters. My home was a fairly typical 50’s ranch style with 3 bedrooms and 1 bath. The lot is small and recent planning regulations had diminished the buildable area of the back yard considerably. A couple of designers had told me that I could not get a new Master bedroom suite with a full bath and walk-in closet without adding a second story. That cost was beyond my budget. A contractor friend referred me to Craig Young and his company, Architecture and Engineering Associates. Craig had gotten some very specific information from the City before our first meeting. He showed me how he could accomplish my goals by economically reconfiguring the current floor plan and adding new construction in the available space at the rear. I was amazed! The new master suite was much nicer than I had expected and the interior of the existing space opened up and became much more useable and attractive. In addition to preparing the plans (structural engineering and energy efficiency report), he also represented me to the City. His plans were apparently quite thorough as they were examined and approved in less than 2 hours! He assured me that this is very rare but I think it was amazing. Craig was easy to deal with. He kept his appointments, returned calls, and did it all with a great attitude. He did what he said, when he said, for the price he said. My kids each have their own rooms and are very happy. I am thrilled with my new Suite and privacy. We all enjoy the open space and ease of use of the re-created kitchen, dining, living, and laundry space."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes. Foundation walls are always load-bearing.

Yes, you can put a doorway in a structural wall; in fact, most exterior doors are set into structural walls. The project is a little more challenging than installing a door in a non-load-bearing wall because you need a structural engineer to assess the wall and make sure it’s safe to create a wall opening. Your engineer’s report will include instructions for your contractor on how and where to install additional supports, like steel headers above the door, to distribute the weight above to the wall on either side of the door.

It is not recommended to cut or drill into LVL (laminated veneer lumber) beams. As major structural components of a home, their composite structure can be compromised by alterations, which can weaken them and lead to cracking over time. If you must make modifications to an LVL beam, it is crucial to consult a structural engineer or general contractor first. A professional can advise on whether it's safe and provide specifics on the appropriate bit size, depth, and directionality for any necessary drilling.

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.
