"Excellent experience again with Alpha Structural. Charlie Rosenkranz came to see the 3-story apartment building in West Hollywood. We discussed what the soft story retrofit plans will likely include. He's knowledgeable and experienced. We appreciated his professional no-pressure approach and answering our questions. Alpha performed an exploratory investigation of the support structure, as architectural plans were not available. They engineered the plans with city approval. They then consulted with us and provided the approved THP (Tenant Habitability Plan) paperwork. Production Manager Dave Schlaich and Job Supervisor Seth Price met me before construction. Dave went over the approved plans and explained the work that would be performed, and the purpose. They both answered all my questions. Lawrence and Antonio were the main work team. They were very pleasant and answered all our questions. Both had great explanations with Lawrence being very detailed. Seth provided timely progress reports by phone and text. He answered all questions, and provided contacts for automatic shut-off gas valves and stucco work. Despite Covid-19, they scheduled and passed inspections, and completed the work in under a month. We've seen projects by other companies stuck in limbo for months with no progress, so we chose Alpha to avoid complications. They removed all debris, and left the property clean. The tenants and neighbors had no complaints. Daniel Aparicio also explained various issues. Communication with everyone, including the office staff, was excellent. We're very pleased with this experience."

"We recently got turned down by the city of riverside on getting a roof permit. After many calls trying to find an engineer we came across new beginnings engineering. We gave them a call and Jonathon was here by the next day to inspect the roof. That same evening Trina sent us a letter that we could present to the city. Our roof contractor was able to get the approval from the city with no more issues. If I could give them 10 stars I would. We had a great experience working with them. They are quick and efficient; I cannot recommend them enough"

"I've had the recent good fortune to work with Tolga on renovation projects in Los Angeles and Manhattan Beach for which I am the Architect. The success of renovation work relies heavily on collaborative and creative structural engineering in order to realize interior and exterior architecture goals. Tolga instinctively understood my design goals and in a very professional manner he crafted solutions to bring them to reality. Many thanks Tolga. I look forward to our next collaboration."

"We have been working with Sam on our home project to take down a load bearing wall and we are pleased with his work. I liked that he enjoyed small projects and the city engineer approved the plans the first time they were submitted. He also has come by to inspect the work our contractor has performed and advised the corrections that needed to be made so our home would be structurally sound. I highly recommend."

"David and his team did a great job with the drawings for our room addition remodeling project. We added a large section to the back of the house and created a 1 bedroom and a bathroom room with a small kitchen. David came up with comprehensive blueprints for the entire remodeling project, and he also generated a great 3D renderings of the addition for us. He also got for us all the permits from the city."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Combining structural engineering with other upgrades in Long Beach can minimize disruptions and streamline your project. Coordinating seismic retrofitting with foundation repairs or major remodels allows you to consolidate permit applications and inspections. This approach often leads to better scheduling, fewer construction delays, and improved overall project efficiency, making it easier to manage home improvements in a busy coastal city.

Helpful?

Be cautious of quotes in Long Beach that overlook seismic or soil factors, lack detail about retrofit needs, or provide vague project scopes. Unusually low estimates, requests for large upfront payments, or missing proof of insurance are warning signs. A reputable professional will outline clear timelines, address local permit and inspection requirements, and provide transparent communication before starting any work.

Helpful?

For Long Beach projects, choose materials designed for seismic resilience and coastal durability. Engineered lumber, high-strength concrete, and corrosion-resistant hardware are essential to withstand earthquakes and salt air. Using epoxy-coated rebar and marine-grade concrete additives helps protect structures exposed to the marine environment, while stainless steel fasteners offer extra defense against rust and long-term deterioration.

Helpful?

When hiring in Long Beach, prioritize professionals with proven experience in seismic design and coastal construction. Look for familiarity with local soil types and retrofit requirements. Ask about recent projects in the area and verify insurance coverage. Strong communication skills and a history of successful work on similar homes in coastal CA are also important for a smooth, reliable project.

Helpful?

In Long Beach, structural engineering maintenance should include routine seismic retrofitting checks, monitoring for foundation settlement, and inspecting steel for corrosion from salt air. After any earthquake, schedule a structural evaluation to catch hidden damage early. It’s also smart to look for moisture intrusion in concrete and have soft-story buildings reviewed regularly, as local conditions can accelerate wear and compromise safety.
