"For those who understand how much is involved with kitchen and bathroom renovations, you know how overwhelming it can be. For those new to it, itâ s amazingly tedious and intimidating. I had the pleasure of working with Leila on 2 kitchen and bathroom renovations for my last 2 houses. Her eye for details and design knowledge made it easy for me think outside my limited imagination for design. She made It easy to pick choices such as countertops, tile, paint for walls and cabinets all coordinating with the flooring. I could not be happier with the way the projects came out. I highly recommend Leila for her input in your next project. She is respectful, attentive to her clients needs and desires and understands the importance of staying within the budget. You will not be disappointed."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Signs of structural damage include foundation cracks, roof leaks, bouncy floors, crumbling concrete, and cracked or leaning chimneys. Structural damage can make itself apparent in various ways, and sometimes, there may not be obvious signs. Inspect your foundation and roof annually to stay ahead of potentially serious structural problems. 

A few hours for inspection, with a detailed report following in a week.

A freestanding brick wall that's only one brick thick can usually stand six to eight feet high. If you need a higher wall, it should be at least two bricks thick for adequate stability, and it might require a footing to support the added weight. Additionally, some areas have regulations and codes dictating how high a brick wall can be, so check with local code enforcers to ensure your proposed wall complies with any regulations.

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.

You need to hire a structural engineer when building or modifying any component with a structural load in your home. Common situations where you would need a structural engineer include home inspections when buying or selling a home, investigating possible issues with your foundation, beams, load-bearing walls, or chimneys, breaking ground on a new home or structure on your property, and renovating an old part of your home that could threaten any structural integrity. Home additions and bump-outs also require an engineer.
