"KATZ DESIGN & BUILDERS 10313 Los Alamitos Blvd, Los Alamitos, ca 90720 Rating 1 * for a WRITTEN and SIGNED contract of $13,000, the bill changed to $14,835. Stay away from KATZ DESIGN & BUILDERS in LOS ALAMITOS. I would give it a zero star if that was an option. Most dishonest company we have ever hired. Our kids’ house needed to have a fire pit filled in. KATZ sent an employee named VAL in person to discuss of the work that needed to be done. VAL wrote a contract which we agreed upon, of the amount of $13,000. Mid way through the project, VAL sounded very upset and told us that he must charge us $1,835 more if we want the job finished. Val then gave us a new invoice, a total of $14,835. We were 7 hrs away on a car trip. VAL actually asked us to leave him a positive 5* rating, after jacking the cost of the job up considerably. Furthermore, one worker brought while working at the site. We got back the next day, contacted the KATZ office and spoke to CHERYL who acted completely surprised that VAL has given us a contract with the extra charge. CHERYL indicated that she would talk to the PRESIDENT and VAL to straighten everything out. We then received a PDF file, written by the PRESIDENT and VAL , indicating that our kids’ house would have a MECHANIC’S LIEN placed on it we did not acquiesce and pay the additional amount. We are retirees but for nearly 30 yrs, we too had business where we never advertised and never had to. Business came to us by word of mouth and a sterling reputation. If we were to have run our business as dishonest as KATZ DESIGN & BUILDERS appeared to have been, we would have been out of business. We heartily do NOT RECOMMEND KATZ DESIGN & BUILDERS, AS THEY ARE THE MOST DISHONEST COMPANY."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Through proper drainage solutions and compacting the foundation soil.

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.

Water can seep into porous materials like wood beams, floor joists, and roof rafters within minutes, but they’ll need to see prolonged exposure before you have structural damage. Mold can start growing within 24 hours, and mold can eat away at the structural components over time. Wood rot is more of a concern, though. Wet and dry rot are fungal infections that set in in moist conditions and rapidly deteriorate wood, causing major structural damage within just a few months in some cases.

Yes, an LVL beam is more affordable than the cost of a steel I-beam, totaling between $50 and $200 per linear foot as opposed to the $100 to $400 per linear foot you’d pay for a steel I-beam. Not only is the wood material more affordable than steel, but it’s also more similar to traditional wooden beams and doesn’t require as much retrofitting to connect joists.

It’s possible to drill into an LVL beam, but you should always avoid it. LVL beams are major structural components of your home, and drilling into them can weaken them and lead to cracking over time. If you need to drill into an LVL beam, consult a structural engineer. They’ll know the bit size, depth, and directionality that’s safe to use when drilling.

By submitting this question, I acknowledge and agree that Angi may publicly display my name, city, state, and question on the website for professionals and others to see.
