"I had the pleasure of working with Aws on a recent project and was thoroughly impressed by his professionalism and efficiency. He delivered a clean, straightforward structural design that met all the necessary requirements without unnecessary complexity. Aws was fast, reliable, and highly communicative throughout the process, making coordination smooth and strass-free. On top of that, the pricing was very reasonable. I highly recommend Aws and his firm for any structural engineering needs. They offer a great combination of expertise, responsiveness, and value."

"Art and his team were incredibly responsive, punctual, and did great work. Also, their price was about 50% lower than competitors. I'm no engineer, but their system to approaching foundations seems quite innovative. Our floor feels much harder as a result."

"They were awesome. We had a remodel done and they are going to come back and finish up some job. Him and his son were the hardest workers. They were really good. They came early in the morning and they stayed until the job was done. They did not even call off early. They worked so hard, because they did not want my house torn up for a long time. We looked for a long time for framers and they were so good. I was very happy with them. They called when they said they would call. If they were late, they would call and let us know; not very many people do that. We would definitely recommend them. They gave us the best quote out of everybody. We looked for four years for somebody and we had outrageous quotes. We were able to do the whole thing under $10,000 and that was our number, and we had people quote us double that. They did not think this job was too small for them, they did not care, they took it."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

A structural engineer’s report is almost always worth it, as it can help you avoid buying or overpaying for a home with structural issues. The most important thing the report does for you is provide peace of mind that you won’t have to pay thousands of dollars for structural repairs right after closing on a property.

Proper licensing and experience in residential and commercial structural projects.

First, most contractors will have a structural engineer create a report and plan for your project to ensure it’s safe to cut into the load-bearing wall. The contractor will then excavate around the wall, if necessary, measure the opening—allowing for additional space to fit and level the door, and then cut the doorway out. They will likely install a steel lintel as a header over the door for support. Once the doorway is cut out, they’ll demolish the concrete using sledge hammers and masonry chisels, clean up the surrounding concrete, and seal around the door with masonry mortar. 

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.
