"HC Structural Engineering was asked to evaluate the structural integrity of an office building that was constructed in 1983 and that was upgraded after the Loma Prieta earthquake in 1989. Humza Chowdhry and his team were incredibly focused, understood what needed to be accomplished, completed their work on schedule, provided me with an excellent report with detailed suggestions and recommendations and they completed this project on budget. They promised a lot and delivered everything that they promised. I give them my highest recommendation."

"Working with Francisco and his team was amazing! From start to finish, they made the whole process of remodeling my house so easy and stress-free. Francisco really listened to what I wanted and came up with creative ideas. He was very responsive and always kept me in the loop. The final result is even better than I imagined. My house looks incredible and I’ve gotten so many compliments from friends and family."

"There was good communication among all members of the team, especially with Daniel, our project manager. When we had issues, he went above and beyond to get them resolved, weather it was product resourcing or dealing with unexpected issues. We had a good idea of how our final project would look like because we had 3D drawings from their designer who, also assisted us in procuring all materials prior to the start of the project. We were very happy with the quality of the workmanship, especially because the previous contractor had done such a poor job on our bathrooms. The quality standards of the B&B team are superior. As far as timeliness, our job was delayed because of product delays but would otherwise have been completed on time. We are absolutely happy with our bathrooms and with the job that B&B performed."

He takes a lot of pride in his services and overall it was a great experience working with him. I already recommend him to people I know, and will myself hire Mark again for my next project!"

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

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

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.

The best way to determine if ceiling cracks are structural is to hire a ceiling contractor to inspect the cracks and provide a professional opinion. That said, you might be able to make an educated guess based on the size and appearance of the crack. Larger cracks, cracks accompanied by sagging or discoloration, and cracks that travel from the ceiling down the walls are all signs of structural issues.

Costs depend on unit complexity, labor, wall mounting needs, and additional accessories like floating shelves.
