"After a nightmarish experience with a crooked contractor, I was left on my own to obtain plans and a permit for my unfinished deck. I reached out to ISTA - their structural engineer Pedram has been nothing short of amazing. He came to my property to verify measurements to make sure the drawings would meet code, spent a great deal of time observing all structures and pointing out in great detail everything that needed to be fixed for safety reasons (things that were missed by my city inspector), offered alternatives to costly fixes, then worked very quickly to draw plans as he empathized with my situation. He even called the city's building department and got everything resolved on the spot. Five minutes after his call, my permit was approved!! And through all this, Pedram was so friendly and empathetic. Everyone in that office I spoke to has been very nice as well. I will definitely use ISTA again for all my future projects."
"The owner and his assistant were fabulous. The customer service was friendly and all response times were faster than i could have ever expected. He was honest and thorough and spent the time helping me through the entire process. What a great experience during a stressful time. I would highly recommend AE Leuken to anyone needing a structural engineer."
"I enjoyed our first meeting—in which Chuck asked good questions and listened closely to my answers—and after seeing the early sketches I decided to go ahead with the project. Chuck began by exploring the existing house, making measurements, studying details, and doing numerous sketches. His enthusiasm for the project was encouraging. We collaborated frequently as he developed detailed plans and had them professionally reviewed. The plans moved easily through the permitting process, and they impressed the contractor and his subs once work began: I heard many times that the architect’s drawings and notes were more clear and complete than those they are used to working with. Chuck stayed involved throughout the project, helping me make decisions and offering creative solutions to the small difficulties that arose."

Be cautious of quotes that overlook Colorado Springs’ unique soil movement challenges or don’t mention drainage solutions. Extremely low bids may skip essential steps like structural inspection or soil testing. Avoid professionals who rush you to decide or lack experience with local conditions. Look for detailed, locally tailored solutions and always request references from previous projects completed in Colorado Springs.

In Colorado Springs, homeowners should account for expansive clay soils, which can cause significant soil movement and foundation shifting. The area’s freeze-thaw cycles and high altitude can also impact building materials and structural stability. If your property is on a slope or near drainage paths, slope stability and water management are crucial. Always review HOA guidelines and historic district requirements before starting your project.

Completing structural engineering projects in Colorado Springs provides immediate safety improvements by addressing foundation cracks and structural weaknesses.

Your Colorado Springs home may need structural engineering if you notice stair-step cracks, uneven floors, sticking doors, or gaps at walls and ceilings—especially after seasonal changes. Homes on hillsides or with visible soil movement, recurring drainage issues, or older additions are at higher risk. If you’ve experienced storm damage or shifting patios, a professional structural inspection is recommended to assess underlying concerns.

In Colorado Springs, unexpected costs often arise from the need for detailed geotechnical analysis due to clay soils, additional soil stabilization, or deeper excavation if unstable ground is found. Weather delays, especially from snow or rapid temperature changes, can extend timelines. You may also encounter extra expenses for plan revisions, structural inspections, or addressing previously undetected drainage or utility issues uncovered during the project.
