Customers say: Super punctual

I can fix most things around the house, and I love assembly jobs! I have been doing handyman work since i was about 7(I'm 21 now) when my dad passed. I will be the main one showing up to complete the job as I am owner operated and ran(with the exception of a helper depending on the size of the project) My flexibility is matched by none, you need someone at night? during the morning? Do you work odd hours? Leave it to Sebastian!

"It was glued on and the glue did not stay. He returned to do other work and he re-glued the plastic. It has come apart again. It is not going to stay and now I have to hire someone else who knows what to do to repair it."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Precast concrete can be reinforced with rebar, wire mesh, or other materials to improve its strength and add stability. Precast concrete for large construction projects is often pre-stressed as well for greater structural strength. Reinforced concrete is durable and strong, making it an ideal choice for many construction projects.

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

The depth of any foundation style depends on your climate and how deep the frost line is, as building code requires that the footers of a foundation—which are built into a monolithic slab—sit at least a foot below the frost line. At the southern tip of Florida, for example, a monolithic slab foundation would only need to sit 12 inches under the soil at the widest parts. On some parts of the Canadian border, the frost line is 100 inches, which would mean a minimum of 112 inches, which is prohibitively deep for a monolithic slab.

Because of their composite structure, cutting or drilling LVL beams can compromise their integrity. We strongly advise contacting a general contractor or structural engineer before making any alterations to LVL beams. Professionals can also answer questions about choosing between a pier and beam versus slab foundation when designing your project.

A structural engineer evaluates any structural components, like floors, foundations, walls, and roofs, to ensure they can support the structure. They also consider the soil quality in your area, potentially extreme weather conditions, and proximity to bodies of water and groundwater to ensure your building can withstand any stresses placed on it by the surrounding environment. Structural engineers work on both new and existing buildings.
