"Mr Mikaeel immediately contacted me once I put in a request on Home Advisor. He explained his services and he offered me more options than I had received from other engineers. Those options included paying less money which I appreciated right away. He knew I didn't have much time to work with and we scheduled the next day. He arrived on time, was very personable, very professional, explained what I needed to know and also gave me great news. I will recommend him to anyone that needs a structural engineer Thank you Home Advisor!"

"Anthony and John were a pleasure to work with! They took our vision and made it a reality! Their suggestions in some of the planning were spot on and made our house our dream home. They were responsive to our requests and would take the time to explain to us why they were suggesting certain features. So easy to work with, friendly, funny and timely! True professionals with the added touch of feeling like you’re working with family. They were truly invested in our project and it truly showed in EVERY detail. I would welcome the opportunity to work Bruttaniti Architecture in the future and would certainly recommend them to anyone for any of your architecture needs!!"

"Neil and Katelyn are the best. They listened to our “wants”. They gave us several designs to choose. We took many of their suggestions. When we submitted the plans for obtaining the permit, we received approval in a few days. No problems at all. We had a few contractors bid on the job. They were very happy to receive the plans. I am so happy I found them through Home Advisors!!!!"

"They were excellent. They quickly made a draft that only needed 3 minor adjustments. The final product was exactly what I needed. They referred me to a structural engineer for review. The whole process took half of the time that they initially estimated. I would definitely use them again."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

In Newark, a typical residential structural assessment or design phase takes one to four weeks, with permit approvals adding two to four weeks. Foundation repairs or basement waterproofing projects often last one to three weeks, while larger renovations involving load-bearing walls may extend up to twelve weeks. Weather delays, soil conditions, and historic district reviews can increase timelines, especially during peak construction seasons.

Helpful?

Newark homeowners should start spring by inspecting foundations and basement walls for cracks from winter frost. In summer, monitor for settling and check attic framing for moisture issues. Fall is ideal for clearing gutters and checking roof supports before heavy rain. During winter, watch for ice dams and water infiltration. Pay attention to shifting soil conditions and vibrations from nearby traffic, which can affect structural stability year-round.

Helpful?

In Newark, be wary of structural engineering quotes that lack clear breakdowns of services, omit details about compliance with local building codes, or don’t address Newark’s unique soil conditions and historic property requirements. Avoid professionals who refuse to provide references, pressure you for immediate decisions, or request unusually large upfront payments. Insist on written contracts and ensure the quote covers all phases, including foundation repairs and load-bearing wall modifications.

Helpful?

Newark homeowners frequently request basement waterproofing, foundation upgrades, and egress window installations due to the area’s high water table. Open concept layouts—such as removing load-bearing walls and installing steel beams—are in demand. Reinforced decks and screened porches for outdoor living are popular, as are structural supports for solar panels and home offices. Many historic homes near the university also require specialized framing solutions.

Helpful?

In Newark, foundations are especially prone to settling and water intrusion because of clay soils and a high water table. Roof framing and chimneys can suffer from snow loads and freeze-thaw cycles. Older homes often develop sagging floors or weakened beams. Exterior structures like decks and retaining walls may fail due to poor drainage or shifting soil conditions. Tree roots and nearby road vibrations also pose risks to structural integrity.
