"Highly recommend! This is the second time I hired Michael Muntean for a structural analysis of my home and recommendations for repair. My house is a long ranch-style structure built in 1990. Mr. Muntean;s first analysis focused on the flooring underneath my kitchen area, as I requested, to ensure the structure was sufficient to support my kitchen renovation plan. His second visit six years later, focused on structural repairs necessary after I'd already done a major master bath renovation on the other side of the house. Key word: after Although the contractor who came out to address the kitchen support did good work, he fell short in working on the other structural issues Mr. Muntean had pointed out under the master bath area located on the opposite side of the house. I did not notice the omissions, and it came back to haunt me after the bathroom renovation was completed last year. Lesson learned: Obtain a professional engineering analysis before you begin any work that may affect the structural integrity of your home, and make sure any contractor you hire to do the work is qualified and meets or exceeds your consultants recommendations. Without Mr. Munteans guidance, especially on this second consult, I would have paid out twice as much money on repairs recommended by a well-known foundation company without really having had the core foundation problems addressed. Mr. Munteans reports are detailed, professional and customized for you, not cookie-cutter, so it may take up to 7-10 days to receive it. During his visit he encourages you to take notes. His pricing is competitive and he has absolutely no conflict of interest because he does not do the work, and typically will not recommend contractors. He strictly represents the home owner."

"The plans I asked for were very well executed. I have not yet implemented them so do not know if they are totally usable but will alter them if necessary. It was a positive experience and work was done in a timely fashion. Very professional."

They truly exceeded my expectations in every possible way. The value they added to my home goes beyond aesthetics; it’s about creating a space that reflects who I am and what I love. I could not have made a better choice than Live & Gather Co., LLC."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

According to the Earthquake Country Alliance—a public and private alliance in California that works to improve earthquake and tsunami readiness—reports that unreinforced masonry, such as stone, bricks, and hollow clay tiles, is more susceptible to earthquake damage. The mortar between bricks isn’t as stable as other building materials and methods.

Yes, you can put a doorway in a structural wall; in fact, most exterior doors are set into structural walls. The project is a little more challenging than installing a door in a non-load-bearing wall because you need a structural engineer to assess the wall and make sure it’s safe to create a wall opening. Your engineer’s report will include instructions for your contractor on how and where to install additional supports, like steel headers above the door, to distribute the weight above to the wall on either side of the door.

It's safe to assume that all exterior walls are load-bearing, or at least have load-bearing characteristics. Some older homes feature porches or bump-outs that don't rest on the home's foundation. However, they still must carry the weight of the roof section they support. Walls containing floor-to-ceiling glass or other non-structural elements must use post and beam configurations to meet load-bearing criteria.

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. 

If your home's foundation was damaged due to shifting soil, the same problem will reoccur unless you stabilize the structure by adding posts in the bedrock.
