"I requested a quote through Angie's List and Donald called that same evening. He came out and quoted to demo porch and replace 3 structural posts. He suggested my best, budget friendly, option and completed the work. He was very communicative. I would hire again."

"I had a fantastic experience working with this drafting firm. From the very first phone call, Kirsten?our drafting consultant? was clear, professional, and incredibly helpful. She explained the entire process in detail and made sure all of my questions were answered up front, which gave me immediate confidence in the team. This firm partnered with engineers and architects to get the best quote for me on a stamp for my plans after they did an exceptional job on drawing the prints that met all the requirements for permitting. Their coordination and attention to detail made the process very simple on my end. If you are looking for a highly capable drafting firm that knows how to get things done right, I highly recommend them!"

We specialize in residences and commercial buildings of all sizes, particularly frame structures and in all occupancy classifications. We do renovations and adaptive reuses of older buildings. Started in 1969 as in-house designers for an Atlanta homebuilder, the company was acquired in 1987 by project manager Phillip Andrew Jessup, who expanded the company in 1988 to include architectural services. From 1998 through 2000, we re-organized and expanded our focus to include renovation, remodeling, & interior design. From 2001 through 2003, we added Internet marketing of our extensive collection of home plans. Recent projects include a 5,000 sq. ft new estate home in a "sacred grove" planted by early settlers, several new 1500 - 2200 sq. ft. bungalows and narrow-lot urban homes, an award-winning expansion & renovation of a century-old bungalow, a kitchen re-design, basement finishing and bonus room expansions, a 13,000 sq. ft computer operations center for a financial institution, a traditional Tacqueria restaurant, a Bank branch, a Convenience Store in a quonset hut, and a school & classroom expansion to a church. Clients return to us for confidence in our sound & innovative designs that meet code, get permits, and are buildable. We hope you will, too.

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Water can seep into porous materials like wood beams, floor joists, and roof rafters within minutes, but they’ll need to see prolonged exposure before you have structural damage. Mold can start growing within 24 hours, and mold can eat away at the structural components over time. Wood rot is more of a concern, though. Wet and dry rot are fungal infections that set in in moist conditions and rapidly deteriorate wood, causing major structural damage within just a few months in some cases.

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.

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.

In many areas, advice from a structural engineer or an architect will be required by your building department before you can remove a wall, but even if it’s not necessary, it’s a good idea. Accidentally removing a load-bearing wall—even if a general contractor advises that it’s safe—can cause major structural damage, putting you and your family at risk and potentially costing thousands or tens of thousands of dollars in property damage.

No, it’s not legal for unlicensed individuals to conduct structural calculations for buildings or building repairs. Not only do licensing requirements prevent DIYers from tackling this project, but mistakes can also be extremely dangerous and put your property and anyone inside or near it at risk of severe injury or even death. You should always hire a licensed and certified local structural engineer to make structural calculations.
