Recent Structural Engineering Reviews in Marietta
- Falcone Crawl Space & Structural RepairRonnie Watkins arrived on time for the appointment. He inspected all areas of concern in detail and advised that the house is structurally sound. He told me what to look for in future settling and how to address cosmetic issues. I am very pleased with the professionalism and helpfullness provided.
- Falcone Crawl Space & Structural RepairI truly appreciate their honesty. It is great to know that I can save some money by hiring a different service. I would absolutely use them in the future. They were extremely professional, polite and quick. Thank you.
- Falcone Crawl Space & Structural RepairThey replaced some rotted subfloor that was beneath a bathroom. They did it from the crawlspace, so had to cut and then re-install joists as part of the process. My reason for doing it was because when we bought the house the home inspector said it should be done so that the toilet would have a secure attachment point. The install went pretty good, and they had a guy come a few days later to check the work. However, I realized once I had a plumber come to install a new toilet that they did not install subfloor right up to the toilet sewer pipe, but had a left a large gap there. I was disappointed that it was not correct for toilet installation since that was the whole reason I got it done, but they sent somebody else out and resolved it and it seems to be good now. I would recommend this company, everybody I've dealt with has been nice and they seem to stand behind their work
- Engineered Solutions of GeorgiaTeam was polite & professional. ESOG got us in earlier than anticipated & the results are great.
- Southern ContractingWonderful! The rotten wood was discovered during the demolition for two bathroom remodels. Once discovered the bath remodeling contractor was not equipped to repair the underlying structural damage. A local engineer highly recommended Jeff Hall and Southern Contracting, who promptly came out to assess the extent of the damage that had likely been there for decades hidden behind the walls that were now exposed. He designed a rebuild of the bathroom stack (1st & 2nd floor) to include wall plates, flooring and ceiling structures. He assigned the construction work to a very experienced superintendent, Jeff who has been with the company for 7-years. He came with a crew of three men (Dev, Hunter and Andy). First and foremost, they did a great job! The structure is now stronger than when the property was built in 1929. Plus they were all very polite and very considerate of us as they performed the work. They put paper down on the floors to minimize the mess as they came in and out and also cleaned up well afterwards. It was a really good experience from the first call to their office all the way to the finish. I would highly recommend Southern Contracting
- Engineered Solutions of GeorgiaEveryone was professional from the estimator to the workers who pumped the concrete. My worry was the heating /air conditioning ducts also in the slab(floor). They monitored the ductwork with cameras during the operation to ensure concrete did not ooze into the ductwork. I was a nervous Nelly during the procedure and the guys were so professional and reassuring. Great job and no more rats
- American Crawlspace SolutionsThe company's field supervisor listened to my needs, made recommendations, worked out a plan, provided a quote and scheduled the work. All went very well.
- Engineered Solutions of GeorgiaAs a home owner of 12 years, having slowly watched the front porch settle into the ground due to the original builders having placed the foundation on back fill, previous estimates of rebuilding were cost prohibitive and made little sense. Once we engaged this company, they had a best solution, to provide galvanized helical piers to shore up the porch and prevent any more settling. The job was done in less than a day, only two holes were dug to allow for the shores, they went 38 and 42 FT to solid substrate and I suspect the rest of the house will settle well before the porch ever does. They jacked it nearly back into place, leaving me just a small amount of rock work and concrete ( which they offered to do but we can handle it) . Allen White?s estimates were spot on, contracts very business like, and the crew that Oscar brought in were pleasant , skilled and left the front porch and area clean and looking as good as or better than they found it. Highly recommended
- Engineered Solutions of GeorgiaHe arrived on time. I showed him the crack in my foundation. He measure the slope of my floor and told me I had a slight slope but not anything outside of normal. He said he was looking for a different slope on each side of the crack which would have indicated a structural problem. We then went outside to see if the crack was transferring through to the outside. It wasn't. He suggested I put crack repair tape on the crack prior to tiling in order to decouple the area from the tile to allow for expansion and contraction. I asked him if he was an overall structural engineer or if he just looks at concrete. He said he looks at all structural elements, so I asked him if he could tell me if certain walls in my kitchen were load bearing. He crawled up in my attic and was able to determine they weren't load bearing
- Engineered Solutions of GeorgiaWe had some problems with our foundation due to the house settling and they had to put in concrete pilings and make sure the house was stable and the work was guaranteed for 50 or 75 years. It was major structural home repair, stabilization work. They were here for several days. They were clean, professional, hard working. They did a good job. IT was expensive, but that kind of job is expensive.I would say it was a fair price. I would recommend them. I think they did a great job, I feel secure. They did everything they said they would do

"I called Georgia Drainage Specialists for a poor draining and standing water area beside a retaining wall / storage shed location that was always a muddy mess. Jarod came out quickly to look at the project. He provided a solution to my problem right away and even made some other suggestions to help move water away from the downspouts as part of the solution. Quote and work was scheduled quickly. The end result is awesome. After this weekend’s torrential rain I have no standing water or washout like I did in the past. I will definitely be hiring GDS for another project on my list very soon.

"P.K. Masonry arrived at my home on three different days on time, ready and willing to start the work. I was impressed how carefully he measured and drew out the plans for the fireplace. On my fireplace install PK was always concerned with what I was asking for, and listened to what I had to say. We didn't always agree, but he showed great patience dealing with me who knows nothing about what it takes to build a fireplace. I love my new fireplace that he built and will enjoy owning it for years to come. I definitely would hire PK again and have a job for him, planned for the future.
