"Highly Recommend! I’m a builder, but I didn’t fully understand all the requirements for my home addition projects. Thankfully, I found Jin and he made everything so much easier. They helped with all the permitting for the garage port, front porch, and fence, navigating the tricky city rules I wasn’t familiar with. Jin made it so much easier. He created the plans required for permitting and handled all the paperwork and tricky regulations, while always kept us in the loop. What could’ve been a stressful process ended up being pretty smooth thanks to their expertise. We’re really happy with how everything turned out, and I’m so glad we had them in our corner. If you need help with an architect Jin will help you out!"

"Carlos was very professional when he came to do the site visit. We went over details over my small project. He submitted his proposal the next day. Only reason I didn t select him was his price was almost triple the amount of the other five proposals I received, for the same work. Now only time will tell if it was the correct decision, but based on how small my job is, I felt it wasn t worth the price proposed. I think his price is more for commercial projects. Good luck!"

"Kyle Ikeda Recommendation Kyle has been a very pleasant and personable craftsman to work with. The first time he came to the house to do an estimate he asked whether he needed to wear a mask or not and we told him we preferred he wear a mask when speaking with us. He did as we asked. He is very considerate and accommodating. He never forces his preferences on you. He makes expert and excellent professional and design suggestions but ALWAYS leaves the decisions to the home owner. During the estimating process he went over in detail the design options available to us, Making sure we understood the cost scale as he presented each option based on the current structure of the bathroom and its present features that is appealing and we should consider keeping. He was also very honest about whether certain ADA compliant features need to be adhered to. He also discussed with us the plusses and minuses of safety features to consider given our age. We decided on two design options based on ours and his valuable input and asked him to quote both options. He produced quotes for both options within two weeks. He then followed his quotes with a face to face meeting discussing in detail what was and was not included in each quote. Once we decided on which option to go ahead with, we then went into more detail on the specific hardware and tile to be selected. His extensive portfolio of previous remodels helped us greatly in choosing the hardware, size, color and tile pattern options to possibly use. At this stage Kyleʻs extensive experience and master craftsman experience was invaluable. During the remodeling process he reviewed daily what was done and what he was planning to do the next day. What we also appreciated about Kyle is that he is a very organized and neat professional, he cleans up at the end of each day. If Kyle sees an issue in the original design due to the tiles or hardware we chose or modifications he needed to make, in order to make the overall design look more appealing he will stop, consult with us before implementing any changes. His artistic skills come into play here and again his suggestions led us to make the whole project look so much better than we had envisioned. One time we noticed a bad variation in the tiles from the same box he had already set. He had just left the house 15 minutes ago and We called him about it. He turned around and came immediately back to the house and removed the offending tiles and reset it with tiles that matched. This illustrates how accommodating he is and how he will go out of his way to please the homeowners. In summary we very very highly recommend Kyle Ikeda as a master bathroom remodeler. He has excellent design and artistic skills and his recommendations based on his extensive experience and portfolio are right on. His communication skills are excellent and he involves the homeowners in all aspects of the remodel from the design phase to the final remodeling phase. The quality of his work is exquisite. The tile work is immaculate and the installation of our unique shower system was completed without a hitch. The pan was installed perfectly with no pooling and the water all flows to the drain. All the plumbing, electrical, carpentry, and tile work was done by a single person, Kyle Ikeda himself. No subcontractors are involved to cause scheduling holdups. Our renovation was completed on time in 3 weeks total, from tear down to completion. If you want a master remodeler with all the skills needed to do your perfect remodeling job, hire Kyle Ikeda."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Yes, an LVL beam is more affordable than the cost of a steel I-beam, totaling between $50 and $200 per linear foot as opposed to the $100 to $400 per linear foot you’d pay for a steel I-beam. Not only is the wood material more affordable than steel, but it’s also more similar to traditional wooden beams and doesn’t require as much retrofitting to connect joists.

If you intend to do the majority of the work yourself, you can pay to hire an architect or a structural engineer to ensure your home remains structurally sound. They can help with the planning to make sure everything is up to code and safe for your family. On the other hand, if you’re not sure your home will be completely safe when you’ve completed the project, let a pro do the job.

The essential difference between an architect and an engineer is that architects typically focus more on the aesthetic design of buildings, although not without consideration for the structural integrity of the building. Engineers focus more on the structural, technical, and practical aspects of whether and how an architectural design can be built as drawn. You may need to hire both types of professionals if you’re designing and building a new home.

A structural engineer’s report is almost always worth it, as it can help you avoid buying or overpaying for a home with structural issues. The most important thing the report does for you is provide peace of mind that you won’t have to pay thousands of dollars for structural repairs right after closing on a property.

You need to hire a structural engineer when building or modifying any component with a structural load in your home. Common situations where you would need a structural engineer include home inspections when buying or selling a home, investigating possible issues with your foundation, beams, load-bearing walls, or chimneys, breaking ground on a new home or structure on your property, and renovating an old part of your home that could threaten any structural integrity. Home additions and bump-outs also require an engineer.
