"After a year of working with us, Marc designed the perfect home for our family. He spent significant time on site to get to know the space and spoke to us frequently to ensure his design met our hopes and dreams. His final design is visually stunning and maximizes space use in a way that reflects both the history of the home and modern preferences. His expertise in Chicago building code and city offices was instrumental in our project being approved quickly. He reviewed bids with us to ensure we selected a GC who could do the job and had competitive pricing. He regularly met and emailed with the GC and suppliers to address issues as they arose during the job so that all were resolved to our satisfaction. Throughout it all, he was just a nice guy to work with during a process that can be very stressful."

"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."

"Bill was able to come out within 4 days of my initial call. He was punctual and able to quickly identify the cracks as shrinkage and not any structural settling issues. He charges $400 for an inspection and $650 if you want a written report. We were fine with just a verbal since there were no problems. Pricey for 20minutes worth of work, but we're glad for the piece of mind. Everything went smooth."

"From concept and design to the finished product, Modern Home Remodeling were true professionals from start to finish. While I absolutely love our new kitchen from the look down to the last detail; my wife and I were most impressed with the Project Manager Tomasz. His communication, idea collaboration and commitment to excellence made the entire process a pleasure. One thing that stuck with me that he told me was "I treat my customers money like it was my own money" He won't just do something if it doesn't make sense. Tomasz will give you his honest feedback and also offers suggestions. I look forward to further projects with Modern Home Remodeling knowing that the work will be extraordinary, the price will be a value and that the project will be treated with exception. Thank you Modern Home Remodeling for all the hard work and a truly exceptional job. You are professionals, and treat your customers with the utmost respect, and those are all traits VERY hard to find these days."

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.

The costs depend on the type of wood, labor, roofing material, permits, and whether additional storage or enclosed walls are included.

The depth of any foundation style depends on your climate and how deep the frost line is, as building code requires that the footers of a foundation—which are built into a monolithic slab—sit at least a foot below the frost line. At the southern tip of Florida, for example, a monolithic slab foundation would only need to sit 12 inches under the soil at the widest parts. On some parts of the Canadian border, the frost line is 100 inches, which would mean a minimum of 112 inches, which is prohibitively deep for a monolithic slab.

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.

The early stages of building a house are harder than the later stages; laying the foundation and framing the house are two of the most challenging steps. However, it varies for everyone. Some people have difficulty installing HVAC, plumbing, and electricity, while others find it harder to plan the house and secure the necessary permits.
