Customers say: Super punctual

"Martin and Jake are the absolute best to work with. They were thorough, efficient, professional and so easy to work with for our basement structural work. They took time to explain what needed to be done, coordinated with different contractors (plumbing, electrical), and were able to complete our project on time while we were out of town for just a week(!!). I can't recommend Great Lakes Builders more - they were a pleasure to work with and we will absolutely be using them again for any future work we need. 5+ stars!"

"I wanted someone to look at some cracks in the slab in my crawlspace. I was concerned, however, if I brought a contractor over that I would be told everything was falling apart and that I needed to spend $$$. Luckily, structural engineers like this have no monetary incentive to push you to do unnecessary work. The owner came out, took a look, and said that my slab was not load bearing and the issues was only cosmetic. He also took a look at some other areas of the house I had concern on and addressed my other concerns. He gives you the option of either a written or verbal report. Since I had no issues in my inspection, A verbal report was completely satisfactory. (whats nice is that a verbal report is also cheaper).

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

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.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

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

Generally, you can tell if a home is bolted to the foundation by checking the foundation for plates. If you see that your foundational plates connect to wood or bolts protruding from them, this means that you have a bolted foundation. However, it's always wise to bring a home inspector in to confirm if your foundation is secure.

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.
