Customers say: Super punctual

"Great Lakes Builders saved my home! After extensively researching the issue, I was referred to Great Lakes by a colleague in the insurance industry. I contacted the firm, met with Martin and Mike and instantly felt confident in their ability to do the work. It was not an easy project, the home had to be raised and supported, a new foundation dug and poured. The foundation walls were replaced and the house was set back on the foundation. The home is 120 years old with all plaster walls. What amazed me was how carefully they worked and when it was finished, not one crack! They are true craftsmen and experts in this field. They are punctual, the work site was kept neat and clean and they kept me informed every step of the way. Most importantly, they are concerned with safety. They don’t take short cuts and their structural engineer was terrific. In an old home there are always projects. I am going to use them again for some foundation work on an addition that was done to the home in the 70’s. I highly recommend this company to handle foundation and structural issues with homes."

"Evolution design worked with me on designing and addition for a 100 and 5 year old house. We worked on the dimensions of the addition Plus the materials. Evolution understood the local zoning which was amazing that they knew that. We have not started construction. And evolution can help pull the permits and I'm considering them for that as well. All in all it was a long project but it was done efficiently, working with several of the staff an the departments."

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.

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

The standard thickness for an LVL beam is between 1.75 inches and 7 inches. However, you can order LVL beams in non-standard sizes as well. When you work with a contractor, they can source beams that are the appropriate size for your project for you after assessing your blueprints.

A split-level home is one that has several staggered floors connected by short staircases, while a split floor plan separates the primary bedroom from the rest of the bedrooms. Split floor plans are most often found in single-story homes, while split-level homes are always at least two stories.

Their expertise in identifying potential problems early and implementing durable solutions safeguards your home’s integrity.
