"Excellent. This experience was the best I have had hiring outside help. After it was installed, I had some concerns and asked Aaron to come by. He came over on a Friday evening and to my surprise, agreed and quickly went above and beyond to remedy the situation. He was understanding and agreed with my concerns. Later I was worried about a sound I was hearing coming from the sump pump. He came up on a Sunday and turned out it was my old pump (not the new one they had installed) that was making the noise. He removed it and clearly explained why it was making the noise. The perimeter drain, pump, and dry well that they installed have all worked great since the installation, which was nearly 9 months ago now. It was very clear making sure a job was completed well and with integrity was important to him. It was comforting to know I was working with a company who valued customer service and doing a job well. Their prices were more reasonable than the 3 other companies I had estimates from. I would definitely use them if needed in the future."

"I did not do promotion through Angie's List because I had no idea what worked I needed done before they came out and wrote the estimate but I did select them through their ratings on this site.  They took care of the problem and the new home owner's have a guarantee so no complaints there.  The original time estimate to get to the job was a week and a half to two weeks.  I told them I had about two weeks to closing (work was done as a result of inspection after home sale and I committed to getting it done).  After two weeks I had not heard from them so I called to see when it could be done.  I told them it was now or never as I would have to write a check at closing to the new home owners in lieu of the work being done if it could not be done by closing.  I will give them a break as it was a period of heavy rain and emergency situations so I know they were swamped (pun intended).  They did get the work done for e.  When the work was estimated it was $450 for each crack.  I didn't know how to judge the price so I asked how many people it would take and how long would it take.  I was told it would take two people most of a day or three people for half a day if I needed it done in less time for the day. So the price seemed reasonable.  As it turned out - one guy came out and completed the work in less than five hours.  He did a great job and was very courteous so no complaints with that just now the price seems high considering the labor involved.  I had paid $40 for the estimate which was included in the $900 so you got to figure that time too but still seems high to me.

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.

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.

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.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

Costs depend on unit complexity, labor, wall mounting needs, and additional accessories like floating shelves.
