"Mr. Crockett engineered a house for me in Slidell, Louisiana: 1600 sqft and raised 10' off the ground in a coastal flood zone. He seemed to be the only local engineer who could be bothered with such a small project. His plans passed St. Tammany inspection. My only issue with him was related to our communication during the revision process of the plans. Ultimately he provided everything I wanted. I would definitely use his services again and recommend him."

"Choosing Rose de Nola for our room addition and bath remodel was the best decision we've ever made concerning our home. We got their name from a friend who had used them to build a loft on their garage. Our project started by converting two bedrooms to a second master suite with a bathroom and renovating an existing bathroom. . We weren't quite sure what we wanted. We had limited space and we needed someone who could "think outside the box." We met with several other contractors, but when Jordan shared his vision for our project, we knew we had truly found someone with a gift. We were amazed with the attention to detail, his ability to finish on time, and his willingness to stay within our budget. They attended to our project as if they were working on their home. The designer was especially concerned with making the new addition fit architecturally with the pre-existing 15 year old structure. During the 10 month project, our project manager was either on site or just a phone call away. You could tell that he had put tremendous effort into building relationships with sub-contractors who could meet his expectations. It's been two years since our project was finished. I can still pick up the phone and call Jordan for anything. Within two rings, he is ready to personally handle a warranty issue or stop by to tighten the hinges on a door. That's why I'm always happy to provide a review for them. We've never had that kind of service and care from anyone we've worked with. Someday, I'm going to buy a piece of land and build a brand new home. Rose de Nola will handle everything when that happens."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

A structural engineer's report provides a professional assessment of a property's structural condition. It typically includes an evaluation of the foundation, key structural elements like roof trusses, floor joists, studs, beams, and rafters. The report will also contain a detailed description of the engineer's findings, often supported by photographs, and provide recommendations to correct any identified issues. Depending on the scope of the inspection, it might also include an assessment of property drainage, potential issues from environmental conditions like extreme weather or tree placement, and an estimated time and cost for any recommended repairs.

Structural engineers typically conduct inspections during a home sale or renovation, looking for signs of structural damage in various structures throughout the building, such as load-bearing walls, joists, beams, roofing trusses, foundations, and chimneys. Some of the warning signs that structural engineers check for include:

  • Dry rot

  • Infestation

  • Shifting or cracking foundations

  • Erosion

  • Water damage

  • Sagging, shifting, or damaged walls, ceilings, or roofing support

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

Structural engineers draw structural plans, which include detailed drawings of the structural components of a home only. Complete house plans will require additional work from an architect or draftsperson, whose drawings will take the structural drawings into account. They’ll also include more details about the finishing materials and layout of a home, including everything from roofing and flooring materials to the position of furniture, light fixtures, switches, and plumbing fixtures.

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.
