"Hiring Kennon was a great decision and I highly recommend him. I was in a jam and needed someone to come out quickly to my house and perform a structural engineering report. Kennon came out the next day. He was very thorough, answered all my questions, and most important, understood the time urgency. I had the report the next day. I had previously hired another engineer who took two weeks to do the same type of report and it was nowhere near as coherent as Kennon's. I would highly recommend Kennon for structural engineering needs."

"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

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

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

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

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

In many areas, advice from a structural engineer or an architect will be required by your building department before you can remove a wall, but even if it’s not necessary, it’s a good idea. Accidentally removing a load-bearing wall—even if a general contractor advises that it’s safe—can cause major structural damage, putting you and your family at risk and potentially costing thousands or tens of thousands of dollars in property damage.
