"Just before the pandemic enveloped us all, I had a structural engineer in place for my cottage rebuild project. Because of his older age and such an uncertain time, he decided to retire. I was on the hunt for another structural engineer. Enter Aboud of AJA Engineering. Professional, knowledgeable, responsive, personable. He helped me to design the home of my dreams. He then went above and beyond by sharing me with names of contractors that he routinely works with. I was fortunate to select one of them who did amazing job on the rebuild. Along the way with varying circumstances encountered, Aboud was there onsite to suggest, advise, guide, and lend support. He is an individual that you want on your project and I give my highest recommendation!!"

"Was having a potential home inspected for structural integrity. Spoke to Bob on the phone a few times. Since the home’s basement primarily consisted of a giant crawl space, I was told Don would do the job. Ultimately, the day before the scheduled inspection, I couldn’t get ahold of Don. Bob said Don was “feeling sick,” so the job was off. Frustrating, but a blessing in disguise because we ended up going with Colonial Restorations (the home was built in the 1800s). Colonial Restorations, LLC is the “go-to” for older home inspections and repairs. Tom was amazing (his son Brad is soon to take over the business)! They were both prompt, professional, and thorough. Very pleased with their work and thorough report/estimate. Colonial Restorations, LLC PO Box 868 Fiskdale, MA 01518 508-735-9900"

"I highly recommend using Scott Curtice for any renovation project no matter how complex it is. We bought a house that was over a hundred years old that had not been renovated for decades. Starting from the planning stage, Scott was wonderful about redesigning the house in order to open up the space and bring it into a more modern look. He spent several sessions reworking his plan always taking into account our needs and desires. Once the actual renovation began, we ran into a number of complex structural issues with the house itself. No matter what obstacle came up, Scott and his team were able to find solutions. His team was efficient in their work and they were all always reliable. In fact, many of our neighbors were astounded that all subcontractors worked on the home daily and that they actually were busy the entire time they were at our house. In addition, the lines of communication between ourselves and Scott, as well as his subcontractors, were always open. They kept us abreast of the project's updates and always made suggestions for ways to improve the work for aesthetics and/or cost savings ideas. Scott’s work was beautiful and he and his crew paid attention to every detail. The majority of the house required a gut renovation and it came out exquisite. Even after the job was complete, he was always available for questions. I would highly recommend using them for any job you have."

"Pavel is an excellent structural engineer/designer who helped design a better solution to a build for a six unit back stairs/deck. His design gave each tenant a more private area to sit on the back deck. He designed the stairs to go up the middle, and not interfere with the private area that each tenant will have. He is easy to work with and he is timely in his response to any questions I had. I highly recommend Pavel."

"After an unusual situation arose at my home, I was concerned about the possibility of structural damage caused by drilling and new construction at an adjacent lot. After receiving a recommendation for Veitas Engineers from a trusted source, I called and scheduled an appointment. I am so thankful that I did. I continue to be impressed with the amount of time that the two engineers spent at my house, closely inspecting the exterior and interior. Within days, I received a 16-page detailed report which included drawings, photographs, recommendations, and action items. I was so pleased when I saw that the action items were categorized as structural and non-structural, that is, that the engineers included items beyond my actual structural concerns. I used the report when working with a contractor to follow up on the recommendations and action items. The contractor was impressed with the quality, clarity, and scope of the report. I am so happy that I chose Veitas Engineers!"

Structural Engineering FAQs, answered by experts

In Boston, combining structural engineering with upgrades like foundation repair, basement waterproofing, or insulation improvements can streamline your project. Coordinating these services minimizes disruptions, allows for bundled permits, and often leads to a more efficient timeline. For historic homes, addressing structural needs alongside restoration work ensures compliance and preserves property value, making the renovation process smoother and more cost-effective in the long run.

Helpful?

In Boston, homeowners often overlook soil testing, underestimate the impact of freeze-thaw cycles, or skip necessary permits. Hiring contractors unfamiliar with local climate or historic district requirements can cause compliance issues. Failing to address drainage, snow loads, or corrosion protection may lead to foundation problems or costly repairs. Careful planning and choosing experienced professionals help avoid these common pitfalls.

Helpful?

Completing structural engineering projects in Boston provides immediate benefits like enhanced safety, improved code compliance, and increased home value. Over time, you’ll see reduced maintenance needs, better energy efficiency, and stronger protection against moisture or weather damage. Investing in quality structural work also makes future renovations easier, as your home will be better prepared for upgrades such as load-bearing wall modifications or finished basements.

Helpful?

Before starting a structural engineering project in Boston, consult with local experts and arrange for soil analysis and a thorough property assessment. Gather all existing plans, check for zoning or historic restrictions, and secure required permits early. Plan for possible weather delays, especially in winter, and set aside a contingency budget. Clear communication with your team and proactive scheduling help ensure a smooth project from start to finish.

Helpful?

Boston’s unpredictable weather—harsh winters, heavy snow, and coastal storms—directly affects structural engineering projects. Deep foundations are essential to prevent frost heave, and roofs must be designed for significant snow loads. Salt air near the coast accelerates steel corrosion, so using corrosion-resistant materials is crucial. Scheduling work between spring and fall helps avoid weather-related delays and ensures safer, more efficient project completion.
