After 25 years of owning one of NH most trusted waterproofing companies my family moved back to MA 5 years ago. I opened a foundation repair business to continue doing what I enjoy and have years of experience. I will personally provide a free estimate for what is needed to repair issue and I'll be the person doing the repair. All work comes with a 10 year warranty. Whether you need a basic foundation crack repaired or you have a more serious issue we are able to do the repair. I am a certified Fortress Stabilization installer and use the finest products available. Remember I will be the the person doing the repair.

"Ed sealed a number of cracks in my basement walls. A couple were pretty awkward and had minor leaks afterwards but Ed promptly came back to resolve. Would definitely recommend and use again if necessary in the future."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

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.

No, it’s not legal for unlicensed individuals to conduct structural calculations for buildings or building repairs. Not only do licensing requirements prevent DIYers from tackling this project, but mistakes can also be extremely dangerous and put your property and anyone inside or near it at risk of severe injury or even death. You should always hire a licensed and certified local structural engineer to make structural calculations.

Signs of structural damage include foundation cracks, roof leaks, bouncy floors, crumbling concrete, and cracked or leaning chimneys. Structural damage can make itself apparent in various ways, and sometimes, there may not be obvious signs. Inspect your foundation and roof annually to stay ahead of potentially serious structural problems. 

No, beams are the primary load-bearers for flooring or roofing systems, and they distribute the weight of the structure to your foundational supports, while joists bear far less weight and distribute their loads to the beams. Beams are usually thicker and longer, and they have support posts or foundation walls beneath them for support.

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