Building projects are rarely stress free. They can be more involved and complex than expected, often leading to confusion and frustration. We know. We've been there ourselves. We have houses and families. We've built additions for in-law apartments and removed bearing walls to make our kitchens bigger. We've had water in our basements, built and re-built decks, repaired retaining walls and and renovated old properties. We know what building projects can be like because we've done them too. Our goal is to provide our clients with step by step, start to finish engineering guidance that results in peace of mind and confidence in a job done right. We take great pride and care in working to understand the needs and expectations of our individual clients, and bringing our experience and expertise to bear on their specific, nuanced needs. Our reputation is based on service, safety and quality, regardless of how large or small the job. Call us today - we're here to help!

"Their service was excellent. They came out to our western mass region from the Boston area- unusual .....we usually get the cold shoulder from Boston. Even several local engineers turned us down. The structure is an 1885 church and a structural report was required from the local building department. They were very professional, quoted a price, made the trip and wrote up an encouraging and positive report. We have been fundraising since then to continue the restoration. Thank you Veritas!"

SolarFlair works with businesses and homeowners that are interested to reduce their utility bills and their carbon footprint by converting to solar power. We are a licensed and certified solar engineering and design firm with over 10 years of experience in the industry. We do not use subcontractors and have over 200 satisfied clients that are happy to share their SolarFlair experience.

"The original installation process went very smoothly, however,, A few years after the panels were installed, a leak developed at one of the punctures for the panel mounts. we first called back the roofer to see if the leak was not due to the solar mounts, but he confirmed that the leak was indeed right under one of the mounts. SolarFlair came to take a look and applied a product to the interior of the roof which did nothing to stop the leak, they came back and applied roof tar on the outside which again did not stop the leak. this process has been very frustrating for the lack of communication, the slowness and incomplete response to the issue. They've closed out the work each time they've done something before veryifying that the leak has been fixed (it still has not been fixed). The company had taken over 9 months from our inital call, and we still have a leaking roof. we have very little communication from SolarFlair as to what actions they have taken, and what next they could do. it seems clear that part of the roof needs to be replaced to fix the leak."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.

A freestanding brick wall that's only one brick thick can usually stand six to eight feet high. If you need a higher wall, it should be at least two bricks thick for adequate stability, and it might require a footing to support the added weight. Additionally, some areas have regulations and codes dictating how high a brick wall can be, so check with local code enforcers to ensure your proposed wall complies with any regulations.

Absolutely, as it ensures designs are viable and won’t compromise structural integrity.

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.

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.
