Customers say: Quality work

"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"

"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!"

"Dana was great to work with. And his sub-contractors were great as well. He built our house on budget and on time. Two big factors for me. Made suggestions when asked and most of the time we used his suggestions. Very knowledgeable. I can go on and on. Great company."

"From the first contact until the final payment everything about my experience with NE Renovations was EXEMPLARY.  I have lived in different states and different countries where I have had reason to employ contractors over the years, and I can say, without a doubt, that NE Renovations are SUPERIOR in every department.  Bill, Kenny, Mark and Anthony were COURTEOUS, EFFICIENT, SKILLED CRAFTSMEN; unobtrusive while simultaneously involving me, in as much as I wanted to be involved, each step of the way; no task was too trivial or too difficult, even jobs that were challenging i.e. finding extremely hard to find no longer manufactured parts was approached and attended to with SUCCESS, ENTHUSIASM and a POSITIVE attitude.  Every job was undertaken with a SMILE and PROFESSIONALISM.  Richard consistently communicated via email and telephone throughout in a PLEASANT and PROMPT manner. Mark and Anthony removed old appliances and some hard to get rid of junk in my garage at NO EXTRA COST.  Kenny worked METHODICALLY, PROFESSIONALLY and so  QUIETLY I would forget he was there, and Bill, what a gem ! - A MASTER CRAFTSMAN who can turn his hand to any job, who begins and ends his day with a smile and a kind word.THE FINAL COST WAS AS ESTIMATED DESPITE THAT I ADDD QUITE A FEW JOBS ALONG THE WAY - AT NO EXTRA COST! The work was done in a timely manner and for the first time in my experience with contractors it was an absolute pleasure to greet this team of craftsmen each morning at 8am. I am an extremely happy customer and would highly recommend NE Renovations. The result of their efforts is apparent in my now BEAUTIFULLY and PROFESSIONALLY renovated home."

"We started with a handyman company, but when the job proved too much for his level of expertise, we had him just tear down the current porch and turned to a real construction company to do the rebuild.  Their recommendation that we hire a civil engineer to design the mechanics of the buttressing work was their best advice.  We are now confident that this house will last for more generations.

"The contractors quickly responded to our inquiry. And the leading engineer is very experienced. She walked through the house with us listened carefully of our concerns. She came up with repair solutions right at the spot and discussed with us all the options for each solution. And later she gave us a price well within our budget. All works were done within three weeks from the first walk through. The lead engineer kept us updated about the working progress almost daily.  She replied to our questions even during the weekends. So overall, it is job well done!"

"They were prompt and responsive. The technician came out to see the crack in our basement wall, explained to me how to remove more sheetrock so he could do the job, and made an appointment to do the repair. He was exactly on time for both the estimate and the repair. Once the repair was complete, he gave me tips on repairing the sheetrock. He also gave me the discount on my coupon even though it had expired."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

You need to hire a structural engineer when building or modifying any component with a structural load in your home. Common situations where you would need a structural engineer include home inspections when buying or selling a home, investigating possible issues with your foundation, beams, load-bearing walls, or chimneys, breaking ground on a new home or structure on your property, and renovating an old part of your home that could threaten any structural integrity. Home additions and bump-outs also require an engineer.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

Many horizontal cracks in home foundations result from water and soil pressure from outside of the building or from a footing that is shifting. Under those circumstances, horizontal cracks are a structural problem that requires repair before they become worse and more difficult to fix. However, in very specific cases, thin horizontal cracks may simply be a cosmetic blemish due to concrete shrinkage.

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.
