"I had a great experience working with Omid Gharavi of OGV Structural Engineering for structural engineering permit services for my home in Baltimore. He was knowledgeable, professional, and easy to work with. The drawings he prepared and stamped, along with the engineering letter, were approved by the county without issue, allowing me to move forward with my home project. I truly appreciate his expertise and would highly recommend his services."

"My experience with Kapital Drafting has been nothing short of exceptional. From start to finish, the entire process of designing and executing our home addition, deck, and patio was smooth, efficient, and enjoyable. Gary, the company's owner, is a consummate professional who made every step of the way feel like a breeze. From the moment we first approached Kapital Drafting, Gary took the time to understand our vision and goals for the project. He then expertly translated those ideas into detailed drawings and 3D renderings, which truly brought our ideas to life. It was evident that Gary's expertise in architecture and design was second to none, as the quality of his work was remarkable. The process of obtaining county approval for the project can often be daunting, but with Gary's help, drawings were approved without any issues. This was a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and compliance with building codes that Gary and his team adhere to. Throughout the construction phase, Gary maintained excellent communication with both us and our contractors. He consistently addressed any concerns that arose and offered valuable suggestions to ensure the best possible outcome. His collaborative approach allowed us to work together seamlessly, resulting in a finished product that exceeded our expectations. The final result of our home addition, deck, and patio is stunning. It has transformed our outdoor living space into an oasis that our family is enjoying daily and will continue to do for years to come. Kapital Drafting's combination of exceptional design skills, customer service, and a keen understanding of the building process made our experience an unforgettable one. In summary, we wholeheartedly recommend Kapital Drafting for anyone seeking architectural services for their home improvement projects. Our experience with Gary and his team was truly excellent, and we have no doubt that they will deliver the same level of satisfaction to future clients."

"They were excellent. They quickly made a draft that only needed 3 minor adjustments. The final product was exactly what I needed. They referred me to a structural engineer for review. The whole process took half of the time that they initially estimated. I would definitely use them again."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

It depends on the bank and the extent of the issue. Some banks will lend against homes with minor foundation damage, but most won’t if the issue is structural since the home acts as collateral for the mortgage. Banks that offer renovation loans might still finance a home with structural problems. More minor issues like settling cracks and intermittent problems with humidity are unlikely to stop a bank from financing.

A structural engineer's report provides a professional assessment of a property's structural condition. It typically includes an evaluation of the foundation, key structural elements like roof trusses, floor joists, studs, beams, and rafters. The report will also contain a detailed description of the engineer's findings, often supported by photographs, and provide recommendations to correct any identified issues. Depending on the scope of the inspection, it might also include an assessment of property drainage, potential issues from environmental conditions like extreme weather or tree placement, and an estimated time and cost for any recommended repairs.

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

Structural engineers typically conduct inspections during a home sale or renovation, looking for signs of structural damage in various structures throughout the building, such as load-bearing walls, joists, beams, roofing trusses, foundations, and chimneys. Some of the warning signs that structural engineers check for include:

  • Dry rot

  • Infestation

  • Shifting or cracking foundations

  • Erosion

  • Water damage

  • Sagging, shifting, or damaged walls, ceilings, or roofing support
