Welcome to APAC Engineering, Inc. It is our goal to provide structural engineering services to the residential community. We strive to bring knowledgeable and courteous service to homeowners, real estate agents, and homebuilders. Our mission is to provide excellent engineering quickly and at a fair price. There are several reasons for hiring a structural engineer to look at your home. First, you may have a crack in your foundation that you're concerned about. Next, a contractor might have proposed an expensive repair to your home stating that it was a structural issue. Finally, a home inspector might have noticed a structural defect in your home and recommended that a structural engineer look at it. There are many good reasons to hire an engineer but the biggest advantage to a homeowner is that the engineer does not perform the construction work. Therefore a structural engineer does not have the conflict of interest that a contractor would have when recommending work. On the contrary, it is our goal to reduce construction costs to save you money while a contractor wants to increase construction costs to improve his bottom line.

"Robert was thorough and knowledgable. Very helpful! We would definitely call on him again. A great guy and a great job!"

"We needed a structural engineer to inspect the foundation of a home that we are purchasing and were recommended to contact Kemp. We are so glad that we did. Greg provided first class service. He was thorough and took the time to explain each step that he was taking, the purpose behind it, the potential results and what each could mean, and finally the actual results. He also took the time to educate us on some of the basic indicators of good and deficient or damaged home foundations. He was very personable and is great at making complex information simple enough for novices to understand. He also provided the inspection report almost immediately. We highly recommend Greg and his company’s services."

"Had a 5 foot long crack in my poured-concrete basement wall. It was not leaking, but I wanted to have it sealed regardless. Alek came on a Saturday, gave me his estimate, and then repaired the wall. He was very forthcoming by explaining that the repair was not absolutely necessary if there was no leakage, but I wanted it sealed anyway.

"Had a great experience with Chris Kuper at Basement Detective! My basement flooded from non-stop storms and I needed a sump pump installed along with complete renovation of my basement. They were very competitive in pricing and outstanding in results. Chris even helped coordinate with the contractor doing my basement renovation after the sump was installed to make sure none of the drainage was disturbed by the new work being done. I have since weathered at least 3 large storms and can hear the sump working as needed. Very happy with the results!"

Levelift Systems was founded in 1991 by Mr. Paul Mauer. Over the next twenty-three years, Mr. Mauer developed a highly respected specialty foundation contracting company, serving the State of Maryland. Unfortunately, Mr. Mauer died tragically in 2014. Levelift Foundations, LLC was formed as a means of keeping the core of Levelift Systems together and continuing to be a leading installer and foundation designer, for the CHANCE helical pier system, in the state of Maryland. Our certified helical pier installers are trained and certified by CHANCE® and we offer both residential and commercial foundation solutions in Maryland and the surrounding areas.

"Workman took three days to shore up the foundation of this very old garage. He was polite, and did a nice job. Estimates from several providers were all over the map, since some recommended extensive work involving the use of helical piers, and installation of a new concrete block foundation. I went with more conservative repair.. It looks fine, and I hope I made the right decision."

"No other way to put it. Install went fine. When I call, email, text for warranty service… run around at every turn. They say they will schedule right away for evaluation…didn’t happen. They say they will get it replaced right away…hasn’t happened. Regret after the sale. Xavier D and Alexis C are my two “contacts”. Unacceptable. Standing by for some ridiculous message about being sorry for the experience and to call some number that will fail to get a response. Also filing a BBB complaint."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

In Frederick, the success of structural engineering projects depends on adapting designs for the area’s freeze-thaw cycles, choosing moisture-resistant materials, and ensuring effective drainage to prevent foundation issues. Attention to local soil composition, especially clay-heavy areas, and strict adherence to MD building codes are essential. Regular inspections and proactive maintenance also help extend the life of structural work in Frederick’s variable climate.

Helpful?

After structural work in Frederick, schedule a final inspection to confirm all repairs meet local standards. Keep detailed records of the work, monitor for new cracks or moisture, and test sump pumps or drainage systems after storms. Annual checkups, especially before winter, are recommended to catch any shifting or water intrusion early and maintain the long-term stability of your home.

Helpful?

In Frederick, immediate action is needed if you notice significant foundation cracks, bowing walls, or water seepage, as these can worsen quickly with seasonal changes. Less urgent issues, like minor drywall cracks or slight settling, can be monitored but should be addressed before winter. Always factor in the time required for permit approvals and plan ahead to avoid delays during Frederick’s busy construction seasons.

Helpful?

In Frederick, recurring cracks, uneven settling, or persistent basement dampness after repairs suggest previous work may not have addressed the root cause. If you notice new structural damage in adjacent areas or repairs failing after a freeze-thaw cycle, it’s a sign the original solution wasn’t suitable for local soil or climate. Reassessing with a qualified professional ensures your home remains safe and stable.

Helpful?

In Frederick, watch for hairline cracks that widen, uneven floors, or doors that suddenly stick, especially after heavy rain or snowmelt. Efflorescence on basement walls, musty odors, or shifting porch steps can signal underlying foundation problems. If you see these early warning signs, prompt attention can help you avoid extensive repairs and protect your home’s structural integrity.
