"I cannot praise the engineer enough. Salesmen from many foundation repair companies quoted us about $10,000 in pier installation, whereas after taking measurements for settling and analyzing cracks found we don't need ANY piers. Also, our polyjacking estimates were all thrown out as a result of the visit, because the garage floor was fine!!! Just needed to use some concrete sealant and could do that ourselves. In short, we saved about $15,000 on work that wasn't even needed. Save yourself the headache, and call this company. Very thorough, practical and will show you with measurements how your foundation is really doing. Don't rely on foundation repair salesmen to tell you!!!"

"I was playing around on HomeAdvisor looking for a structural engineer around 8PM and within a couple of minutes Dr. G called my phone. He was very professional and at the end of the conversation he texted me his information to contact his Administrator in the morning. I called Heather and had an appointment to meet with Dr G at he house that same day at 2PM. I arrived on time and he was already there looking at the outside of the foundation. He was able to answer all my questions and reassure me that the house would be a good purchase, but also recommended work that needed to be done most likely in the future. We had our letters from him written that same day and we were done with everything in less that hour. If you are buying a house and are concerned about the foundation, I highly recommend Dr. G. He works for the buyer and makes sure you know everything and every problem that might arise in the future with your new home purchase."

"Two years ago my wife and I noticed that our foundation was beginning to settle.  We had huge cracks in the dry-wall and our front door wasn't opening and closing properly. We decided to contact Advanced Foundation Repair and Replacement, owner Frank Matyiko.  He got a structural engineer to our house.  The engineer recommended that we needed twelve piers in order to fix our foundation.  the entire construction project went as planned.  Advance Foundation provided us with a transferable warranty in case we decided to sell our home. 
The overall experience was wonderful their crew was very professional and we would use them again and recommend them to anyone!!

"I cannot speak for the company as a whole (they are headquartered in St Louis), and I have yet to receive their official report (which is to come from their home office). But the engineer himself clearly knew his subject matter, was highly observant and even addressed my drainage issues (water management being his specialty), a tangential topic. I liked the man very much."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

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.

The costs depend on the type of wood, labor, roofing material, permits, and whether additional storage or enclosed walls are included.

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. 

Dormers must be able to bear the load of their own construction and the added window. The style of the dormer, however, will determine where the weight loads onto your home's structure. A gable dormer bears the weight on the side walls whereas a shed dormer bears it on the front walls.

First, most contractors will have a structural engineer create a report and plan for your project to ensure it’s safe to cut into the load-bearing wall. The contractor will then excavate around the wall, if necessary, measure the opening—allowing for additional space to fit and level the door, and then cut the doorway out. They will likely install a steel lintel as a header over the door for support. Once the doorway is cut out, they’ll demolish the concrete using sledge hammers and masonry chisels, clean up the surrounding concrete, and seal around the door with masonry mortar.
