"Jeremy was a pleasure to work with. He designed a complicated deck renovation for us that included fire places and lots of added weight. He was available to the craftsmen during the whole process and made numerous adjustments as needed. I would recommend Jeremy and Ground to Structure without hesitation."

I am a licensed Professional Engineer providing structural engineering services for residential and small commercial projects. I work with homeowners, contractors, and design professionals to help move projects through the permit process by providing structural calculations, drawings, evaluations, and engineering letters as needed.\n\nIn-person structural inspections are available in Maryland, DC, and Northern Virginia. Remote structural consulting is available in Delaware and North Carolina.\n\nTypical projects include load-bearing wall removal, beam and header sizing, additions, decks, foundation concerns, and framing evaluations. My goal is to provide practical, code-compliant structural solutions that are clear, efficient, and tailored to the project.

"We called Legacy once again after using them in the past.  What great people they are.  We met and covered all the details, and they even offered us advice on how to do a few things we had not thought of and how to do them more economically.  That's what we have always liked about these folks.  They didn't try to sell us on anything.....they educated us and never made us feel like we were dumb.  
Even though they had done a great job for us in the past, we did shop around a little and got a few other estimates just to be sure we were going to get what we paid for.  Most of the contractors we called never called us back, and those that did call back could never seem to keep the appointment.  So, in the end we settled (once again) on Legacy.  I can honestly say that the professionalism, honesty, and care they took with our home was first rate.
We knew the job we wanted done would not be easy from a structural point of view, but after much research and input Legacy came up with a plan that not only worked, but is stunning.  The views they created for us is breathtaking.  The attention to every design detail was impeccable and the folks that worked on our job are simply artists.  
We are honored to write a review for Legacy.  We will call them time and again as our needs change.

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Foundation cracks that are 1/8 inch wide or less, aren’t uneven across the gap, and don’t continue widening over time are usually just normal settling cracks and don’t suggest structural issues. Horizontal cracks and stair-step cracks on foundation walls, any cracks that continue widening, are wider than 1/8 inch, or where one side juts out beyond the other, are often indicative of structural damage.

Yes. Foundation walls are always load-bearing.

Indications include cracks in walls, uneven floors, and sticking doors or windows that suggest foundation movements.

It is not recommended to cut or drill into LVL (laminated veneer lumber) beams. As major structural components of a home, their composite structure can be compromised by alterations, which can weaken them and lead to cracking over time. If you must make modifications to an LVL beam, it is crucial to consult a structural engineer or general contractor first. A professional can advise on whether it's safe and provide specifics on the appropriate bit size, depth, and directionality for any necessary drilling.

Building codes for spiral staircases will vary by your location. Most local codes will specify minimum tread width, riser height, handrail requirements, and headroom. These standards help ensure safety and accessibility for all users. Always check local codes before you begin the installation to ensure compliance and avoid costly modifications or fines.
