"Connor from Stonewall Structural Engineering showed up promptly on time. He went under my 93-year-old house without hesitation to check out the foundation issues. Within two hours he walked me through all his findings in detail and gave me some suggestions. I received a detailed, sealed report in 4 days with pictures, and multiple ways to resolve my issues. I hope to never need a structural engineer again, but I'll definitely be using Stonewall if I need an inspection again."

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.

"This is the second time I have used Don. I am a property manager and have been searching for a good/honest contractor for the last 6 years and I have to say that I found one with Quality Solutions. We had an apartment get totally flooded from walls to floors and Don came and did the work and you could never tell there was anything wrong. He did amazing work not only was the tenant impressed but so was I. I highly recommend him for any job big or small that needs to be done!!"

"This was a major design project in our second home, with a deadline for our daughter's April wedding. Marva Williams, owner of DWOTC, worked with me from the very beginning (Oct 2016) to give our house a much needed upgrade to "Coastal Chic" without being overly cutesy-beachy. As this was a long distance management project for me, Marva became my onsite eyes and ears, regularly sending text and photo updates. Her attention to detail in supplying detailed quotes and samples, room by room and item by item idea book, follow-up discussions and revisions, and personal responsibility for the security of our house was always professional and friendly with complete dedication to the success of the project and our happiness with the result. Always open to my ideas, Marva's own design sense and years of experience captured the style I desired for our home, and she worked out every detail with me, persevering until I was satisfied with the plans. Work began in early January 2017, and as I was not present for the messy interior work involving painting, flooring and bathroom vanity construction, and furniture deliveries, Marva managed her work crews efficiently and arranged for a thorough commercial cleaning after they were finished. She accepted my online purchase shipments at her office and brought them to my house in her almost daily 20 mi (one-way)commute. I was so pleased when I made my first on-site visit, about 6 weeks into the project. Marva had placed the new furniture and accessories, used existing bedding to make up beds, hung some existing art work, included a surprise custom embroidered sofa pillow, and even added a bouquet of fresh flowers to welcome me to my beautiful home. During my visit we worked together to identify punch list items and make new choices for the master bedroom furniture (Marva readily agreed to take back the first selections which were too big for the space). Additionally she worked with her specialty painter to redo the finish of the kitchen tabletop (650 year old cypress she had sourced!) The wedding deadline was achieved and the result is lovely-- a calm, cool, and charmingly comfortable home that we can enjoy for more than just summertime. Marva prepared all revised quotes and payment schedules, emailing scanned invoices and outside vendor (plumbing, electrical) bills to me for payment. Her initial deposit and agreement was fair and concise; accounting of payments to her were accurate and timely. At final project completion, sign-off and payment, Marva presented me with a notebook with room-by-room paint chips, information for furnishing fabric care, and warranties. Extra paint cans were labeled and stored in plastic bins. A delightful woman to work with, Marva has an endearing personality and good sense of humor, which contribute to her positive attitude. Her willingness to work long-distance and her trustworthiness were essential to the success of this project. I HIGHLY recommend Marva Williams and Designing Women of the Carolinas."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

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.

Any issue that affects the structural integrity or soundness of a home is considered a structural issue. In addition to foundation cracks, other signs of structural issues include roof leaks, bowing walls, sloping floors, gaps around windows and doors, and more.

A 4-inch-thick concrete slab can support around 4,000 pounds per square foot if a contractor reinforces the slab with rebar, while that same slab without reinforcements will support closer to 1,000 pounds. For the purposes of a patio, 4 inches in thickness without reinforcement should suffice unless you’re installing heavy kitchen equipment or a hot tub on it. In those cases, reinforcing your slab and sticking with 4 inches of thickness should provide plenty of strength.

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.

Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.
