"I had an urgent request to get a permit across the line and Pedro was on his A-game and helped me within hours. Very professional, well documented, etc. Other structural engineers I hired only gave me headaches. I'd use Pedro again any day. Thank you very much, and glad to be in business with you!"

"Tim was very professional, he was prompt in responding to messages. He showed up on the time for structural inspection and did thorough inspection. I highly recommend him considering my earlier experiences with other structural engineers, how they carry out their inspections and never give any definitive answers."

Offers commercial services

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.

"Parks Construction was very professional and affordable for renovating our subfloor structure in our crawlspace. Their team members were professional and courteous. Mr. Parks is honest and trustworthy in his consultations with access to engineers, materials, and structural plans. We will use them again for our future construction needs."

SunQest, Inc. started manufacturing and installing solar systems, sunrooms and spas 15 years ago. We cannot be undersold. Radiant floor heating came along as a good solar application and that led us into our current, very complete HVAC department; everything from simple heat pump service to integrated geothermal and solar powered radiant floor heating with chilled water cooling. We also service and install most types of swimming pools, spas and saunas. Energy conservation is always an important issue with any of our work. Our solar water heaters even qualify for a 35% state tax credit. Our geothermal systems save 30% over conventional heat pumps. Whether you need a simple service or a major addition, our work is thorough and professional.

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Yes. Foundation walls are always load-bearing.

Most lenders and homeowner’s insurance companies don’t mandate a structural engineer’s inspection, so in most cases, it’s not required. However, it’s a good idea to have one done anyway to ensure you know what you’re buying. You can use the report to carry out repairs after closing or even to negotiate the sale price before closing.

It's safe to assume that all exterior walls are load-bearing, or at least have load-bearing characteristics. Some older homes feature porches or bump-outs that don't rest on the home's foundation. However, they still must carry the weight of the roof section they support. Walls containing floor-to-ceiling glass or other non-structural elements must use post and beam configurations to meet load-bearing criteria.

No, beams are the primary load-bearers for flooring or roofing systems, and they distribute the weight of the structure to your foundational supports, while joists bear far less weight and distribute their loads to the beams. Beams are usually thicker and longer, and they have support posts or foundation walls beneath them for support.

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