"Jeremy was great to work with and very detailed and professional with his review of my homeâ s structure as well as the report he provided. Based on his findings I did have work done on my 62 year old home foundation to hopefully insure I get another 62. Thank you Jeremy!"

"Tony showed up five minutes early and I immediately started throwing my perception of contractors out of the window.  Tony took me through every aspect of the house giving me ideas of what I should do, what I shouldn't do, costs of each project and how to save money throughout the process.  You know when you're buying a product and the salesmen is going to answer every one of your questions in the way that will cause you to spend more money?? I didn't get that perception at all with Tony.  He was honest, even if it could possibly be a detriment to gaining him business.  He went over his credentials, experiences and history with older houses.  I explained to him how safety in regards to possible lead paint and asbestos were my priority as I will be living in the house and he outlined everything he would do if it was his own personal residence.  The thing I like about Structures By Design (and they should use this in their marketing) is that they really make you feel, and judging by their reviews, they actually do, treat any project as if they were doing it to their own homes. 
Reasons why I will choose Tony first for all work:
-He has a ton of expierence in the Buena Vista area with these older houses, I don't think there is anyone more qualified around here in regards to working with homes built in this part of the state.
-He is the ONLY contractor I've encountered that doesn't answer questions you ask for their benefit, that honesty is unprecedented in this type of business.
-Judging from the quality of their work on the internet, Angies List and articles I've read, their work is all about quality with price effectiveness thrown in there.  Long story short, it sounds like you get a lot of BANG for your buck.
I highly encourage anyone that needs some type of renovation done to their home to consult Tony before making any decisions, but that's just if you want it done right.

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

The standard thickness for an LVL beam is between 1.75 inches and 7 inches. However, you can order LVL beams in non-standard sizes as well. When you work with a contractor, they can source beams that are the appropriate size for your project for you after assessing your blueprints.

The process of hiring a structural engineer starts by finding reliable professionals in your area and comparing quotes from at least three of them. From there, you can narrow down your selection by asking some leading questions:

  • Do you have experience working in my specific area?

  • Do you have professional indemnity insurance?

  • What will your structural report cover?

  • Do you charge a flat fee for a structural report or by the hour?

  • How long have you been in business?

  • Do you have a list of customer references?

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 essential difference between an architect and an engineer is that architects typically focus more on the aesthetic design of buildings, although not without consideration for the structural integrity of the building. Engineers focus more on the structural, technical, and practical aspects of whether and how an architectural design can be built as drawn. You may need to hire both types of professionals if you’re designing and building a new home.

All foundations have footers, including monolithic slabs. In some cases, the foundation itself acts as the footer, as in the case of a floating slab and a monolithic slab. With a monolithic slab, the footers—which are just the bottom-most portion of the foundation that distributes loads down to stable soil—are a part of the main slab and are constructed with a single pour.
