Customers say: Quick response

"We hired Mr. Jeffrey Moss to inspect the foundation of a house we were looking to buy. He responded to my inquiry right away, and I was able to schedule with him very quickly as well. He was extremely professional and knowledgeable. He showed up early, was very thorough, and extremely likeable. The report came back within days, and his prices are better than the other structural engineers I had spoken to that weren't even rated on this site! I would highly, highly recommend him!"

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.

"They were excellent. They quickly made a draft that only needed 3 minor adjustments. The final product was exactly what I needed. They referred me to a structural engineer for review. The whole process took half of the time that they initially estimated. I would definitely use them again."

I am an effective, pragmatic, results-oriented, customer-service award-winning licensed senior architect and engineer with almost 30 years of design, construction and development experience. I offer my expertise of having designed almost 500 projects over that time, including over 300 custom homes, as well as having been a senior property inspector and president of 3 architecture firms. \n\nI specialize in affordable housing and historic buildings and I have assembled a team of senior freelance engineers and drafters that are experienced with large multi-family, retail, hospitality and custom residential projects. I work remotely from my home in Baja California and my drafters are in the Philippines, so my team can offer you the same quality of work that you would get from a traditional firm for a fraction of the price. \n\nMost importantly, I strongly believe in quality, honesty and teamwork. Find out why I'm a top-rated architect here and previously on Angie's List, Yelp and UpWork!

"My experience with Impact Home Solutions was exceptional. They took my design and turned it into a reality that was beyond my expectations. They stayed within my budget, offered suggestions when asked and gave me a deck that I will not one spend many happy hours on in the future but will increase the value of my home. They were careful of my other plantings and disturbed only what was necessary to do the job. I already have other ideas and plan to use Impact Home Solutions to make them a reality."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

A construction manager is particularly useful in the case of a large-scale build with custom design elements, so it’s usually worth it to hire one. They can help manage your budget, maintain quality control, oversee timelines, and navigate unexpected hurdles. While construction managers are pricey, they can actually save money in the long run by identifying cost-saving opportunities and ensuring the project stays within budget.

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.

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.

The average cost to hire a structural engineer is about $550, with prices generally ranging from $200 to $1,500. Structural engineers may charge a flat rate, by the project, by square footage, or an hourly rate, which is typically between $100 and $250. Many jobs, such as inspections and structural calculations, are billed at a flat rate, which often falls between $300 and $800. The final cost depends on several factors, including the project's type, scope, size, complexity, ease of access for inspection, and your geographic location.

If you intend to do the majority of the work yourself, you can pay to hire an architect or a structural engineer to ensure your home remains structurally sound. They can help with the planning to make sure everything is up to code and safe for your family. On the other hand, if you’re not sure your home will be completely safe when you’ve completed the project, let a pro do the job.
