"We recently completed a project with Lallygone to remove 3 columns from my basement. The entire experience from scheduling a consultation with the engineer to completion of the job was seamless. The team is knowledgeable, courteous and very professional. I strongly recommend them for replacing lally columns or any structural improvements in existing or new homes. George thanks for your honest recommendations, Chris for your in-depth inspection and detailed explanation & Lena for managing it end to end.. thanks for the wonderful experience."
"Very professional experience with Mina, the engineer who thoroughly explained his findings and suggested remedies. He confirmed house settlement suspicions and causes in a lengthy, detailed report complete with photos. I trust Kiro Engineering and would highly recommend them for structural engineering consultation and peace of mind."

"I couldn't be happier with the results, the chimney went from being an eyesore and structurally deficient, to being a feature that looks greats and adds value to my property. My house has a very large chimney, about 30' high and very wide along the length; the contract price may appear high but was a bargain when you consider the condition and size of the chimney and the work they performed.

"The town required structural drawings for the retaining wall around my pool and after speaking with and getting estimates from several Structural Engineering companies choose Magnus Engineering. The company was responsive and willing to provide the service quickly. James Strizki was the engineer; he was professional, patient and reassuring. He continued to follow-up even after receiving payment until I had the final inspection. They were reasonably priced and delivered the required signed sealed documents allowing me to finally close out the permits that were pending from the year before."
"The contractor is very good. They are very punctual. They provided the engineering drawings for the township, provided a detailed plan to replace the bowing wall, and the pinning of two other walls for structural support and the basement entrance. They also provided support for a high water table issue The crew was one of the best I have ever seen. They came, worked extremely hard and completed the job on time and as the building inspector said," a stellar job". They covered all objects in the basement to minimize the dust, and moved the washer and dryer, reconnecting them in their new locations. "

A structural engineer evaluates any structural components, like floors, foundations, walls, and roofs, to ensure they can support the structure.
