"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."
"Mina is extremely knowledgeable, clear, patient, and upfront. I never hired a structural engineer before and was feeling intimidated by the process. Kiro Engineering understood my issues and home renovation desires and provided me several solutions to make sure the result was safe and properly executed. Through conversation it was clear that Kiro is equally at home dealing with a homeowner like myself as well as very high end extensive and commercial projects. I can’t recommend Kiro enough for any structural engineering projects."
"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 searched the local area on Angies list for an architect. I found Three D Concepts and gave a call to Joe. He came to the house and spent about an hour looking at what would need to be done to take this wall out. Joe thoroughly explained what the job required as far as structural support in the basement and necessary dimensions of the beam to be installed in place of the wall. I decided to move forward with Joe, within approximately 2 weeks he had the drawings finished. He provided me with multiple copies which 1 would be submitted to the town and others to contractors for estimates. I asked Joe to draw plans for the front entrance way as well. This drawing because it was the front doorway of the house required a few rough versions to be drawn to get an idea of how it would look. We discussed the drawings a few times and once we agreed which one looked best, he finished it and brought the final drafts to my house with the wall removal drawings. Both sets of drawing were professionally done on large 24'' x 36'' size paper with great detail and all of Joe's business and license information present. I would recommend Joe to a friend and use him again for future work. Thank you! "

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts
Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.
No, a structural engineer is not the same as a builder. A structural engineer is an expert in all things related to the structural integrity of a building. The structural engineer is responsible for calculating the correct materials in terms of load-bearing capacity and overall structural safety. Structural engineers do not perform the actual building of the house or other structures. Rather, the builder executes the plans and designs specified by the structural engineer.
Yes, professionals reinforce the foundation with additional supports or piers to prevent future sinking.
The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.
