We are a family owned and operated Public Adjusting Firm that has been open since 1987. For over 30 years we have assisted homeowners through the property claims process and have bolstered our business based on our efforts to not only get the greatest settlement possible for our clients, but also by conducting ourselves as courteous professionals who treat our customers with a great deal of respect and consideration. Unfortunately the time when we usually meet for the first time is after some sort of tragic or catastrophic event in the life of a homeowner, i.e. a collapsed roof or burst stack pipe. However, given our attention to detail, knowledge of construction and vast amount of experience we are fully capable of walking you through these no doubt difficult to deal with situations and we can help you come out of it with a great sigh of relief and often a notion of surprise at how great and quick a settlement can come from the claims adjusting process. Give us a call for a free home walk-through and policy evaluation!

"????? Highly Recommended Review: Funari Public Adjusters I am writing to share my experience with Funari Public Adjusters, and I cannot say enough about the exceptional service provided by the owners, Chris and Vito, and their entire team of experts. From the very first call, they were immediately available and responsive, helping me during my critical time of need. The team went above and beyond in every aspect?from assigning a dedicated representative to handle my claim, to guiding me through the entire process from start to finish. Every staff member I interacted with was friendly, professional, and extremely helpful whenever I had questions. I have used this company on three separate occasions, and each time they exceeded my expectations: When a neighbor?s tree fell on the back portion of my home. When I experienced a theft at my rental property, resulting in damages and losses. Most recently, after heavy rains caused significant roof damage to my home, including my top-floor"

"I am a construction attorney who worked for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for 32 years before I retired. I also maintained a par-time practice throughout that time. and represented many home buyers. I found Mr. Muehlbronner from AHI, Inc., to be by far one of the most, if not the most competent and rigorous inspectors that I have had the pleasure of working with in my career. He uncovered numerous problems in the 1st house that was under contract . We had to walk away from the first house. This was the second house that he inspected for us within a month. Mr, Muehlbronner was well worth every penny spent on his consultation and inspection services. I would wholeheartedly recommend him without reservation."

"Mr. Graci provided a perspective buyer of my home with a report that indicated numerous serious problems with the house. He only came into the garage and never went to the first and second floors of the home and never climbed a ladder to throughly investigate the upper areas of the outside of the house. Despite this he made claims about interior floors and outside walls. His report was so disturbing that I hired another structural engineer to inspect the house. This engineer entered every room in the house, climbed a ladder to inspect the outside walls, and took measurements of cracks. His report refuted all but a small fraction of Mr. Graci’s report. I also had a contractor inspect the house, areas of his expertise, and his findings refute Mr. Graci. Therefore, I would be very careful and hesitant to hire Mr. Graci! He did not do professional work as it related to my house."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

In many areas, advice from a structural engineer or an architect will be required by your building department before you can remove a wall, but even if it’s not necessary, it’s a good idea. Accidentally removing a load-bearing wall—even if a general contractor advises that it’s safe—can cause major structural damage, putting you and your family at risk and potentially costing thousands or tens of thousands of dollars in property damage.

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.

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.

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.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them.
