"My initial review was somewhat marginal, but now several years later I will say that the reinforcement has been perfect, and they did eventually provide the engineered drawings that were promised shortly after the project completion. Only hitch was with the length of the steel, which they did correct by welding on tabs to each end. Ultimately it was a good job and completed in one day. Would definitely use them again if I needed to reinforce a structure."
"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."
"Anthony was an absolute pleasure! I truly appreciated his honesty and professionalism. Fortunately, he explained that I do not need to do anything at the moment, that my home's structure was stable, and that my issues were only causing cosmetic changes. However, he did explain what was happening, and what I should look for in the future to determine if the problem becomes more than cosmetic. I highly recommend Sisk Engineering!"
"Ed is very knowledgeable and thorough in his inspection. He is transparent and unbiased with his evaluations and shared lot of information which otherwise we will not know. We highly recommend him for any structural consultation"

"Home Advisor connected me to Structural Workshop LLC for a last minute project on a 203K loan application. Ms. Pawloski contacted me in a matter of seconds, sent a structural engineer at the property to evaluate a crack in the foundation, the same day, and sent the report for the visit the next day. I cannot recommend them enough. E-mail communication was fast and effective. I will request their services in the future. This is a company that knows what "time sensitive" means and will give you great quality work. Tatiana Sava"
"After hurricane sandy in 2012 a lot of people in Brooklyn and Long Island got flooded a lot of home owners received flood damages or lost their property due to Hurricane Sandy... I am living on Cony Island Seagate area at that time I was home with my Family and how a remember the water came up to my house and flooded my basement and first floor of my house... I was very scared and desperate.... We basically lost everything at the first and basement floor... We have received some help from FEMA like every homeowner in that area but the rest was huge loss from our pockets... We found structureline based on recommendations and we started to do renovation...Nicholas the General Manager helped us out to apply for a small loan so we could begin the renovation...We needed to do a complete house renovation .... They took off the walls in the basement and 1st floor, they did mold disinfection, replaced all drywall's, wiring, boiler, windows, doors, siding etc.. They did remodeling on the master bathroom from the first floor and kitchen, they did a wonderful job...We love their new engineered Hardwood floor and the new design of the bathroom with the big bathtub and shower cabinet ... The price we spend ed was a little higher than we were expected because we did some design work in the living room and Kitchen but for sure it worth it....If Someone will ask me for a recommendation for sure I will recommend Structureline because they helped me out at that time ....Thanks"

Not only was I provided with all the appropriate engineering drawings and calculations but they also stayed with me through the process until the necessary approvals were secured, making sure the township had what they needed. FULL SERVICE OPERATION AT REASONABLE FEES."
"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. "

Whether you’re building a new home or building an extension on your existing property, you will likely need both a structural engineer and an architect. A structural engineer will determine what loads your foundation and framing can safely handle, and an architect will draw plans according to those structural calculations to simplify the building process. You can start by contacting a structural engineer near you, as many work alongside architects and can get all of the prep work done at once.
Indications include cracks in walls, uneven floors, and sticking doors or windows that suggest foundation movements.
Cathedral ceilings make a statement in your home, but at the cost of your attic space. Normal attics are wide open, which allows warm air to move around and exit your home. Because of this, cathedral ceilings make your home less energy efficient and put your ceiling at risk of venting issues if you’re not careful. They also reduce your attic storage space, potentially cause an echo, and even make it harder to change a light bulb.
