About us

Hello, my name is Louis Schwartz and I am the owner of Tiderunner Engineering & Design, P.C. I started my civil engineering business in 2004 to focus on the residential construction Industry. With over a decade of experience in the industry I have substantial knowledge in preparing plans for renovations and/or additions. I have also been reviewing plans in Suffolk and Nassau counties for code compliance written by others, structural analysis, and residential sanitary system design. I work very close with both contractors and homeowners and I enjoy supplying engineering support for contractors in the residential construction field. My company has been very successful over the years because I provide such a variety of services as both a structural engineer and a plan preparer. I have helped several residential contractors with building permit application preparation, grading and drainage plans, as well as acquisitions. If you are looking to work with the best in the business; look no further than Tiderunner Engineering & Design, P.C. Call me today to set up an appointment.

The only reason I gave 4 or 4 1/2 srars was that I had little to compare this company to. This was my first st time usuing a structural engineer.But what I experienced was very professional, and his plan made sense as to how to address my problem.

We had just purchased a house and after we closed saw a crack in the foundation of the house. We were very nervous and wanted to be sure that it was not a danger to us. We called Mr, Schwartz who returned out call diligently and saw us within a couple days of us making contact. He was very detailed and thorough and gave us advice on simple things we could do to maintain a healthy foundation. Within 24 hrs of his visit he provided us with a written report about everything he observed and advice he gave us. Very professional.

Tiderunner Engineering and Design arrived on time for the appoint. the engineer was very helpful with the support beam design and added helpful suggestion.. the company sent the beam replacement plans via e- mail within three days as they stated they would, and if Ihave any questions they would gladly talk to me over the phone. I am very happy with this company.

Professional and honest. Took the time to review each section of the structure - explaining the proper manner in which to fix the issues. Provided a detailed clear evaluation with associated documents for solving the structural issues.

Mr. Schwartz arrived on time, and provided a thorough examination and assessment of the foundational errors that exist in my reconstructed post-Superstorm Sandy home. He spent much time explaining the soil report and how to interpret it, and going over the blueprints for the house. His report arrived 2 days later. Overall, he was very professional and I would recommend him to anyone requiring the services of a design engineer.
