At LEVEL, we are committed to common sense, real-world solutions. We pioneered LEVEL because, after years spent exploring all disciplines of civil and structural engineering in the building industry, we continually encountered the missing fundamentals in our own trade. These lost elements of service culture & exceptional business practice inevitably cost owners & entities untold stress and frustration; contractors lost time & money, realtors & lenders were left unable to satisfy their clients' needs. We concluded that our capacity for A&E services could function at a higher level, thus, LEVEL Engineering & Inspections was founded. We serve your interests & provide knowledgeable, expert design, inspections, analysis, forensics, recommendations, and reporting. Whether your need is for permitting, forensics; new, remodel, or repair engineering designs; foundation problems; civil or architecture - let us help you navigate your Civil, Commercial, Residential Structural Engineering needs.

"I was long over due on doing a addition/ remodeling project on my house. I had Victor come out and I went over what my plans were and what I had envisioned. He was quick to offer solutions that met the cities guidelines, which meant part of my addition would be 2 stories, to allow room for my master suite. They prepared the plans worked out all the details with me. The scope of our project was; adding a master suite, enlarging the family room, kitchen remodel, powder room remodel, and some other misc. work. I was pleased with every aspect of there work, from customer service to the quality of the work preformed. One thing I was really impressed by is the attention to details. Victor would spend so much time talking to me about little design elements, how to position the lights, where to put switches, all things which I thought were pointless at the time. But now I realize all those little things really do add up to make a great finished product. All around it was a pleasure working with Build Now NYC"

"Pantec Engineering helped us with the planning, engineering, and management of an exterior facade project our condo needed to remedy multiple leaks we were having. They were very knowledgeable and easy to work with. They helped us come with a plan that was economical and helped with finding a contractor to do the work properly. Highly Recommend."

We are a family owned and operated business with over 40 years of experience in the remodeling industry. We are fully licensed and insured in NYC, Nassau and Suffolk counties.

"I don't think contractors come any better than this one. Tom was professional throughout, meticulously explaining everything to us at every step of the way. You should hire this guy for his communication skills and customer service skills alone. Not only was he responsive to our texts and calls -- he himself was proactive and constantly in touch with us about the schedule and the work. And the quality of the work is great. You can tell when there is pride of craftsmanship. Tom does a lot of the work himself but when he needs to subcontract, the people he hires also seem to be serious craftsmen. Our final cost for the work was more than the estimate but you have to be naive to expect that when you embark on something like this that there aren't going to be a few surprises. Whenever one of those surprises cropped up (crumbling 100-year-old sewer line, for example), Tom informed us and laid out all the options for us. Definitely hire him! I know we will, again, when we need major work."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

Yes, you can put a doorway in a structural wall; in fact, most exterior doors are set into structural walls. The project is a little more challenging than installing a door in a non-load-bearing wall because you need a structural engineer to assess the wall and make sure it’s safe to create a wall opening. Your engineer’s report will include instructions for your contractor on how and where to install additional supports, like steel headers above the door, to distribute the weight above to the wall on either side of the door.

Squeaky floors don’t always mean structural damage. Usually, it’s caused by friction somewhere inside your floor—whether it’s a loose floorboard or a gap between the subfloor and joists. If there is structural damage, you’ll notice other signs like soft or sagging floors, cracks that go from the wall to the ceiling, and horizontal cracks on your foundation.

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.

Failure to compact the soil during construction is the most common cause of leaning retaining walls. In addition, poor drainage can lead to excessive water pressure behind a retaining wall, pushing against it until it begins to move forward away from the soil it is holding back.
