"I had used AFM years ago for an assessment of my homes sloping floors. I asks for a reassembly to determine if I now needed foundation work. I appreciate the professionalism showed by the Engineer. He was prompt, courteous and answered all of my questions. I believe that his fee was reasonable for the service offered. He explained what the issues were with my home. He offered different solutions for me. His staff was very helpful as well. If I ever need an Engineer this will be the company that I will call."

"We were looking for a structural engineer to help us with our home renovations as we wanted to remove a load bearing wall. Juan was wonderful to work with! He was so kind and patient in explaining everything. We don’t know anything about this process so he took all the time we needed to answer all of our questions in a way for us to understand. He responds very promptly through text and calls. The price he quoted us was also much more reasonable than some other quotes we got. I would definitely recommend working with him!"

"Neil was thoughtful and took his time to look at everything we wanted to show him. As he looked around he also made verbal suggestions on things that needed to be fixed that was not necessarily a part of the structure of the house, but to be safe; that was appreciated."

"I have used Structureline few time in the past It all begins with a bathroom Remodeling when I used to live in Jersey City... I Hired them Based on recommendations and good reviews... The story was that at that time 2009 I couldn't find a good Licensed Contractor to get the management  board approval in my building, because of the high requirements.. And my sister Gina give me the contact information of Structureline as certified contractor.. After they pass the board they did the bathroom remodeling and I was very happy with their results... After I moved to Brooklyn my husband said that would be nice to hire a contractor  to do a extension to the house.. After we received several bids from different contractors even that the price was a little higher we decided to go with Structureline because we already knew their work.. Nicolas advised us to build a second floor instead of the back extension and we thought that is a brilliant idea and went for it...
To tell the truth the construction took longer then we expected .....a lot of paperwork, inspections for framing , plumbing  we did received a violation because we haven't  used the scaffolding  properly weather conditions etc...
But we know that Nicolas did the best to finished and we do appreciate that... My husband was very happy wen the construction was completed, a lot of closets room, master bathroom, Large windows , big living room and huge living room...
I really liked bout their renovations that the walls a straight and smooth like glass, defiantly is recommended to see ....

"I hired Peter from Pantec to clear up several building code violations in my apartment building. From the moment we spoke on the phone I felt comfortable and confident that I was in good hands. He outlined his proposed work with a timeline and executed successfully. He even went the extra step and drafted a letter for bank financing for bank financing purposes. Pantec-my go to local engineer. Thanks Pete!"

"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.

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Building codes for spiral staircases will vary by your location. Most local codes will specify minimum tread width, riser height, handrail requirements, and headroom. These standards help ensure safety and accessibility for all users. Always check local codes before you begin the installation to ensure compliance and avoid costly modifications or fines.

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. 

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, unresolved damage can decrease property integrity and market value.

Many horizontal cracks in home foundations result from water and soil pressure from outside of the building or from a footing that is shifting. Under those circumstances, horizontal cracks are a structural problem that requires repair before they become worse and more difficult to fix. However, in very specific cases, thin horizontal cracks may simply be a cosmetic blemish due to concrete shrinkage.
