"I am having a full master bath and kitchen remodel done with new layouts in both rooms and knocking out a wall. Evolution worked with me to quickly get a drawing done of the new layouts so that the contractor could get started on the project. They made sure to include me in the process so that the design would be done exactly as my wife and I envisioned. They communicated effectively throughout the process and were always courteous and professional. I recommend them to anyone with drafting needs."

"Sal Cuciti was absolutely outstanding! From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, thorough, and incredibly easy to work with. His expertise as an architect was evident throughout the entire process. He took the time to carefully review every detail, provided valuable insight, and explained everything clearly and in a way that was easy to understand. Sal was responsive, patient, and always willing to answer my questions. His attention to detail, experience, and commitment to his clients truly stood out. He made the entire process feel smooth and gave me complete confidence that I was in excellent hands. If you’re looking for an architect who is knowledgeable, professional, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about his clients, I highly recommend Sal Cuciti. He exceeded my expectations, and I would gladly recommend him to anyone looking for exceptional architectural expertise and service."

"Working with Mark was easy and efficient. He talked through what we were looking for in additional space (master bedroom suite) and we worked out all of the small details. We love the old New England look of our home and he was able to capture that look in his plans while giving us the modern updates we were looking for (closets and a large bathroom). He gave us 3 versions of the overall design to choose between. Once we had chosen the design, he produced the building plans. He also coordinated with an engineer to do the engineering report. All the while, he was extremely responsive and reached out whenever he had a question about what we were looking for. I highly recommend working with him!"

"Great. Gene is extremely knowledgeable and collaborative. He helped us to create a layout that combined what we were envisioning with what the space actually allowed. His son Ryan was the project lead and even while they were in the middle of working, they both encouraged any adjustments/questions we had. My wife and I were also home during the entire project due to the Quarantine and their team was always polite and accommodating. Highly recommend!"

"Since I Moved to New York me and my husband we find that  it will be a big problem for as to find a good contractor that can help us to get done the construction and remodeling at our new house that we bought in woodlands ..
The first problem was that houston doesnt have any specific requirements, certification or license for contractors  what means is it a big problem to track them ..
The second problem we had that we did t have any friend for recommendations...
We found a couple of contractor on home daviser and yelp and we decided to give a try...
We received a couple of bids form them and we decided to go with the one that gave us the best bid ...,,Houston Renovation & Remodeling,, But after they begin the work we find out that this company has very poor experience in construction and the worst think was   that they begin to overcharge us saying that a lot of thinks waren t indicated in the bid.. Yes we where very upset   and we decided to not work with that company.. We called again the company's that we received the bids and we asked them to rebid the job and we asked them to specify all the details that will be included and witch not..  After we received the new Bids Structurelne Construction Has the most accurate bid they also specify all the details even the garbage removal...  My husband sad that he will go with Structure Construction  and I was agree with..
It took approximately 2 month for them to finish the Remodeling In our 4 bedroom House but  we are very satisfied with the results ..
They helped us to update the old 2 Bath, replacing all ceramic tiles and bathtubs..
We did replaced all flooring in the house we did update our old kitchen and closets...
and walls Restoration, new moldings  and painting.   Now all looks great and we are happy with the changes we did in the house..
Hope i will call them soon for some exterior work  and I am expecting to receive a good quote .. Thanks for all .."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

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. 

It's safe to assume that all exterior walls are load-bearing, or at least have load-bearing characteristics. Some older homes feature porches or bump-outs that don't rest on the home's foundation. However, they still must carry the weight of the roof section they support. Walls containing floor-to-ceiling glass or other non-structural elements must use post and beam configurations to meet load-bearing criteria.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

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.

Through detailed analysis of load paths, materials, and existing damages.
