"I am a contractor that has used ZS design for years now. Every job that I have done ZS has been available on a very level available. Their knowledge goes beyond just providing drawings. They are willing to work with you step by step as a question come about and any issues during the build occur. It’s nice to be able to make a quick call and they are immediate available. Highly recommend their services to builders/contractors and especially home owners who at times have trouble finding that necessary first step to begin their projects."

"I hired Mr. Csak as a consultant to advise me on structural improvements for my home. He did an excellent job. He had a very organized approach. We walked the exterior of the property first and along the way he pointed out all the key issues. Then we did the same with the interior. Louis didn’t just focus on the site of the proposed improvements but he evaluated the entire property, so that he could give me reasoned, detailed advice about my project. He understood the big picture, but he also got down on his hands and knees to take very precise measurements, when necessary. He was very focused on my safety in the home and made sure to test for radon, even though that was outside the scope of the engagement. Since Louis is a professional, licensed engineer you are getting someone with deep technical expertise who also has years of practical applications. Louis is very honest and forthright. He is a true pleasure to work with and I would use him again. I recommend him most highly."

"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."

"I?m Patti Phelps from Prime Estimation in Plano, Texas. We recently hired NextEdge Builders Corporation for an architectural project, and I supervised the work throughout. We first had them prepare our architectural drawings, and their output was excellent ? clear, accurate, and professionally done. After the drawings were completed, we moved ahead with a cost estimate, which turned out to be highly accurate, around 98?99%, and very reliable for our budgeting. What I appreciated most was how smoothly their drafting and estimation teams work together. Having both services under one company saved a lot of time and avoided unnecessary coordination. I confidently recommend NextEdge Builders Corporation for anyone needing dependable drafting and estimation services across Architectural, Electrical, Plumbing, and Mechanical scopes."

Structural Engineering FAQs, answered by experts

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.

It depends on the bank and the extent of the issue. Some banks will lend against homes with minor foundation damage, but most won’t if the issue is structural since the home acts as collateral for the mortgage. Banks that offer renovation loans might still finance a home with structural problems. More minor issues like settling cracks and intermittent problems with humidity are unlikely to stop a bank from financing.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.

The early stages of building a house are harder than the later stages; laying the foundation and framing the house are two of the most challenging steps. However, it varies for everyone. Some people have difficulty installing HVAC, plumbing, and electricity, while others find it harder to plan the house and secure the necessary permits. 

Most lenders and homeowner’s insurance companies don’t mandate a structural engineer’s inspection, so in most cases, it’s not required. However, it’s a good idea to have one done anyway to ensure you know what you’re buying. You can use the report to carry out repairs after closing or even to negotiate the sale price before closing.
