Who we are: a group of architectural engineers and design build experts who want to help you build smarter. What we do: We help you make sure your new home build or important renovation will be done in the best way for your budget and personality. We'll help you think about how beauty intersects with function so that you can happily and comfortably live in a home that fits your unique needs. Why we do it: It's too easy to assume you're stuck between an inexpensive cookie cutter modular home or a bank-breaking custom build. ADA renovations? Forget about it! But this isn't true. Our team cares about the future of affordable living, and together we can make it happen.

"WARNING: DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY! We hired Building Data Labs for drawings for a separate entry way into an upstairs room of a customer's home. The original plan was to make stairs on the outside of the home as the separate entry way however was told by BDL that this would trigger codes and it would be a nightmare to be approved by the town which now come to find out wasn't true at all according to the town, inspector, and contractor. They drew us new plans going on the inside of the garage. This took over 4 months and we paid them in full on site which included the architectural stamp. A total of $2000. When we FINALLY received the plans there was no stamp and the plans said "not for construction use". So we reached out to them and they asked for more information regarding the house. WE ALREADY PAID THEM TO GET ALL THE INFORMATION. We finally got the plans and were given a permit from the town and followed the plans. THE PLANS FAILED INSPECTION. I requested a refund since the plans are rendered basically unusable and we spent time following these plans with labor costs and materials and was told no by Sharan Muthalyalil because they have already done the "professional work" which I contacted the actual license engineer who stamped the plans to ask why he would stamp them and he said he didn't know these people and never stamped these plans. HUGE RED FLAG. Erin Horanzy the initial contact we dealt with is virtually impossible to contact and apparently traveling a lot according to Sharan. So at this point we have useless plans and wasted a total of 6+ months with this company. DO NOT HIRE THEM. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THIS COMPANY. We are in the process of taking legal action."

Structural Engineering questions, 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.

If you’re building new construction or adding onto your existing home, hiring a structural engineer is not only worth it but it’s probably required by your local building department. Structural engineers will ensure you aren’t making your home unsafe in the building process, which is crucial from a safety perspective but also a legal one. It’s also worth hiring a structural engineer if you’re making changes to structural components, like removing a load-bearing wall.

First, most contractors will have a structural engineer create a report and plan for your project to ensure it’s safe to cut into the load-bearing wall. The contractor will then excavate around the wall, if necessary, measure the opening—allowing for additional space to fit and level the door, and then cut the doorway out. They will likely install a steel lintel as a header over the door for support. Once the doorway is cut out, they’ll demolish the concrete using sledge hammers and masonry chisels, clean up the surrounding concrete, and seal around the door with masonry mortar. 

Signs of structural damage include foundation cracks, roof leaks, bouncy floors, crumbling concrete, and cracked or leaning chimneys. Structural damage can make itself apparent in various ways, and sometimes, there may not be obvious signs. Inspect your foundation and roof annually to stay ahead of potentially serious structural problems. 

Structural engineers typically conduct inspections during a home sale or renovation, looking for signs of structural damage in various structures throughout the building, such as load-bearing walls, joists, beams, roofing trusses, foundations, and chimneys. Some of the warning signs that structural engineers check for include:

  • Dry rot

  • Infestation

  • Shifting or cracking foundations

  • Erosion

  • Water damage

  • Sagging, shifting, or damaged walls, ceilings, or roofing support
