"After hurricane sandy in 2012 a lot of people in Brooklyn and  Long Island got flooded a lot of home owners received flood damages or  lost their property due to Hurricane Sandy... I am living on Cony Island Seagate  area at that time I was home with my Family and how a remember the water came up to my house and flooded my basement and first floor of my house... I was very scared and desperate.... We basically lost everything at the first and basement floor...
We have received some help from FEMA like every homeowner in that area  but the rest was huge loss from our pockets...
We found structureline based on recommendations and we started to do renovation...Nicholas the General Manager helped us out to apply for a small loan so we could begin the  renovation...We needed to do a complete  house renovation ....
They took off the walls  in the basement and 1st floor, they did mold disinfection, replaced all drywall's, wiring, boiler, windows, doors, siding etc..
They did remodeling on the master bathroom from the first floor and kitchen, they did a wonderful job...We love their new engineered Hardwood floor and the new design of the bathroom with the big bathtub and shower cabinet ... The price we spend ed was a little higher than we were   expected because we did some design work in the living room and Kitchen but for sure it worth it....If Someone will ask me for a recommendation for sure I will recommend Structureline because they helped me out at that time ....Thanks"

"The town required structural drawings for the retaining wall around my pool and after speaking with and getting estimates from several Structural Engineering companies choose Magnus Engineering. The company was responsive and willing to provide the service quickly. James Strizki was the engineer; he was professional, patient and reassuring. He continued to follow-up even after receiving payment until I had the final inspection. They were reasonably priced and delivered the required signed sealed documents allowing me to finally close out the permits that were pending from the year before."

"Absolutely stunning transformation! 5 stars and more for Aguitektura! As a realtor, I see a lot of kitchens, but the renovation that Aguitektura just completed on my own home takes the golden trophy! The entire process was a dream, from the initial consultation to the final finishing touches. Floor plan magic: The pre-renovation layout was clunky and inefficient. Enter the design genius of Aguitektura! They listened to my needs and translated them into a seamless, functional masterpiece. Walls moved, space opened up, and suddenly my kitchen was not just a place to cook but a place to truly live. The flow is incredible, and every square inch is now used to its full potential. Quality that shines: The craftsmanship and attention to detail are absolutely top-notch. No shoddy work here! From the custom cabinetry to the high-end appliances, everything is beautifully installed and built to last. They even managed to incorporate some of my existing pieces seamlessly, saving me money and preserving a touch of sentimentality. Stress-free zone: Let's face it, renovations can be stressful. But not with Aguitektura! They kept me informed every step of the way, were flexible with my schedule, and always responsive to any questions or concerns. Their professionalism and clear communication made the whole experience surprisingly enjoyable. A realtor's rave: As a realtor, I can confidently say this renovation has added immense value to my home. It's not just the beautiful aesthetics, it's the improved functionality and the sheer joy of finally having a kitchen that works for me. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Aguitektura to any of my clients looking to elevate their living space. In fact, I'm already singing their praises! If you're looking for a kitchen renovation that exceeds expectations, look no further than Aguitektura. They'll turn your culinary dreams into reality, and who knows, you might just find yourself writing a rave review just like mine! P.S. Don't forget to ask about their floor plan expertise! They have a real knack for transforming awkward spaces into functional havens."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Absolutely, as it ensures designs are viable and won’t compromise structural integrity.

The 10 10 rule describes the formula most contractors use to determine how much to charge for a job. Allowing for 10% overhead above the total projected cost to do the work and 10% profit sets a contractor up for success, even if there are delays or other problems on the project. This formula isn’t a hard-and-fast rule, but it is a ballpark figure to begin with when estimating your expenses on a job.

Structural engineers are necessary for projects involving alterations to load-bearing structures, foundation work, and compliance with safety standards. This includes home expansions, retaining walls, and significant repairs that impact a property's integrity.

Structural engineers can perform various inspections on different structures in your home. These inspections usually include a report detailing the engineer’s findings and recommendations for repairs so you can determine your next course of action for repairs, replacements, or new builds. Some of the most common structural engineering reports include:

  • Full home inspection: $350–$1,000

  • Foundation: $300–$800

  • Load-bearing walls: $300–$1,000

  • Roof: $150–$600

  • Chimney: $200–$500

Yes, all states require structural engineers to carry the proper license, with specifics determined by each state. You can use Angi’s state licensing tool to confirm that the structural engineer you’re considering holds the required licensing to tackle your job. Hiring an unlicensed structural engineer will not only cause issues with permits but it could also lead to an unsafe building. The cost of a professional, licensed, and experienced engineer is well worth the investment.
