"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."

"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"

"We had known about this problem for some time and had also had a structural engineer evaluate our situation.  We may be putting our house up for sale soon and decided it was finally time to get the wall fixed.  Armed with my own research and the engineers evaluation, we searched for a contractor to perform the work we knew we needed to have done.  Upon contacting Foundation Experts, Larry got back to me very quickly and we set up an appointment for him to inspect the wall.  He was VERY thorough in explaining what needed to be done to stabilize the wall to prevent any further movement/damage.  He said we should have the wall "pinned".  He quoted us $4000 to do the whole job (10 pins along a roughly 25ft. long wall).  They also designed the system so that the re-bar would pass through the top course of block and attach to the house sill plate above the wall to help lock it in place.  
The price was on par with most other estimates (slightly cheaper actually), but we decided to go with Foundation Experts mostly because they were very thorough with their evaluation, were honest (I was armed with a lot of info about our situation and felt very confident that what he proposed to do was exactly what needed to be done) and they did not pressure us at all.  I also really liked the fact that they routinely work with engineers and felt that they had a better grasp on executing the work over other contractors we contacted.  They also will work with the township if permits are needed.
We scheduled for the work to start the following week.  Their team took about 2 days to do the work.  They were very professional and did not make a mess at all.  They put plastic up to prevent concrete dust from getting everywhere in the basement and cleaned up thoroughly.  Larry was present during the bulk of the work and made sure that everything went smoothly.  They even worked with us on the payment method.  He made it very clear if we have any issues/concerns or questions to call them anytime.  He also stressed that if we sell the house and potential buyers have any questions/concerns to contact him and they will work with us as best they can.  
The wall is now fixed and my wife and I feel better knowing that our wall won't come crashing down during then next heavy rain!  We also feel better knowing that we won't have to worry about foundation issues coming up if/when we sell our house.  All in all, it was a great experience!

"I had a great experience planning the design of my second story addition!! The architect was great at capturing my needs and vision and provided me with suggestions to maximize the space and make it functional. Her suggestions were modern and gave the space a clean cut feel while making it cozy and inviting. She also modified a few things upon request to ensure I stuck to budget without losing my vision for the space. The whole process was explained from beginning to end with timelines and things to expect. I would totally recommend!!!"

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

The depth of any foundation style depends on your climate and how deep the frost line is, as building code requires that the footers of a foundation—which are built into a monolithic slab—sit at least a foot below the frost line. At the southern tip of Florida, for example, a monolithic slab foundation would only need to sit 12 inches under the soil at the widest parts. On some parts of the Canadian border, the frost line is 100 inches, which would mean a minimum of 112 inches, which is prohibitively deep for a monolithic slab.

A structural engineer’s report is almost always worth it, as it can help you avoid buying or overpaying for a home with structural issues. The most important thing the report does for you is provide peace of mind that you won’t have to pay thousands of dollars for structural repairs right after closing on a property.

Most structural engineers offer free quotes, regardless of the size of the job. For simple inspections when buying or selling a home, engineers typically charge a flat fee that may be based solely on your home’s foundation type and square footage. For larger projects, like new construction and major home renovations, an engineer will either perform an analysis of your project and site and provide you with a formal estimate, or they will do a more in-depth assessment and in-person site inspection before coming up with a per-hour or per-project cost estimate. In most cases, the estimate is free.

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.

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.
