"My husband and I were introduced to B-DRY SYSTEMS OF SOUTHERN NY, in 2011. Whenever it rained our basement would get puddles, as the basement is partially below ground level. We were told by an acquaintance, that B-DRY had installed their system in a local firehouse, where flooding was problematic. We called B-DRY and a representative came to our home. He inspected our basement and exterior and went on to explain exactly how their system would be installed in our basement and the equipment that would accompany it. An estimate was given and and soon afterwards, the work and installation began. The workmen were polite and knowledgeable and at the end of completion each day, they left our basement and driveway tidy. Twelve years late, now 2023, our basement system is still operating well. With the most recent rainstorm dumping approximately 7.5” of rain in our area, the system continued to function even after one pump stopped working. The secondary pump (system is set up with two pumps) picked up immediately, without residual problems. We called the company and the same day a technician came and replaced the one pump, checking to make sure that everything was operating well. We cannot offer any complaints. Management stands behind their product! Realize, that the cost we paid in 2011, would not reflect what the same basement system would cost today!!"

Minimal deposit to schedule, balance paid in full at the end of the job.

Common Sense, Real-World Engineering Solutions At LEVEL, we are committed to common sense, real-world solutions. We pioneered LEVEL because, after years spent exploring all disciplines of civil and structural engineering in the building industry, we continually encountered the missing fundamentals in our own trade. These lost elements of service culture & exceptional business practice inevitably cost owners & entities untold stress and frustration; contractors lost time & money, realtors & lenders were left unable to satisfy their clients' needs. We concluded that our capacity for A&E services could function at a higher level, thus, LEVEL Engineering & Inspections was founded. We serve your interests & provide knowledgeable, expert design, inspections, analysis, forensics, recommendations, and reporting. Whether your need is for permitting, forensics; new, remodel, or repair engineering designs; foundation problems; civil or architecture - let us help you navigate your Civil, Commercial, Residential Structural Engineering needs.

"The service was good. The engineer was good. He was professional and he knows his stuff. He knows his job very well."

Forward thinking contractors and homeowners realize that Techno Metal Post foundations are the reliable and environmentally responsible alternative to concrete. Not only are they retractable (if the land use changes), they are also recyclable. Galvanized steel posts are engineered to bear the determined load and guaranteed not to fail. The patented plastic sleeve insures against frost heave and the hydraulic installation is minimally disruptive to the landscape.

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

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.

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

A structural inspection report will include a detailed description of the structural engineer’s findings, applicable photographs, and recommendations to correct the issue. The contents of the report may depend on the scope of the inspection but might also include a time and cost estimate for recommended work to correct any structural problems found during the inspection. 

Cathedral ceilings make a statement in your home, but at the cost of your attic space. Normal attics are wide open, which allows warm air to move around and exit your home. Because of this, cathedral ceilings make your home less energy efficient and put your ceiling at risk of venting issues if you’re not careful. They also reduce your attic storage space, potentially cause an echo, and even make it harder to change a light bulb.

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.
