"Had Betts Structural Engineering come and look at the foundation of a house we were in contract on. Josh came out and was professional and informative. He informed us the foundation was failing and explained what needed to be done. He throughly explained everything and told us how we could do it ourselves for much cheaper than a contractor could do it. In the end he saved us from a long and expensive process if we proceeded with the house."

"STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY. They took my 1st half deposit and then vanished. I have called multiple times. Spoke with someone once and they promised a call back. Never did. Emailed and no response. This was over 4 months ago. Nothing. They stole my money. Sales guy was John Mullikin. Here's their class-act response by chat. The best response I've had yet. "Conversation closed by Erika"."

Weeden Waterproofing, Inc., in Avon Lake, Ohio, has served the west side of Cleveland, including Lorain and Cuyahoga counties, since 1999. Our goal is to find the most direct, yet comprehensive avenue to correcting your waterproofing and foundation issues. What separates us from the rest is our honesty and attention to detail while working on your project. We pride ourselves on diagnosing your problem on an individual basis, as opposed to selling a waterproofing job to everyone.

"I highly recommend John and his team (Matt and Trevor) for any basement waterproofing. John provided an honest assessment of our project and tasks that I could do to reduce the project costs. Trevor and Matt hand dug to the foundation, discovered a small crack in the footer, then dug even further down to provide underpinning for the footer. The wall was sealed and a new window well constructed with brick. The area was backfilled with gravel and topped with premium soil. All work was completed within 5 days. Good people!"

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

In Akron, structural engineering maintenance should include annual inspections of load-bearing walls for shifting or cracks, especially after winter. Monitor crawl spaces for excess moisture and wood rot, and ensure attic ventilation prevents ice damming. Regularly test sump pumps and keep gutters free of debris to manage water flow. For older homes, periodic structural assessments help identify early signs of settlement or foundation movement.

Helpful?

Akron offers a range of specialists, including residential structural engineers for home renovations, commercial consultants for business properties, and experts in foundation repair. Some contractors focus on structural assessments for real estate transactions, while others specialize in retrofitting older buildings or addressing wind load and snow load concerns. Forensic engineers are available to investigate structural failures or damage from severe weather events.

Helpful?

For Akron’s variable climate, high-strength concrete with air-entrainment resists freeze-thaw damage, while treated lumber is ideal for framing in damp areas. Use corrosion-resistant steel for beams and connectors, and opt for vapor barriers to protect against ground moisture. Locally sourced masonry products are well-suited to area soil conditions, and energy-efficient insulation helps maintain structural integrity through temperature swings.

Helpful?

When hiring in Akron, prioritize professionals with proven experience in structural assessments and a strong understanding of local soil types. Confirm they have a history of successful projects in neighborhoods similar to yours and are familiar with area permitting processes. Check for up-to-date insurance, positive client references, and expertise in handling both modern and historic structures to ensure your project meets all safety and compliance standards.

Helpful?

Homeowners in Akron sometimes neglect to verify if their property is in a flood-prone area, leading to inadequate drainage planning. Overlooking the need for structural assessments before removing walls or adding heavy features can compromise safety. Failing to coordinate project timelines with seasonal weather patterns or hiring professionals unfamiliar with local permit requirements also increases the risk of delays and compliance issues.
