"Bob is very professional and provides great customer service.  He gave us an estimate soon after we contacted him and was able to schedule the work within the same week.  Even though he was tearing down old plaster and using a sander, there was no mess left after he was finished.  The closet looks great.  He even matched the texturized finish of the original plaster.  I couldn't be happier with the job."

"Cramer Engineering provided me with the information that I needed to evaluate and repair the foundation of my home. Zach Bingham answered all of my followup questions in a timely manner and provided me with a comprehensive written report. The cost of the inspection was well spent and saved me a considerable amount of money in that I did not spend money on unneeded repairs."

"While Keith is quite knowledgeable in his trade and at one time completed the work himself, it's quite evident he has an "A" and "B" team working for him. Our project went more than 10 days past the estimated completion date and they started 10 days before the estimated start date (there was a period of almost 2 weeks where no one worked at our house a single day and our deck was completely torn apart with building supplies taking over a section of our backyard grass). Keith did try to go above and beyond by obtaining some reclaimed granite to make my grill area a bit more sophisticated. Again, Keith knows how a job should be done but I clearly got the "B" or maybe even "C" team. Poor craftsmanship, corners cut and a stain job that was embarrassing to call professional left a real sour taste in my mouth. The kids he has working for him basically used my deck project as a training program. I eventually asked Keith to knock off a couple hundred bucks from the final payment because I could wrap up the staining myself 10 times better than his guys (which I've since started but not yet completed). I expected to be "wowed" with this project and after Keith said to me "I don't think I could ever truly satisfy you" I know the time to cut bait was then. There were numerous un-stained parts of the project and too many touch ups to note (e.g. Where you could clearly see the wood or previous paint under what they "painted"). Oh, and there is now deck paint on some of the wood siding of my house (again, sloppy job). Looking at the job after it was "done", i noticed many more corners that were cut - literally and figuratively. The railroad ties are not level (sloping severely down) and the cuts around the stairs are not even the same on both sides - making it look sloppy and uneven. Oh and there is so much sand now on my brick patio that I'm tempted to re-do it myself - and there's huge chunks of polymer missing and weeds coming through already... What Keith promised sounded awesome and I think with the right crew, I would have been wowed. Now, I'm just glad it's over and happy that it at least looks better than it did before they started. Make sure you're getting the "A" team. You'll know very quickly if you aren't..."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

A 4-inch-thick concrete slab can support around 4,000 pounds per square foot if a contractor reinforces the slab with rebar, while that same slab without reinforcements will support closer to 1,000 pounds. For the purposes of a patio, 4 inches in thickness without reinforcement should suffice unless you’re installing heavy kitchen equipment or a hot tub on it. In those cases, reinforcing your slab and sticking with 4 inches of thickness should provide plenty of strength.

Yes, water damage can affect your walls' structural integrity. If the water or moisture sits on the walls for an extended period, it can weaken the drywall, plaster, wood framing, and other materials supporting the wall. That's why it's critical to dry out the area as soon as you notice it.

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

The best way to determine if ceiling cracks are structural is to hire a ceiling contractor to inspect the cracks and provide a professional opinion. That said, you might be able to make an educated guess based on the size and appearance of the crack. Larger cracks, cracks accompanied by sagging or discoloration, and cracks that travel from the ceiling down the walls are all signs of structural issues.

Yes, you can put a doorway in a structural wall; in fact, most exterior doors are set into structural walls. The project is a little more challenging than installing a door in a non-load-bearing wall because you need a structural engineer to assess the wall and make sure it’s safe to create a wall opening. Your engineer’s report will include instructions for your contractor on how and where to install additional supports, like steel headers above the door, to distribute the weight above to the wall on either side of the door.
