"We are builders and have been building in central Ohio for over 25 years. We are thankful to have known Dave. He is extremely knowledgeable, communicates detals in an easy way and is very prompt to deliver. He often finds other ways to engineer things that we hadnt considered which make him our 1st choice in engineers. We would highly reccommend him and his services."

"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."

"The person who came out and gave an estimate for the work was very accurate in his measurements and was very courteous. They gave us the lowest quote, so we called a couple of weeks later to set up the time for them to work on it. They came to do the work at the scheduled time. They explained what they would be doing and when they were done showed the work to me. There must have been some lack of communication somewhere because the crew that came to do the work didn't know they would have to be tearing out a couple of walls to get the trench dug out. They did it anyway and everything was installed and working great so far, though we haven't had a rainfall yet. The only complaint that we have is that they left a lot to clean up, but I think that was partly because they hadn't planned on cutting out a couple of walls. The price was so low though that if they had planned on that I think the estimate would have been a lot higher. So for that price, we could do the cleanup without too much complaining. This is a company we would definitely hire again.

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

In Dayton’s climate, pay attention to hairline cracks that widen seasonally, minor water seepage after spring rains, or small spots of wood rot. Even slight floor unevenness or roof sagging can quickly worsen due to shifting clay soils and humidity. Addressing these early with a structural inspection helps prevent major home foundation repairs and protects your property from severe weather damage.

Helpful?

In Dayton, be cautious of vague quotes, missing details about soil analysis, or proposals that don’t mention permit requirements. Extremely low bids, lack of references from local projects, or professionals unfamiliar with Dayton’s clay soils and weather are warning signs. Always expect a clear written proposal, defined project timeline, and references from recent area structural inspection or home foundation repair projects.

Helpful?

For Dayton homes, keep a crack gauge or ruler, a 4-foot level, moisture meter, flashlight, and camera to monitor structural changes. Emergency supplies like hydraulic cement, plastic sheeting, adjustable support posts, a dehumidifier, and a sump pump are helpful. Preventive items such as foundation sealers, gutter cleaning tools, caulking compounds, and wood preservatives help manage Dayton’s clay soils and humidity.

Helpful?

In Dayton, it’s time to schedule a structural inspection if you notice foundation cracks wider than 1/4 inch, sticking doors or windows, sagging roof lines, or water entering your basement. Homes over 50 years old, especially after harsh winters or heavy storms, should be checked every 3-5 years or before starting major home foundation repair or renovations to prevent costly structural issues.

Helpful?

If you notice recurring cracks within a season, water intrusion after repairs, or foundation fixes that fail during Dayton’s freeze-thaw cycles, previous work may need to be redone. Signs like poor drainage, mismatched repair materials, or incomplete inspections suggest the repairs didn’t address local soil movement. Missing documentation is also a red flag that the project may not meet Dayton’s structural standards.
