"I hired David to inspect a home I was considering after the initial home inspection team noted some potential issues with the beams in the basement. David was easy to work with and came out on short notice to give a very thorough inspection of the home's foundation and made recommendations that would benefit the property in the long-term. The price for the inspection was very reasonable, and I would absolutely hire him again if I should ever need structural engineering services in the future."

"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."

"Nick and his team are simply too notch! I am always impressed at their design creativity and their ability to translate that into architectural drawings in a timely and professional manner for a fair price. Additionally, Nick and his team are well informed as to current codes and what City permit reviewers are looking for. Once, when the City wanted adjustments, Nick handled it personally and went over and above to help expedite matters. Nick is pleasant to deal with and easy to communicate with. I have recommended him to clients and wouldnâ t utilize anyone else!"

"Jeff was excellent to work with! He was knowledgable all of the details, manufacturers, colors, and came up with 4 different design options for the exterior of our home. We are just regular people, with an average home, who are planning to replace roof, trim and accent siding. His fees are reasonable, and totally worth it for such a big investment on our home. More people should consider getting some help with these important decisions. Thanks again Jeff!"

"We needed someone to go through the city variance process for our build. In the middle of the process our original architect was unable to finish our project and Tate Architectural Design was able to pick up where we left off and complete the job. They were also very easy to reach and helped us every step of the way with any questions we had. I would highly recommend."

"John and his crew are the best. Top quality work and really easy to work with. The attention to detail and the craftmanship are top notch. If you want it fast and cheap, this is probably not the company for you. If you want a structure that will stand the test of time and is done right, these are your guys. I will definitely hire John again for my next project."

"I was finally able to create the master ensuite of my dreams with the help from Carifa Design Group! Joe Carifa was able to completely reconfigure my master with a his and her closet that leads into the most gorgeous master bath. I fell like I wake up every morning in a suite at the Ritz! He also moved my laundry room to the second floor from the basement. I'm so in love with my home now & never plan on moving! I had attempted this project with two other contractors & they never delivered with even half of the transparency & professionalism as Joe & his crew. The quality of his work is unmatched & will only trust him with any future home improvements!"

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

You need to hire a structural engineer when building or modifying any component with a structural load in your home. Common situations where you would need a structural engineer include home inspections when buying or selling a home, investigating possible issues with your foundation, beams, load-bearing walls, or chimneys, breaking ground on a new home or structure on your property, and renovating an old part of your home that could threaten any structural integrity. Home additions and bump-outs also require an engineer.

A structural engineer's report provides a professional assessment of a property's structural condition. It typically includes an evaluation of the foundation, key structural elements like roof trusses, floor joists, studs, beams, and rafters. The report will also contain a detailed description of the engineer's findings, often supported by photographs, and provide recommendations to correct any identified issues. Depending on the scope of the inspection, it might also include an assessment of property drainage, potential issues from environmental conditions like extreme weather or tree placement, and an estimated time and cost for any recommended repairs.

Water can seep into porous materials like wood beams, floor joists, and roof rafters within minutes, but they’ll need to see prolonged exposure before you have structural damage. Mold can start growing within 24 hours, and mold can eat away at the structural components over time. Wood rot is more of a concern, though. Wet and dry rot are fungal infections that set in in moist conditions and rapidly deteriorate wood, causing major structural damage within just a few months in some cases.

It's safe to assume that all exterior walls are load-bearing, or at least have load-bearing characteristics. Some older homes feature porches or bump-outs that don't rest on the home's foundation. However, they still must carry the weight of the roof section they support. Walls containing floor-to-ceiling glass or other non-structural elements must use post and beam configurations to meet load-bearing criteria.

Stone, marble, and brick are common building materials of Neoclassical architecture, though you will also find wood flooring and a range of natural stone tiles. Since several home styles fall under Neoclassical architects' umbrella, a range of building materials—including traditional wood framing—will make an appearance.
