As owner/designer/builder, I hired Mark to validate the structural design of an atypical home on the Sandy River with challenging structural details. Mark also supported me during the building review process as part of his bid. The plans went through the county review first pass with no changes. After the start of construction, Mark advised on inspection issues and as built issues that came up allowing the project to move without delays. Even though he was on vacation, he responded to my requests during construction. The only improvement I would suggest is a bit more one on one collaboration early on to be on same page conceptually but with the pandemic and heavy client load in todays building environment, to be fare, that is a challenge for all engineers and my project was an oddity. I would use Mark again on a future house. He has integrity and that's number one.

I am delighted to offer this favorable review for Mark. When contacted, he promptly scheduled a site visit. Upon arrival, he thouroughly addressed each and every one of my concerns in a clear and straightforward manner and quickly followed up with a summary of his observations. With regard to his fee, one really cannot place a price on peace of mind. I personally found his fee to be more than fair given his knowledge, background and exceptional delivery of service. I would not hesitate to hire him again.

Quick response, easy to work with. Cost of service is much higher than HomeAdvisor.com average estimate. Got what we need to satisfy the permit requirement.

Mark was thorough and explain what caused the roof, walls and foundation to be problematic. The knowledge gained will now help decide which contractor is best suited to do the repair. Thank you Mark for the great advice and insight!

I had a tight timeframe to complete a structural inspection on a house I'm closing, Mark was able to come out the next day. He walked around the perimeter of the house and told us what each beam, post, footing, crack, floor slant indicates, and gave us advice on how to fix them, approximately how much it will cost for a contractor to fix them. I strongly recommend him.

Mark was a real professional! We had to contact him one year out from his original professional services, and we were able to contact him quickly. He efficiently answered the contractor's questions, which allowed us to keep our project on track. We would hire him again in an instant!
