"I contracted with TVP for engineering plans for a home addition in February, 2023. The sales person Phil McDodson, made an agreement to stay with the project through to the permit but walked away as soon as the county required additional information. At that point Janae Spinney stepped in and would not quit on me until that promise was complete. A special thanks to Joseph and Caleb for getting us through to the end. Every engineer and staff member with TVP was polite, knowledgeable and saw the job through. It was just approved January, 2025. Great company and I appreciate all you did for us!"

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

In Portland, structural engineering projects like seismic retrofitting or foundation repairs typically take several days to a few weeks, depending on project scope and soil conditions. Permit processing can add two to four weeks, especially during peak construction season. Wet weather may cause delays, particularly for excavation or exterior work, so scheduling during drier months can help keep your project on track.

Helpful?

Before starting a structural engineering project in Portland, document any existing cracks or settling, and gather previous inspection reports. Schedule a soil analysis if foundation work is planned, as Portland’s variable soil can impact stability. Review neighborhood-specific requirements and plan for potential weather delays, especially during the rainy season. Communicate with neighbors about upcoming work, and set aside extra time for permit approvals.

Helpful?

Be wary of quotes that overlook Portland’s frequent rain or the need for seismic upgrades. Avoid professionals who skip soil testing, don’t specify permit timelines, or fail to address drainage solutions. Lack of local references, pressure for immediate decisions, or requests for full payment upfront are warning signs. Quotes that are unusually low or vague about project phases and inspection schedules should also raise concern.

Helpful?

In Portland, homes with sloped lots, clay-heavy soil, or those built before seismic codes were updated in the 1990s often benefit from a structural inspection. Look for diagonal cracks near windows, uneven floors after heavy rain, or doors sticking during wet months. If your home has had past unpermitted work or you’re planning a major remodel, a structural assessment is highly recommended.

Helpful?

In Portland, structural engineering maintenance often includes checking for moisture intrusion during the rainy season, inspecting crawl spaces for mold, and ensuring downspouts direct water away from the foundation. Homes in older neighborhoods or on hillsides should have regular structural inspections for shifting or settling. After windstorms or earthquakes, promptly check for new cracks or foundation movement to address issues early.
