"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!"

We're innovative, hard working and we get the job done right from the science to the site. From our administration team, to the project managers and field crews, our employees are highly skilled and thoroughly trained professionals. We specialize in air quality testing and mitigation (Radon), underground tank decommissioning, sewer inspection & repair, plumbing services, directional drilling, environmental site assessments and environmental restoration.

"I hired Environmental Works on the recommendation of a co-worker. Not only was it the least expensive of the three bids I received but it was also the only company that offered a lifetime guarantee on its work. The entire installation of a radon mitigation system in my home took less than six hours. The company guarantees that its radon mitigation system can keep radon levels below 2.7 pCi/L. A three-month radon monitoring test, completed ten months after the installation of my mitigation system, indicated radon levels at 1.4 pCi/L. I am very pleased with the work that was performed at my home."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

In Salem, new homeowners should prioritize a structural inspection to assess seismic retrofitting needs, especially for homes built before 1994. Evaluate your foundation for movement caused by local clay soils, and check for water intrusion in basements or crawl spaces. Review your roof’s framing to ensure it can handle Salem’s heavy rainfall. Before remodeling, identify load-bearing walls to prevent compromising your home’s structural integrity.

Helpful?

For Salem’s damp climate, keep a moisture meter and hygrometer to monitor humidity, as well as a level and crack gauge for foundation checks. Stock up on waterproof sealant, French drain materials, and a dehumidifier to manage water issues. Earthquake straps and flexible gas connectors are smart for seismic safety. Always use protective gear like gloves, hard hats, and safety glasses when working on structural repairs.

Helpful?

In Salem, be cautious if a professional overlooks seismic retrofitting or ignores local soil and drainage concerns. Avoid anyone who suggests bypassing required permits or promises unusually fast completion during rainy months. Watch for quotes that differ drastically from others, and always request recent references from Salem homeowners. Confirm that your chosen expert carries appropriate insurance and understands local foundation repair standards.

Helpful?

Your Salem home is a strong candidate if it was built before 1994, has a raised foundation, or shows signs like wall cracks, uneven floors, or doors that stick. Homes in historic neighborhoods often benefit from structural upgrades. If you’re considering a remodel or want to improve resale value, foundation repair or seismic retrofitting can be wise investments. Insurance discounts may also be available after seismic improvements.

Helpful?

Homes in Salem with hillside lots, proximity to creeks, or marine sedimentary soils often face unique foundation and drainage challenges. Older properties, especially those built before the 1950s, may lack seismic upgrades. Split-level layouts, large additions, or vaulted ceilings can complicate retrofitting and reinforcement. These features may require specialized structural solutions, so factor them into your project planning from the start.
