"I'm combining two bedrooms into one, and expanding a bathroom requiring plans to remove two walls and install beams. Throughout the process Kevin was very helpful in preparing me to file an application for a building permit with the city of Pittsburgh. His demeanor is pleasant and he was always willing to find the best method for a successful outcome."

"From the initial estimate and quote to the actual execution of the work, Pedro and his team did a fantastic job. They were diligent, consistently on time, accommodating of our requests, and completed the basement finishing—approximately 700 sq ft—in just three weeks. We couldn’t believe the pace of their work. The quality was excellent. Keep up the great work, Pedro!"

"If your looking for an architect, just stop here. This was my first time ever hiring an architect and the experience has been educational, professional, and most importantly secured. He went to bat for my business and hit a home run. Very informative, gave updates on the work being done. He went above and beyond with what he has to do as he helped me locate several contractors. I would stop here, and roll with Lynn."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

If you’re building new construction or adding onto your existing home, hiring a structural engineer is not only worth it but it’s probably required by your local building department. Structural engineers will ensure you aren’t making your home unsafe in the building process, which is crucial from a safety perspective but also a legal one. It’s also worth hiring a structural engineer if you’re making changes to structural components, like removing a load-bearing wall.

Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.

A split-level home is one that has several staggered floors connected by short staircases, while a split floor plan separates the primary bedroom from the rest of the bedrooms. Split floor plans are most often found in single-story homes, while split-level homes are always at least two stories.

If your home's foundation was damaged due to shifting soil, the same problem will reoccur unless you stabilize the structure by adding posts in the bedrock.

You should pick steel for your new support beam for a few reasons. While steel is more expensive than other materials, such as laminated veneer lumber or glulam, it offers the following benefits:

  • Fire-resistant

  • Unaffected by pests

  • Longer-lasting

  • Stronger against water damage (when galvanized against rust)
