"***BEWARE*** Do not hire this firm because if they find something wrong, they will turn you into the City Building Inspector. My house is for sale and in the buyer's inspection, a crack in the foundation needed further assessment. I hired ACE based on internet recommendations to assess this foundation crack. I spoke to Doug on the phone several times prior to our meeting and he seemed great. Prior to the site meeting, I had said that the buyer would be there so if he saw anything really bad to speak to me in private about it. He said that he worked for me and wasn't comfortable with the buyer being there and would not address anything in front of him. When he met me at the house, that all went out the window. He said that the foundation crack was not an issue but he found some other things that he didn't like. Now keep in mind, I only hired him specifically for this foundation crack. He assessed a underground concrete garage roof, which on the top also doubles as one entry point for the house. He said it wasn't safe and basically was going to collapse. And it was going to call the City Building Inspector to report this. Now I was flabbergasted. I had no idea there was any issue with this roof. I pleaded with him to not call the city officials because this was the first I was hearing about it and to give me a chance to repair. He said it was against his ethical code. He also told the buyer to basically run away from this sale because there were major problems. This was an as-is sale so ACE had no right to provide their opinion after we had hired ACE directly. Once ACE left, I called a concrete contractor immediately to assess the roof. I met the contractor the next day and he basically told me that it was not in any danger of collapsing. ACE forwarded the engineering report to the city building officials who put a lien on the property based on "Unsafe Conditions". I spoke to the building inspector who said he agreed that it was in no danger of collapsing but since they have a stamped engineer report, they had to write me up. I had to hire another engineering firm to assess this garage roof and draft plans for the work to be done. This literally cost me the sale of the house and more than $10K in repair work. DO NOT HIRE THIS FIRM!"

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Precast concrete can be reinforced with rebar, wire mesh, or other materials to improve its strength and add stability. Precast concrete for large construction projects is often pre-stressed as well for greater structural strength. Reinforced concrete is durable and strong, making it an ideal choice for many construction projects.

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.

A structural engineer’s report includes a professional assessment of a property’s foundation condition, structural elements like roof trusses and floor joists, and the skeleton of the home, including studs, beams, and rafters. It will also usually include an assessment of drainage on the property and any potential issues that could arise from environmental conditions, like extreme weather in the area and even tree placement.

If you intend to do the majority of the work yourself, you can pay to hire an architect or a structural engineer to ensure your home remains structurally sound. They can help with the planning to make sure everything is up to code and safe for your family. On the other hand, if you’re not sure your home will be completely safe when you’ve completed the project, let a pro do the job.

Yes, you can build over a stump if the roots are no longer alive. Living roots will continue to grow and may damage your new construction over time. Similarly, you should also remove rotting stumps because they may continue to attract pests and even cause new structures (especially those made from wood) to decompose as well.
