"***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

Structural engineers are necessary for projects involving alterations to load-bearing structures, foundation work, and compliance with safety standards. This includes home expansions, retaining walls, and significant repairs that impact a property's integrity.

A freestanding brick wall that's only one brick thick can usually stand six to eight feet high. If you need a higher wall, it should be at least two bricks thick for adequate stability, and it might require a footing to support the added weight. Additionally, some areas have regulations and codes dictating how high a brick wall can be, so check with local code enforcers to ensure your proposed wall complies with any regulations.

In many areas, advice from a structural engineer or an architect will be required by your building department before you can remove a wall, but even if it’s not necessary, it’s a good idea. Accidentally removing a load-bearing wall—even if a general contractor advises that it’s safe—can cause major structural damage, putting you and your family at risk and potentially costing thousands or tens of thousands of dollars in property damage.

You need to hire a structural engineer when building or modifying any component with a structural load in your home. Common situations where you would need a structural engineer include home inspections when buying or selling a home, investigating possible issues with your foundation, beams, load-bearing walls, or chimneys, breaking ground on a new home or structure on your property, and renovating an old part of your home that could threaten any structural integrity. Home additions and bump-outs also require an engineer.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.
