"I am having a full master bath and kitchen remodel done with new layouts in both rooms and knocking out a wall. Evolution worked with me to quickly get a drawing done of the new layouts so that the contractor could get started on the project. They made sure to include me in the process so that the design would be done exactly as my wife and I envisioned. They communicated effectively throughout the process and were always courteous and professional. I recommend them to anyone with drafting needs."

"I wish everyone could build a new home in NMB/SC so they could share our experience with Tidewater Builders, Inc. Our mission was to find an architect, and a home builder to redesign the house plans we purchased for our home in North Myrlte Beach, SC.We live in NJ and planned on interviewing at least 3 architects and builders. After we met Bret Broadwater, Pres.of Tidewater Builders, Inc. we looked no further. He was very professional with a great sense of humor. He actually cared about us. He made suggestions that we would never have thought of to save us money.One of the many things he suggested was going with 12' ceilings instead of the 13' He had many more suggestions as well. He loves what he does and it shows. Mary-Patricia Broadwater was our interior designer She drove us all over making selections for the new home, and at the same time keeping us with in our budget, with beautiful choices. TBI was a pleasure to do business with and they have our blessing to show our home to any future clients. We are very fortunate to have found them. They made the process stress free from 600+miles away."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Most lenders and homeowner’s insurance companies don’t mandate a structural engineer’s inspection, so in most cases, it’s not required. However, it’s a good idea to have one done anyway to ensure you know what you’re buying. You can use the report to carry out repairs after closing or even to negotiate the sale price before closing.

The 10 10 rule describes the formula most contractors use to determine how much to charge for a job. Allowing for 10% overhead above the total projected cost to do the work and 10% profit sets a contractor up for success, even if there are delays or other problems on the project. This formula isn’t a hard-and-fast rule, but it is a ballpark figure to begin with when estimating your expenses on a job.

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)

The early stages of building a house are harder than the later stages; laying the foundation and framing the house are two of the most challenging steps. However, it varies for everyone. Some people have difficulty installing HVAC, plumbing, and electricity, while others find it harder to plan the house and secure the necessary permits. 

The depth of any foundation style depends on your climate and how deep the frost line is, as building code requires that the footers of a foundation—which are built into a monolithic slab—sit at least a foot below the frost line. At the southern tip of Florida, for example, a monolithic slab foundation would only need to sit 12 inches under the soil at the widest parts. On some parts of the Canadian border, the frost line is 100 inches, which would mean a minimum of 112 inches, which is prohibitively deep for a monolithic slab.
