"We were initially overwhelmed with the renovation and addition possibilities of our fixer upper. However, Dan's vision, timeliness and easy manner made our experience a very positive one. He offered suggestions which improved the design and saved costs. We wholeheartedly recommend A+ Drafting Services!"

"Tommy Hood saved us thousands of dollars with our foundation repair. Others quoted from $8,000 to upwards of $80,000. He fixed it for much less and explained why the other estimated work was not needed. Tommy was honest, dependable and on time. I would consult him before I ever had anything else done on my home regarding structural work."

"On time. On budget. We had an interesting conversation over their contract but the owner worked with me to come to an equitable modification we could both live with. There was a part of the work bracing joist that was cut out for the toilet drainpipe that was not done correctly. Once I reported it, I was told I was correct and that they would have someone back to fix it correctly. All that happened as they said it would. No big job ever goes perfectly. These folks stood by their sales pitch and took care of everything very professionally"

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

The essential difference between an architect and an engineer is that architects typically focus more on the aesthetic design of buildings, although not without consideration for the structural integrity of the building. Engineers focus more on the structural, technical, and practical aspects of whether and how an architectural design can be built as drawn. You may need to hire both types of professionals if you’re designing and building a new home.

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.

The best way to determine if ceiling cracks are structural is to hire a ceiling contractor to inspect the cracks and provide a professional opinion. That said, you might be able to make an educated guess based on the size and appearance of the crack. Larger cracks, cracks accompanied by sagging or discoloration, and cracks that travel from the ceiling down the walls are all signs of structural issues.

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.
