"My home insurance company recommended them. I used Paul Davis for the cleaning and storage my furniture. They had my household items from December 2014 through March 2015. Upon return of my items there were several items that were damaged during their handling of them. Several of the items they had even attached a note station they were sorry for the damage. I didn't complain and sacked that up: but there were items that they damaged and I showed them they took pictures of and said they would take care of and they haven't. They scratched my Click/Clack (futon) type of sofa that needs replacing and I haven't heard from them. I went back and spoke to owner back in April, and he assured me they were working on getting things taken care. I had even tried calling around to see if it could be fixed, it can't so I'm still waiting for replacement of this item. I looked for replacement parts for my dryer they damaged but was unsuccessful. They do need to replace the my Click/Clack with a brand new one, so I can close this chapter. The employees were really nice and accommodating.

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.

Dormers must be able to bear the load of their own construction and the added window. The style of the dormer, however, will determine where the weight loads onto your home's structure. A gable dormer bears the weight on the side walls whereas a shed dormer bears it on the front walls.

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.

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.

Yes, you can put a doorway in a structural wall; in fact, most exterior doors are set into structural walls. The project is a little more challenging than installing a door in a non-load-bearing wall because you need a structural engineer to assess the wall and make sure it’s safe to create a wall opening. Your engineer’s report will include instructions for your contractor on how and where to install additional supports, like steel headers above the door, to distribute the weight above to the wall on either side of the door.
