"Will, Cam and Trey were great! They were professional, friendly and took time to explain everything. They did great work and even took an old porcelain sink I had in the basement that was too heavy for me to take to the curb and they ended up hauling it away. I am very pleased with the work they done. Thanks guys!"

In the last seven years, I've designed residential, commercial, multi-family, retail, and townhouse projects, as well as space planning projects. This diverse experience has prepared me to tackle a wide range of projects successfully. I'm bilingual in English and Spanish, and I've had the opportunity to study, work, and travel in South America, Southeast Asia, and Europe. This has given me a strong cultural and architectural background that informs my work. Additionally, I have extensive experience in construction.

"Mario is fantastic to work with. He truly cares about the project and works hard to troubleshoot any issues that come up to ensure all options have been exhausted before changing course. He is extremely responsive, professional, patient AND meticulous. He would check, double-check and, if-needed, triple check measurements, even if it meant coming to the property an extra time. Couldn't be more pleased with the experience and outcome."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

It depends on the bank and the extent of the issue. Some banks will lend against homes with minor foundation damage, but most won’t if the issue is structural since the home acts as collateral for the mortgage. Banks that offer renovation loans might still finance a home with structural problems. More minor issues like settling cracks and intermittent problems with humidity are unlikely to stop a bank from financing.

Squeaky floors don’t always mean structural damage. Usually, it’s caused by friction somewhere inside your floor—whether it’s a loose floorboard or a gap between the subfloor and joists. If there is structural damage, you’ll notice other signs like soft or sagging floors, cracks that go from the wall to the ceiling, and horizontal cracks on your foundation.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

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.

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.
