He offered suggestions which improved the design and saved costs. We wholeheartedly recommend A+ Drafting Services!"

"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"

"The work went well, and I’m satisfied with the patio, path and the siding replacement. Initially, the siding work was a repair to the brick work above the garage, but the finished work was so good compared to the original, I had them replace all my brick siding."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

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.

According to the Earthquake Country Alliance—a public and private alliance in California that works to improve earthquake and tsunami readiness—reports that unreinforced masonry, such as stone, bricks, and hollow clay tiles, is more susceptible to earthquake damage. The mortar between bricks isn’t as stable as other building materials and methods.

If your home's foundation was damaged due to shifting soil, the same problem will reoccur unless you stabilize the structure by adding posts in the bedrock.

First, most contractors will have a structural engineer create a report and plan for your project to ensure it’s safe to cut into the load-bearing wall. The contractor will then excavate around the wall, if necessary, measure the opening—allowing for additional space to fit and level the door, and then cut the doorway out. They will likely install a steel lintel as a header over the door for support. Once the doorway is cut out, they’ll demolish the concrete using sledge hammers and masonry chisels, clean up the surrounding concrete, and seal around the door with masonry mortar. 

Through detailed analysis of load paths, materials, and existing damages.
