"This man seemed very professional, but I was somewhat dissatisfied with two things; 1) he told me after the inspection he would recommend businesses to do any or all repairs. I clarified this would include interior damage caused by the potential structural damage and he agreed. This was not the case. I felt like this was part of the service I paid for, since it was agreed upon prior to me contracting him. When I brought this to his attention, he stated he would not recommend anyone, and that I should check with the BBB for contractors to do the work. This just was not acceptable; however, I had already paid him in full, so there's little I could do. 2) he recommend a beam be removed under my sink area. This beam had recently been installed by another structural engineer hired by my association. I had two other companies agree that the beam should be placed there to prevent sagging under my kitchen counters. I inquired about this beam and asked if he was sure it should be removed. He did not care to elaborate, but only suggested that it be removed. You would think a detailed explanation would be possible, as this man is not inexpensive. Anyway, he seemed very detailed, and he was polite, but I would have hoped he would have fulfilled the terms he agreed upon prior to receiving payment. If I had to hire another structural engineer, I would not hire him again for this reason."

"They were excellent. They quickly made a draft that only needed 3 minor adjustments. The final product was exactly what I needed. They referred me to a structural engineer for review. The whole process took half of the time that they initially estimated. I would definitely use them again."

"Mark was great! He was very thorough and helped us identify what most critically needed to be addressed in our home. Having him offer a neutral 3rd party opinion helped ease our minds regarding the various projects that need to be completed. Highly recommend."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Generally, you can tell if a home is bolted to the foundation by checking the foundation for plates. If you see that your foundational plates connect to wood or bolts protruding from them, this means that you have a bolted foundation. However, it's always wise to bring a home inspector in to confirm if your foundation is secure.

All foundations have footers, including monolithic slabs. In some cases, the foundation itself acts as the footer, as in the case of a floating slab and a monolithic slab. With a monolithic slab, the footers—which are just the bottom-most portion of the foundation that distributes loads down to stable soil—are a part of the main slab and are constructed with a single pour.

The process involves initial consultation, concept development, detailed planning, regulatory approvals, and integration of contractor work for project execution.

If you’re building new construction or adding onto your existing home, hiring a structural engineer is not only worth it but it’s probably required by your local building department. Structural engineers will ensure you aren’t making your home unsafe in the building process, which is crucial from a safety perspective but also a legal one. It’s also worth hiring a structural engineer if you’re making changes to structural components, like removing a load-bearing wall.

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.
