"I needed a structural engineer for removing a wall. The company was able to give me a written plan I could submit to city inspectors in a very timely manner. What I thought would be a huge puse in our remodel ended up going on without delay."

"We reached out to StruTex Engineering, LLC for a structural engineering review of a construction project that was exhibiting suspected design shortcomings and significantly substandard workmanship. Mofid Nakhaei, PhD, PE from StruTex Engineering inspected construction methods and as-built status at the jobsite, prepared a letter thoroughly summarizing observed construction deficiencies, an engineering opinion of those observed construction deficiencies, and recommendations regarding appropriate next steps. We are totally satisfied with the review performed by Dr. Nakhaei, and we would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a professional structural engineering review of a construction or remodeling project."

Dave is just amazing to work with. Even after completing our final design a few months ago, Dave was more than willing to make several modifications to the drawings, over the course of at least a week. Thank you again Dave for your patience and for perfecting our vision for our home renovation. This has been a wonderful experience and we will continue to tell all of our friends and family about you! The Hearlds

"Mr. Green was able to come out just a few hours after we spoke of a morning, which allowed me to receive the structural engineering evaluation I needed, within my 7-day option period on the house we are to purchase. Mr. Green was very thorough, literally walking me through his verbal report, and gave me a plan of action for a settling/sinking concrete slab addition. I highly recommend Mr. Green's services!"

Structural Engineering FAQs, 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.

Water can seep into porous materials like wood beams, floor joists, and roof rafters within minutes, but they’ll need to see prolonged exposure before you have structural damage. Mold can start growing within 24 hours, and mold can eat away at the structural components over time. Wood rot is more of a concern, though. Wet and dry rot are fungal infections that set in in moist conditions and rapidly deteriorate wood, causing major structural damage within just a few months in some cases.

Structural engineers typically conduct inspections during a home sale or renovation, looking for signs of structural damage in various structures throughout the building, such as load-bearing walls, joists, beams, roofing trusses, foundations, and chimneys. Some of the warning signs that structural engineers check for include:

  • Dry rot

  • Infestation

  • Shifting or cracking foundations

  • Erosion

  • Water damage

  • Sagging, shifting, or damaged walls, ceilings, or roofing support

You need to hire a structural engineer when building or modifying any component with a structural load in your home. Common situations where you would need a structural engineer include home inspections when buying or selling a home, investigating possible issues with your foundation, beams, load-bearing walls, or chimneys, breaking ground on a new home or structure on your property, and renovating an old part of your home that could threaten any structural integrity. Home additions and bump-outs also require an engineer.

A split-level home is one that has several staggered floors connected by short staircases, while a split floor plan separates the primary bedroom from the rest of the bedrooms. Split floor plans are most often found in single-story homes, while split-level homes are always at least two stories.
