"Working with Groundworks was wonderful from start to finish. It began with their sales team, Rich G, ensuring my old, quirky home had a customized and thorough solution, phased out to make the job more approachable. Rich took the time to understand my goals for the project and the nuances of my house even though that took significant time and multiple trips to my home. The installation crew (Jose N., Phil S., Diego A.) was professional, prompt and answered ALL of my questions. Their communication kept me informed every step of the way! When the job was completed, it looked like they had never been here - the yard and landscaping look untouched. I would definitely recommend Groundworks for anyone who needs to have their foundation worked on!"

At GreenWorks, we know that buying, building, or investing in property is one of the biggest decisions of your life. You deserve absolute peace of mind and confidence in your investment. That’s why we’ve built the nation’s largest privately owned, non-franchise inspection and engineering company—serving with unmatched quality, speed, and care. Unlike most inspectors who only point out problems, GreenWorks provides clear answers, proactive solutions, and cost transparency. Every inspection includes a detailed walkthrough, a comprehensive report with photos, and a free repair estimator so you know exactly what deficiencies mean and how much they will cost to fix. From foundation mapping, plumbing, and HVAC checks to mold, asbestos, radon, and lead testing, our comprehensive services ensure no detail is missed. For homeowners, we are your go-to partner from the first pre-pour on new construction to warranty inspections years later. For realtors, we keep deals moving forward with fast, accurate reports and communication your clients can trust. For commercial investors, we can inspect up to 900 units a day, delivering thorough PCAs, ESAs, and structural plans that keep feasibility studies on schedule. And for builders, we provide engineering-led quality assurance to make sure projects are built right the first time. Founded nearly two decades ago by CEO Harmony Brownwood, GreenWorks was created to raise the bar in an industry that too often settles for the bare minimum. Every inspector completes a rigorous training program—including structural engineering—before serving clients. Our team is backed by licensed engineers, cutting-edge technology, and a full support staff available 365 days a year. When you choose GreenWorks, you’re choosing more than an inspection. You’re choosing a long-term partner committed to safeguarding your property, protecting your investment, and giving you clarity at every step.

"I have a very dangerous situation with my foundation in the front of my house. I hired these guys to tell me how to tell a contractor to fix the problem. When they came out to inspect, I showed them the problem and they agreed, it was a real problem. Later, they send a report back that completely ignores the very real problem I have. Instead, telling me to fix the back of the house that is no problem at all. Trying to ask for further assistance, they said they did what I paid them for."

FAQs for structural engineering projects in Live Oak, TX

No, it’s not legal for unlicensed individuals to conduct structural calculations for buildings or building repairs. Not only do licensing requirements prevent DIYers from tackling this project, but mistakes can also be extremely dangerous and put your property and anyone inside or near it at risk of severe injury or even death. You should always hire a licensed and certified local structural engineer to make structural calculations.

Yes, all states require structural engineers to carry the proper license, with specifics determined by each state. You can use Angi’s state licensing tool to confirm that the structural engineer you’re considering holds the required licensing to tackle your job. Hiring an unlicensed structural engineer will not only cause issues with permits but it could also lead to an unsafe building. The cost of a professional, licensed, and experienced engineer is well worth the investment.

The process of hiring a structural engineer starts by finding reliable professionals in your area and comparing quotes from at least three of them. From there, you can narrow down your selection by asking some leading questions:

  • Do you have experience working in my specific area?

  • Do you have professional indemnity insurance?

  • What will your structural report cover?

  • Do you charge a flat fee for a structural report or by the hour?

  • How long have you been in business?

  • Do you have a list of customer references?

Structural engineers typically charge between $100 and $250 per hour, but many jobs won’t be based on a per-hour fee. Instead, the structural engineer will offer a flat rate for the inspection and structural calculations. The flat rate for a structural engineer costs an average of around $550, but you could see prices ranging from $300 to $800, depending on the complexity of your project and how easy it is to access certain parts of your home for the inspection.

Whether you’re building a new home or building an extension on your existing property, you will likely need both a structural engineer and an architect. A structural engineer will determine what loads your foundation and framing can safely handle, and an architect will draw plans according to those structural calculations to simplify the building process. You can start by contacting a structural engineer near you, as many work alongside architects and can get all of the prep work done at once.
