David was on time and very professional. He spent an appropriate amount of time evaluating the 2 areas we had requested. He documented the inspection w/ photos, measurements, and sketches. He provided a verbal preliminary report and is to provide a written final report w/ specifications for the mods we are proposing. (Removing a wall upstairs and a post downstairs.) We were happy to hear that our mods were going to be less complicated than originally thought and consequently less expensive. We have the peace of mind that the proposed changes are structurally sound and will be done correctly.

"Working around the house initially made us nervous but it was clear then and throughout the project that Suncrest?s engineers are incredibly skilled and excellent builders. Work started in June and finished in September. We were sad to see them go! Bryan, the foreman, was fantastic throughout, and communicating regularly and making sure that our lives were minimally disrupted. He answered every question we had ? even going out of their way to research energy issues not relevant to the work they were doing. 
Although there was an expected hiccup of a re-design based on what they found after starting, Suncrest tackled those as timely as possible. They responded to every request or question with a can-do attitude.  In fact because of the extra time spent waiting for plans to be re-done and re-assigning crews to finish the job, they elected not to charge us some of the overrun charges that come with a job of this scale. 
The stairs far exceeded our expectations; we were completely blown away. To say they installed new stairs is like saying Michelangelo painted a church ceiling. Every detail was addressed with top-of-the-line materials. When we explained we were concerned about paint fumes, they didn?t hesitate to specially order water-based stain. They matched our existing stairs as much as possible (handrails, paint color, floor molding, even bar railing) and covered their work throughout the house so that it actually looked better than before. 
All in all, I would highly recommend working with Suncrest.  They are professional, ethical, friendly and will work with you to find the right design. They do it all, from electric, to woodwork, to plumbing.  We would not hesitate to use them again.

"During the normal inspection for a home purchase, the inspector found a crack in an exterior wall and suggested we consult a foundation expert.  The foundation person we contacted looked at pictures of the crack and said that we needed the expertise of a structural engineer.  He referred us to Andres Carvallo of Soil & Construction Consulting, who was wonderful.  We had a tight timeframe to complete the inspection.  We contacted Andres on a Monday morning; he replied promptly and found time to inspect the home that afternoon.  His inspection was thorough and thoughtful.  He determined that there was a water drainage issue, and he looked for similar problems elsewhere in the home.  He provided us with a comprehensive solution and a price estimate to give to the seller for negotiation purposes.  He also answered all of our questions with patience, which we greatly appreciated.
The cost of the assessment was $350, but a written report was extra $75, which we paid.  I gave this firm all A ratings except for Price because other outfits seem to include a report in their comparable $350 fee.  That said, we were so pleased with Andres' work that it was worth it.
I'm not sure what is going on with the other review of this firm, but it looks like it should be removed from Angie's List.  Our experience was extremely positive.

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

A freestanding brick wall that's only one brick thick can usually stand six to eight feet high. If you need a higher wall, it should be at least two bricks thick for adequate stability, and it might require a footing to support the added weight. Additionally, some areas have regulations and codes dictating how high a brick wall can be, so check with local code enforcers to ensure your proposed wall complies with any regulations.

It is not recommended to cut or drill into LVL (laminated veneer lumber) beams. As major structural components of a home, their composite structure can be compromised by alterations, which can weaken them and lead to cracking over time. If you must make modifications to an LVL beam, it is crucial to consult a structural engineer or general contractor first. A professional can advise on whether it's safe and provide specifics on the appropriate bit size, depth, and directionality for any necessary drilling.

Building codes for spiral staircases will vary by your location. Most local codes will specify minimum tread width, riser height, handrail requirements, and headroom. These standards help ensure safety and accessibility for all users. Always check local codes before you begin the installation to ensure compliance and avoid costly modifications or fines.

Structural engineers are necessary for projects involving alterations to load-bearing structures, foundation work, and compliance with safety standards. This includes home expansions, retaining walls, and significant repairs that impact a property's integrity.

Yes. Foundation walls are always load-bearing.
