"I would highly recommend working with Structurist Consulting. They were responsive, readily available, gave more time than anticipated on a complicated structural examination and most importantly, really nice."

"We hired Dan to design our "dream home" from scratch. We had a few vague ideas we thought were best and final and Dan very graciously guided us through the entire Project: educating, informing and giving us options. We completed almost 99% of the work with him over email and yes, he was always there no later than next day to answer questions, showing new schematics and attaching technical documents to better explain his comments (this was very convenient and worked best for our busy schedule). I feel he was thorough and detailed and had the believe he was very involved all the time. The county we are in is tough and requirements are many. He went back to the drawing table and adjusted plans as many times as required by the Building Department even calling them a few times to discuss their concerns. We plan on start building this next Spring and this in part thanks to Dan that was efficient, turned our plans around quickly and stayed 100% on budget."

"Excellent. Highly recommend Brett Lamley of all pro builders. Honest, reasonable prices, exquisite attention to detail and very punctual. He is also a a very neat contractor. Such jobs require removal of old before installing new. We all should expect our home to be messy during such renovations but Brett spent extra time to vacuum and clean every speck of dust or dirt that may have been tracked in during working hours. Ive had many homes remodeled in 3 different states and Mr lamley is by and the best contractor I ve ever had. He has a great eye for design and was able to understand my wishes and gave me exactly what I wanted for my unusual mountain home. I couldn't be happier with the finished product. . Highly recommend him."

"I was really under the gun due to a prior Architectural firm not performing their duties per building plan codes. Not only were the plans incomplete but the City Plan Reviewer states(The Worst plans he’s ever seen) they will not make adjustments unless there is an additional charge for Thousands. Evaluation’s saved my clients and drew our project per code, along with Engineering in less time then they quoted. I highly recommended them, Especially Kirsten. You went above and beyond trying to coordinate this project. The staff was very professional and I will use them on all my projects. Sincerely, Frank B BCM Builders"

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

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.

Costs depend on unit complexity, labor, wall mounting needs, and additional accessories like floating shelves.

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.

Indications include cracks in walls, uneven floors, and sticking doors or windows that suggest foundation movements.
