"We hired Obsidian to come out and see if we could do an addition off the back of our home in the Northside of Richmond, and to have them do a structural inspection of the home to see if anything else should be addressed. Charles and Chris were both extremely knowledgeable, thorough, thoughtful, and enjoyable to interact with during the whole inspection and in follow up. They provided me with solutions to help address the drainage around our property to help address some structural issues with our covered from porch and to help eliminate moisture from our basement and crawl space. They even indicated they would be willing to do the drafting for our addition at a significantly lower price than the architects we had interviewed. Definitely would recommend them for anyone seeking a structural engineering firm."

The company's President, Frank, arrived promptly and gave me a professional and thorough assessment of what I needed to know about my property. I will definitely call on them again!"

"Foundation is great and they were very pleasant until check cleared. Did not clean up after completing foundation and driveway. I have boards sitting in a pile in my yard that do not belong there. They did not start the wall because they could not get engineer drawings completed and now they will not return phone calls or messages. I'm very disappointed and disheartened since this is the 2nd contractor from Anji that has been unable to complete this job."

"DFC is a really solid company who puts quality in all of their work. They really assisted us in a bind because the overhead cabinet started to fall of the wall. Apparently the people who renovated the kitchen during the house flip, they used the incorrect screws. DFC came to our rescue and rehung the cabinet and used the proper screws. My anxiety kicked in and I figured if the house flippers had hung that cabinet with the wrong screw, all of these were probably hung improperly too. I spoke to Brian about a renovation and they worked with us on every detail and aspect of our kitchen. Besides our bathroom, which was renovated in 2019, the kitchen is our favorite room in the house. They installed recessed lighting because the kitchen doesn't get much light because the back of the home faces the woods. This was nice because other contractors refused to installed recessed lighting in popcorn ceilings. They added an additional cabinet and pantry to maximize storage, previously that wall had been empty, which I am not a fan of wasted or empty space. They also made a custom shelf that is just so beautiful, it looks like something out of a magazine. Brian, Lillian, and team truly did a remarkable job in turning our drab and inefficient kitchen into a place anyone would love to cook. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for their overall home renovations."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

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.

Absolutely, as it ensures designs are viable and won’t compromise structural integrity.

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?

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.

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.
