"100% Reccomend to anyone who needs a structural enginner. Chris is best structural engineer I have ever met! Valid license with the city so knows the code and standards. I needed him to verify what a previous structural engineer said was all cosmetic fire damage, in a home I was considering buying, was actually a huge strutural damage that needed full replacement of 8 joists and reconstruction of the entire shingle roof. He crawls into the crawlspaces and gets to every detail. Fun fact, biggest problem is usually moisture and that is actually bad drainage, so if youre reading this check where the water goes from your gutter spouts and hope its going 15ft away from your home. I highly recomend his services for any structural enginnering concerns, aka your attics/roof your beams/joists, and your crawlspace/basement. Any cracks inside your house as well."

"They were excellent. They quickly made a draft that only needed 3 minor adjustments. The final product was exactly what I needed. They referred me to a structural engineer for review. The whole process took half of the time that they initially estimated. I would definitely use them again."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

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?

All foundations have footers, including monolithic slabs. In some cases, the foundation itself acts as the footer, as in the case of a floating slab and a monolithic slab. With a monolithic slab, the footers—which are just the bottom-most portion of the foundation that distributes loads down to stable soil—are a part of the main slab and are constructed with a single pour.

Foundation cracks that are 1/8 inch wide or less, aren’t uneven across the gap, and don’t continue widening over time are usually just normal settling cracks and don’t suggest structural issues. Horizontal cracks and stair-step cracks on foundation walls, any cracks that continue widening, are wider than 1/8 inch, or where one side juts out beyond the other, are often indicative of structural damage.

Yes, unresolved damage can decrease property integrity and market value.

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.
