"The guys from Obsidian came for one issue that was a non-issue, and pointed out how water around my house was slowly damaging to the structure of the home. They did not try to sell me anything, and solely wanted me to understand how I could improve the water flow around my home. I am a gardener and they suggested a rain garden with the rerouting of my water, which was wonderful! They pointed out the damage, which was noticeable. The first structural engineering firm I had was all about sales, never pointed out the water issue, and said the cracks in the interior walls needed to be fixed immediately, and I could call JES. Obsidian was all about making sure my home stands in a healthy way for many years to come! They said the cracks in my walls were repaired prior to me moving in and had just reopened -- no big deal but normal settling (1963 home). They are honest and ethical and I would call them again in a heartbeat!"

"I am having a full master bath and kitchen remodel done with new layouts in both rooms and knocking out a wall. Evolution worked with me to quickly get a drawing done of the new layouts so that the contractor could get started on the project. They made sure to include me in the process so that the design would be done exactly as my wife and I envisioned. They communicated effectively throughout the process and were always courteous and professional. I recommend them to anyone with drafting needs."

"Jake and his team were great. They installed as agreed and did so in a professional manner. The project took a couple of days but they held to their word and did everything well. Very customer focused and will work until you are happy. Highly recommend."

"When we came close to the completion of our new build I remember feeling daunted at the thought of furniture placement especially with our front entrance, dinning room and family room as they were all connected with no division, very open concept. After moving in, we were overwhelmed with where to start. We contacted Valerie to assist us in making our house a home. Valerie has an eye for detail and a passion for creating beautiful, functional spaces. She created design boards that reflected a blend of mine and my husband's styles. She really listens to her clients’ needs and preferences. We worked with her to pick out pieces that fit our space and budget. She will go above and beyond to ensure your satisfaction, and she is always available to answer questions and address any concerns. It was a pleasure working with Valerie and her company, Brexton Cole Interiors. She is committed to quality and customer service. We highly recommend Valerie!"

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on furniture type, size, complexity, and whether additional modifications are needed.

A structural engineer evaluates any structural components, like floors, foundations, walls, and roofs, to ensure they can support the structure. They also consider the soil quality in your area, potentially extreme weather conditions, and proximity to bodies of water and groundwater to ensure your building can withstand any stresses placed on it by the surrounding environment. Structural engineers work on both new and existing buildings.

Cathedral ceilings make a statement in your home, but at the cost of your attic space. Normal attics are wide open, which allows warm air to move around and exit your home. Because of this, cathedral ceilings make your home less energy efficient and put your ceiling at risk of venting issues if you’re not careful. They also reduce your attic storage space, potentially cause an echo, and even make it harder to change a light bulb.

The standard thickness for an LVL beam is between 1.75 inches and 7 inches. However, you can order LVL beams in non-standard sizes as well. When you work with a contractor, they can source beams that are the appropriate size for your project for you after assessing your blueprints.

Signs of structural damage include foundation cracks, roof leaks, bouncy floors, crumbling concrete, and cracked or leaning chimneys. Structural damage can make itself apparent in various ways, and sometimes, there may not be obvious signs. Inspect your foundation and roof annually to stay ahead of potentially serious structural problems.
