With a well-respected track record behind us, and a solid outlook ahead, we’ve learned that our collective experience with all projects creates exceptional solutions and results for our customers, no matter what they’re building. From transportation structures to multi-level office buildings to retail and medical centers, the purpose of our business is building yours. HCI offers design, management and construction services to make your new construction project easy. Our full-service, turn-key approach assures you of a reliable, seamless process from pre-construction, through construction to final inspection. SITE-EVALUATION SERVICES: HCI's onsite, pre-bid walk-thru's are utilized to determine preliminary job evaluation and budgeting. We incorporate forward planning and identifying potential problems prior to job costing to insure accurate bids. Digital photos and extensive note taking help us to understand the entire project and needs of our clients. PRE-CONSTRUCTION SERVICES: HCI will facilitate the correct interface between owners, architects, engineers, municipalities, local building departments and subcontractors prior to job start up, insures a full understanding of job scope, seamless start up transition and complete schedule adherence. Meeting with all related parties prior to construction start allows everyone to understand each other’s needs, desires and requirements as they relate to the project.

CONSTRUCTION: A successful construction project always starts with successful planning. HCI prides itself on taking the time to plan and prepare for a project long before the first workers show up on site. Understanding that the complete construction process requires planning, scheduling, tracking, budgeting and proper managing allows our team of highly trained professionals, project managers and site superintendents to operate with optimum performance, and quality control on each and every project we undertake, from conception to completion.

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

The National Association of Home Builders requires repair of any foundation crack of more than one quarter of an inch, although local regulations may vary. In general, any visible crack that is growing in size, allowing water through, or that you have just noticed, is a good reason to call a structural engineer. Cracks can be a sign of a sinking foundation, so an inspection is a good idea for your peace of mind.

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.

While concrete walls do not need to "breathe" in the traditional sense of the word, they do require waterproofing and dehumidifying methods, particularly in basements below the water table. Concrete both contains moisture from its initial installation and can absorb water when exposed. Ensuring proper basement ventilation , installing a vapor barrier, and controlling water exposure are all important tasks.

No, it’s not legal for unlicensed individuals to conduct structural calculations for buildings or building repairs. Not only do licensing requirements prevent DIYers from tackling this project, but mistakes can also be extremely dangerous and put your property and anyone inside or near it at risk of severe injury or even death. You should always hire a licensed and certified local structural engineer to make structural calculations.
