"I’m a realtor and I had a client selling their house who needed a structural engineer to evaluate something. I called Jendusa because they are so well respected that I knew their report would answer and questions the buyer’s had. I called and Venu met me at the home. He was extremely knowledgeable and went above and beyond to answer questions. I highly recommend them!"

"Dan from Construct Boss recently remodeled our 30 year old bathroom and brought it from hideous to absolutely beautiful. Dan was respectful of both our time schedule and our budget. He made informed suggestions when we didn't quite know what to choose and he walked us through every selection and procedure. He was skilled, professional and a genuinely nice guy. The end result was better than I ever could have imagined. He will now forever be our go-to guy for our future projects. If you're looking for an honest guy to do a fabulous job, Dan at Construct Boss is your man."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

It is not recommended to cut or drill into LVL (laminated veneer lumber) beams. As major structural components of a home, their composite structure can be compromised by alterations, which can weaken them and lead to cracking over time. If you must make modifications to an LVL beam, it is crucial to consult a structural engineer or general contractor first. A professional can advise on whether it's safe and provide specifics on the appropriate bit size, depth, and directionality for any necessary drilling.

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

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

The essential difference between an architect and an engineer is that architects typically focus more on the aesthetic design of buildings, although not without consideration for the structural integrity of the building. Engineers focus more on the structural, technical, and practical aspects of whether and how an architectural design can be built as drawn. You may need to hire both types of professionals if you’re designing and building a new home.

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.
