"Our experience was amazing!!! From initial call, to estimate, to contract, and scheduling Andrea and Sergio were efficient, kind, and professional! Sergio arrived when he said he would and he and his partner immediately got to work covering and protecting the areas where the stucco work would be done. I so appreciated their care. Then, they got to work. Over the course of two days they got our stucco back to looking perfect! They did an incredible job! They matched the stucco texture beautifully and blended it so well! We have used three different stucco contractors for both interior and exterior work with subpar results. Sergio and his partner did such incredible work that you cannot even tell we removed a window and installed a new window. We are so thankful to them for their amazing work and grateful to have excellent craftsmen to help us maintain our stucco!"

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

You should pick steel for your new support beam for a few reasons. While steel is more expensive than other materials, such as laminated veneer lumber or glulam, it offers the following benefits:

  • Fire-resistant

  • Unaffected by pests

  • Longer-lasting

  • Stronger against water damage (when galvanized against rust)

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

Yes. Foundation walls are always load-bearing.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

Structural engineers typically conduct inspections during a home sale or renovation, looking for signs of structural damage in various structures throughout the building, such as load-bearing walls, joists, beams, roofing trusses, foundations, and chimneys. Some of the warning signs that structural engineers check for include:

  • Dry rot

  • Infestation

  • Shifting or cracking foundations

  • Erosion

  • Water damage

  • Sagging, shifting, or damaged walls, ceilings, or roofing support
