Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about structural inspections, engineering evaluations,
and residential plan design.

Do I need a structural engineer or a contractor?

A contractor can repair structural issues, but a licensed structural engineer provides an independent evaluation of the problem. An engineer identifies the root cause and recommends the appropriate solution before repairs begin.

What happens during a structural inspection?

A licensed structural engineer will evaluate the area of your house that you have concerns about. This could include the foundation, framing, load-bearing elements, and other visible elements of your home. You will receive professional guidance on whether repairs are necessary and what the next steps should be.

Can you help if I want to remove a wall?

Yes. We determine whether the wall is load-bearing and provide engineered solutions if structural support is required. Structural drawings can also be provided for permitting when needed.

How long does a structural inspection take?

Most residential structural inspections take 60–90 minutes, depending on the size of the property and the complexity of the concern.

Will I receive a written report?

If documentation is required, we can provide a written engineering report. Stamped structural drawings for contractors, permitting, and/or real estate transactions are also available if required.

Do you work with homeowners or contractors?

Both. We regularly work with homeowners, builders, real estate professionals, and contractors to evaluate structural conditions and provide engineering guidance.
