This COMPANY Is For You If…

You're dealing with something that affects how the house carries weight, not just how it looks.

Common reasons homeowners call us include:

  • Floors that feel uneven, bouncy, or sagging
  • Cracks that keep coming back after drywall repair
  • A load-bearing wall that was altered or removed
  • Beams or posts that are undersized, damaged, or failing
  • Structural issues discovered during a remodel
  • Framing damage from water, fire, or age
  • Crawl space framing problems (not just moisture)

If the concern is structural, this is the right place to start.

Contractor vs. Engineer

(Important to Understand)

Structural repairs usually involve two different roles, and confusing them causes delays and wasted money.

What we do

  • Evaluate structural framing conditions on site
  • Open walls or floors safely to verify what's actually there
  • Install temporary shoring and support as needed
  • Repair or replace beams, posts, joists, and framing
  • Perform the physical structural repair work

What engineers do

  • Perform load calculations
  • Design repair solutions when required
  • Provide stamped drawings for permitting and code compliance

We are not engineers, and we don't pretend to be.
When engineering is required, we coordinate with a licensed structural engineer and build exactly to plan.

Not every structural repair needs engineering. If it does, we'll tell you upfront.

Do I Need an Engineer?

This is one of the most common questions we get.

The honest answer: sometimes.

Minor framing corrections may not require engineering

Major load changes, beam replacements, or code-driven repairs often do

We don't guess.

If engineering is required, work pauses until it's handled properly.

Ballpark Cost

Structural engineering typically runs $1500–$12,000 depending on scope and complexity

How Long

Expect 1–3 weeks for site visit, calculations, and stamped drawings

What You Get

Stamped drawings, load calculations, and repair specifications for permits

Important to Know

Engineering fees, when required, are separate and paid directly to the engineer.

What the Process Looks Like

1

Call or schedule an estimate

2

On-site evaluation of framing and structure

3
