Services

We conduct non-destructive structural investigations of existing structures for your peace of mind or real estate transactions. Our reports focus on trying to identify observable indicators of movement, settlement, or distress in the primary structural components. Within the context of the standard of care typical for a structure's era of construction, we look at visible indicators to help property owners and buyers understand the general structural condition and determine a practical path forward.

We provide the structural calculations and plans necessary to facilitate the building permit process for Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and residential additions. We believe the best results come from a collaborative approach; we work closely with contractors to develop feasible, cost-effective structural solutions that bring remodel and addition goals to life while meeting the required design parameters.

• Calculations & Plans: Structural plans and calculations to support building permit applications for new or converted spaces.

• Contractor Collaboration: We prioritize working with your team to help ensure that structural designs are practical and efficient for the construction phase.

• Remodels & Conversions: Structural planning for basement apartments, detached units, and footprint expansions.

New construction ranges from CMU and concrete to steel or wood. We have experience with foundations for fabricated metal buildings. For existing buildings, we provide due diligence observation for existing buildings, and engineering for remodels and additions.

We've worked since 2001 with various log home companies (such as Pioneer Log Homes) and with log builders to provide engineered plans for new log homes. Please call us for additions and remodels for log homes. They are a unique challenge that should be engineered by someone who knows log home construction and engineering.
