Homer Glen, IL·
Structural Engineer
"Thank goodness we found Faron & Associates, Inc. Our 97 year old home had structural problems that were out of the expertise of the 9 contractors that we had contacted. After explaining our dilemma to Home Advisor, they recommended Faron & Associates. Communication with Michael Faron was immediate. He returned our phone call the same day. We agreed to meet the next day and evaluate our problem. Mike arrived the next morning right on time and took measurements and pictures. He said that there were several ways to solve the problem and would prepare two alternative estimates. We received the estimates within the next week accompanied by a recommendation for contractors that could handle a very complex job. Mike was always available to answer questions and attended our meeting with the chosen contractor. Work was started within the week. Everything was done professionally and timely. The job turned out beyond our wildest expectations. The result was perfect and done start to finish in about 10 days with little disruption to our daily routine. Weâ ve already recommended Mike to a friend seeking a structural engineer. Thank you Michael Faron."

As a part of the remodel, we want to remove a wall to expand the footprint of the kitchen/informal entertainment area (which is currently a bedroom). We have 24' rafters/beams and the wall sits adjacent to that. We suspect (but don't know) that it's a load bearing wall. In that same area, we want to expose our stairwell that goes upstairs. The location of the stairs will be dependent on space. We have measurements and drawings available (not professionally) and the platt of survey. Given the cost of the kitchen remodel as it is - we are hoping the keep the costs down with this part.Project Location: Chicago, IL Date: 01/22/24Architectural drawings: NoType of Project: Structural repair on existing structureComment: I work for a small business that needs a wall cracks repair estimate.
