"My initial review was somewhat marginal, but now several years later I will say that the reinforcement has been perfect, and they did eventually provide the engineered drawings that were promised shortly after the project completion. Only hitch was with the length of the steel, which they did correct by welding on tabs to each end. Ultimately it was a good job and completed in one day. Would definitely use them again if I needed to reinforce a structure."

"I hired Structural Workshop to confirm that the wall around my kitchen was not load-bearing, since I wanted to take it down for a renovation. This very simple job turned out to be a bit of a nightmare because the manager of my condo building is both incompetent and dishonest, but the team at Structural Workshop was super patient throughout. Akash came out twice to survey my condo and wrote 3(!) letters in the end to satisfy the powers that be. He and the office staff were also very communicative, prompt, and reliable. They did everything they possibly could to help. I'd hire them again in a heartbeat!"

"Cigano identified a number of important changes to my architectural drawings to strengthen my structure (a car port). The changes recommended and implemented to my plans ensured my Town would issue a building permit. The Town had rejected my initial drawings and required its review and approval by a structural engineer or architect. Cigano really came through and its owner was easy to work with and highly professional. I would highly recommend Cigano."

"Julian delivered exceptional engineering analysis and design work for my residential gut rehab. He was consistently available, willing to help, and brought strong technical expertise to every discussion. His vision for an open‑wall layout led to the installation of a structural beam that completely transformed the home’s flow and created a true open‑concept space we never thought possible. He worked efficiently, communicated clearly, and carried himself with total professionalism. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to upgrade or reimagine their living space."

Yes we where very upset   and we decided to not work with that company.. We called again the company's that we received the bids and we asked them to rebid the job and we asked them to specify all the details that will be included and witch not..  After we received the new Bids Structurelne Construction Has the most accurate bid they also specify all the details even the garbage removal...  My husband sad that he will go with Structure Construction  and I was agree with.. <br /> It took approximately 2 month for them to finish the Remodeling In our 4 bedroom House but  we are very satisfied with the results .. <br /> They helped us to update the old 2 Bath, replacing all ceramic tiles and bathtubs.. <br /> We did replaced all flooring in the house we did update our old kitchen and closets... <br /> and walls Restoration, new moldings  and painting.   Now all looks great and we are happy with the changes we did in the house.. <br /> Hope i will call them soon for some exterior work  and I am expecting to receive a good quote ..

"Wes and his crew did a great job and delivered exactly as promised. The 1st floor support is substantial and structured in a way that ensured no access or usage of the basement were limited. They had to work above and around my boiler and protected it very well while installing new beams and posts. The heart was rebuilt and new tile installed that extended into the firebox. New trim was installed around the tile that resulted in a sharp and pleasing finish. We are very please with the work and the outcome. All details were addressed and all concerns and questions answered. The crew was respectful of our home and kept debris and waste safely controlled. Wes is a genius!"

"I should have done this review long ago. Tony is the best at inspecting houses and I used his services twice. I wish he had been available when the third house I bid on and purchased was inspected. He would have saved me a lot of trouble and headaches unlike the fraudulent House Masters. Please do yourself a favor and contract an engineer such as Tony. You will thank yourself for it down the line. I recommend their services 100%."

FAQs for engineer structural projects in Cedar Knolls, NJ

To determine if a wall is load-bearing, start by checking your home’s original plans or asking a structural engineer. Exterior walls always carry weight, but interior ones only do if they sit over a beam or run perpendicular to floor joists. If a wall lines up with posts in the basement or falls directly under the roof ridge, assume it’s load-bearing and call a professional before attempting to remove it with a sledgehammer.

Calculating the wall load and sizing the beam must be performed by experts to ensure structural safety. You need a structural engineer to evaluate all load aspects and determine the proper beam dimensions. A professional engineer performs precise calculations and advises on any necessary enhancements, such as larger footings for support. An inspector then verifies that the revised structure meets all safety and code regulations before the finishing work begins.

Hiring a structural engineer is essential for ensuring your home remains structurally sound during any major renovation. Their responsibility is to deliver expert assessments and design recommendations for load-bearing modifications. The average cost to hire a structural engineer is $500, with rates ranging from $350 to $800. Consulting a licensed, experienced engineer guarantees that every structural project, whether constructing a new home or remodeling an existing one, is completed safely and efficiently.

Almost all load-bearing wall removals require a permit as they support everything above it, and building departments want proof that the new beam can handle the weight. Pulling a permit triggers plan review and inspections that confirm the work meets local code and safety standards. Skipping this step can lead to fines or being forced to rebuild later, so have your contractor pull the permit before work starts.

Removing a load-bearing wall to create an entrance for a carport or covered patio is a task that comes with defined cost implications. This modification requires extra structural adjustments to ensure safety and proper integration with the adjoining space. When you convert a wall into an entryway, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. The additional work required for this conversion reinforces the home’s integrity and ensures compliance with applicable building codes.
