2 years of experience

Veteran owned business with 28 years of experience performing a variety of repairs with an emphasis on quality. We can assist with surface restoration and repair of most surfaces (furniture, counter tops, cracked or spongy bathtubs, just about anything) mitigating the need for replacement. Bottom line, we can repair or replace just about anything and are ready to help!

"This was one of the worst experiences we have had. We contracted (verbally) with him in May after we received a quote for our projects of $650. He /his assistant did a few projects. He suggested that they come and complete other projects as they had time. We requested they wait until a later date, which was agreeable to them. Once we contacted them again, there was a complete lack of communication and focus on our project. I have text messages that show that he was unresponsive to our communications time and time again. Once he did contact us, he had a huge list of life issues, which were not acceptable as they were his problem not ours (as he agreed). He then set up a final time which he guaranteed but then consequently canceled due to another personal need. I asked for a final itemized bill. When I received it, it was almost the amount he initially quoted. However, the major projects that were quoted were never done. He refused to accommodate this in our bill."

FAQs for engineer structural projects in Grand Rapids, MI

The timeframe for installing an LVL beam depends on your project's complexity and scope. Factors affecting the timeline include whether walls need removal, the beam's size, and whether electrical or plumbing modifications are necessary. Your contractor should provide a specific timeline estimate based on your home's unique circumstances and the specific requirements of your installation.

Financing options are available for structural improvements like LVL beam installations. Many homeowners use home equity loans or lines of credit, often offering favorable interest rates for home improvement projects. Some contractors partner with financing companies to provide payment plans directly. When gathering quotes, ask potential contractors about financing partnerships they maintain or recommendations for lenders experienced with home renovation projects.

LVL beams become necessary when you need to span greater distances without support columns or when supporting substantial loads. Traditional lumber can't span more than eight to 12 feet without support, while LVL beams can extend up to 30 feet. LVL provides the necessary strength to create truly open concept spaces or support upper floors without columns. Consulting with a structural engineer helps determine the appropriate beam type for your specific requirements.

Beyond the core installation, the budget for build-back costs totals $400 to $2,000, depending on the extent of affected finishes. If foundation reinforcement becomes necessary, allocate $1,000 to $3,000 per pier. Permit fees ranging from $100 to $500 should also be anticipated. For installations affecting utilities, factor in electrician rates of $50 to $130 per hour and plumber rates of $45 to $200 per hour if rerouting is required.
