"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."

"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%."

Experience: I am an NCARB registered architect and a member of the American Institute of Architects, a LEED AP (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design - Acredited Professional) and a proud supporter of the Institute for Classical Architecture & Art. I received a B.S. in Business Administration from Beaver College (NKA Arcadia University) with a specialty in Economic Systems and Financial Analysis. After a number of years in the financial industry, I finally decided to pursue my passion for architecture and entered the New Jersey Institute of Technology and, in 2000, I received a Master’s degree in Architectural Design. Since graduating, I have been practicing architecture with a large part of that experience devoted to the home renovation and custom home design industry. Along the way, I have also held numerous positions and performed work in the commercial, retail, institutional, government/military and industrial markets. I have worked for global A/E firms, small boutique firms and numerous firms in between. It is this rich and diverse background that affords me the ability to look at your project from multiple angles, which, in turn, helps you to determine the best course of action for your project. Design Approach: I have a hands-on, collaborative approach to design. I value client input and enjoy working together with property owners to arrive at design ideas that serve their environmental, cultural, spatial and budgetary needs while paying specific attention to existing conditions such as the building's design, physical and structural layout and those all-important views. I truly believe that everyone should have the ability to work with an architect and so, from schematic design and design development all the way through to construction, I try to create a feeling of client empowerment where communication is always open and immediate. I believe this philosophy leads to great architecture and a successful project for all.

FAQs for engineer structural projects in Irvington, 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.
