"From the get go I was impressed with Ed's engineering knowledge, his ability to assess structural and materials issues, and his ability to explain the necessary procedures for an optimal outcome. Unlike other contractors who might avoid the inconveniences of working on an historic mid 19th century house, Ed welcomed the opportunity and took immense pride in stabilizing and preparing it for the next 100 plus years. His crew was skilled, punctual, and very pleasant taking great care in the construction and clean-up process. Ed was also very generous with his expertise on maintaining the house, assuring us that he could be called upon for council or to address any future concerns. His company is far beyond professional - they are house whisperers!"

"We are very pleased with the job Steve and his son did for us. We had to wait a bit longer than desired for the work to start but he was devoted to our project once work began. They completely gutted our 1970’s-era living room and hallway. They removed two partial walls opening up the space, and fixed structural problems discovered once the walls were open. At every step along the way Steve met with us, answered questions, reassured us, and honored our requests that may have differed with his ideas. If there were design considerations we discussed them and came to an agreement. Just his patience with us in selecting a new front door is remarkable. Steve thought “outside the box” when removing an old through the wall air conditioner. He found scrap siding that matched our siding and color-matched paint to the weathered siding so that the new area is not noticed. A family of birds were nesting in the old air conditioner, and he made a nest and moved the eggs so he could complete the job. The parents found the eggs and we saw the small bird first leave the nest. We would definitely have Steve and his crew do additional work for us."

"After hurricane sandy in 2012 a lot of people in Brooklyn and  Long Island got flooded a lot of home owners received flood damages or  lost their property due to Hurricane Sandy... I am living on Cony Island Seagate  area at that time I was home with my Family and how a remember the water came up to my house and flooded my basement and first floor of my house... I was very scared and desperate.... We basically lost everything at the first and basement floor... <br /> We have received some help from FEMA like every homeowner in that area  but the rest was huge loss from our pockets... <br /> We found structureline based on recommendations and we started to do renovation...Nicholas the General Manager helped us out to apply for a small loan so we could begin the  renovation...We needed to do a complete  house renovation .... <br /> They took off the walls  in the basement and 1st floor, they did mold disinfection, replaced all drywall's, wiring, boiler, windows, doors, siding etc.. <br /> They did remodeling on the master bathroom from the first floor and kitchen, they did a wonderful job...We love their new engineered Hardwood floor and the new design of the bathroom with the big bathtub and shower cabinet ... The price we spend ed was a little higher than we were   expected because we did some design work in the living room and Kitchen but for sure it worth it....If Someone will ask me for a recommendation for sure I will recommend Structureline because they helped me out at that time ....Thanks"

"I contacted Peter of Pantec Engineering regarding a couple of items. First, to review the structural integrity of my newly constructed Brooklyn condo recently purchased, which came back fine. The second was following a flood in my finished basement after a tropical storm in June 2021. Peter visited my property on a Saturday afternoon and conducted a thorough investigation of the plumbing in my condo including reviewing the building plans. He uncovered a major oversight on the how the plumbing was installed. Topline, the water from the roof was being exited by way of sump pump, which is a significant deviation to code. Peter followed up with a comprehensive and detailed report which I was able to take to my board to gain financial support to fix the problem. He made himself available throughout the process including phone calls, texts, and joining a board condo meeting. He offered consultative recommendations with a patient and professional demeanor. He even was able to recommend vendors to fix the problem after my condo’s management company failed to supply vendors willing to perform the work. The plumbing was fixed less than 24 hours before Ida hit NYC and I was able to prevent what would have been catastrophic damage to my property. I highly recommend Peter for a professional independent assessment that requires expertise of a structural engineer."

"Excellent inspector, very thorough, and not afraid to dig below the surface to see what might be hiding. Definitely a good guy to have on hand for looking at an old Brooklyn building. If you're into history and engineering, he's also got a lot of knowledge about why things the are the way they are in different types of buildings from different eras. Very interesting to talk to."

"I had a great experience planning the design of my second story addition!! The architect was great at capturing my needs and vision and provided me with suggestions to maximize the space and make it functional. Her suggestions were modern and gave the space a clean cut feel while making it cozy and inviting. She also modified a few things upon request to ensure I stuck to budget without losing my vision for the space. The whole process was explained from beginning to end with timelines and things to expect. I would totally recommend!!!"

Fusion was able to use tile we had on had for the floor tile which saved us money on the overall job. <br /> 2, New tile floor is a significant improvement over the original tile floor in both look and functionality. <br /> 3. Fusion contractor explained each step of the renovation in detail so we would understand what was being done but why. <br /> 4.

FAQs for engineer structural projects in Kings Park, NY

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.
