"Erinn was my initial contact and he gave a very through and fair estimate. We had structural work done to support floor joists and large beams under the garage that needed replacing. Ernesto and his team, Julio, Salvatore and Gilder worked tirelessly to complete the work and were respectful, punctual, informative and good humoured throughout the entire process. I would not hesitate to use them again or recommend them to others. A really great company!!"

"We recently got turned down by the city of riverside on getting a roof permit. After many calls trying to find an engineer we came across new beginnings engineering. We gave them a call and Jonathon was here by the next day to inspect the roof. That same evening Trina sent us a letter that we could present to the city. Our roof contractor was able to get the approval from the city with no more issues. If I could give them 10 stars I would. We had a great experience working with them. They are quick and efficient; I cannot recommend them enough"

"I've had the recent good fortune to work with Tolga on renovation projects in Los Angeles and Manhattan Beach for which I am the Architect. The success of renovation work relies heavily on collaborative and creative structural engineering in order to realize interior and exterior architecture goals. Tolga instinctively understood my design goals and in a very professional manner he crafted solutions to bring them to reality. Many thanks Tolga. I look forward to our next collaboration."

"We have been working with Sam on our home project to take down a load bearing wall and we are pleased with his work. I liked that he enjoyed small projects and the city engineer approved the plans the first time they were submitted. He also has come by to inspect the work our contractor has performed and advised the corrections that needed to be made so our home would be structurally sound. I highly recommend."

"Structural Engineer Ehab contacted me about my residential property inquiry. He had already reviewed my property and the general situation I was inquiring about when I called him back. We spoke to me about his concerns with the project and answered all my questions over the phone. He was excellent to work with. Professional & Knowledgeable. Would highly recommend reaching out for technical issues concerning residential engineering. The reason he wasn't hired was that he provided feedback that dissuaded us from taking on a costly project that would not have achieved our stated goals. I will definitely reach out to Ehab in the future prior to beginning any major residential addition or remodel."

FAQs for engineer structural projects in Long Beach, CA

You should replace floor joists as soon as you see clear signs of structural trouble—sagging floors, wide wall cracks, uneven door frames, wet or rotting wood, persistent squeaks, or windows that no longer latch. Tilted or sinking supports in the crawl space are another red flag. If you notice any of these signs, call a pro right away to keep your home’s structure safe.

If the joists are exposed from below, a pro can swap them out without touching the finished floor above. In an unfinished basement or crawl space, you’ll often see the joists and can easily reach them. When insulation, subflooring, or finished flooring blocks access, the crew must remove these materials before repairs can begin.

Sistering allows a pro to reinforce a cracked or undersized joist without tearing up the entire floor. The contractor slowly raises the frame, then fastens a new joist snugly against the damaged one to share the load. When done correctly, sistering restores full structural strength and keeps the floor level without the cost of a complete replacement.

Floor joists installed correctly in a stable environment can last for 100 years or more, often outlasting the house itself. However, termite damage, moisture, leaks, and other problems can significantly reduce a floor's lifespan. For instance, if the floor is exposed to consistent moisture, you'll likely need to replace the joists every 20 to 30 years.

Homeowners' insurance covers floor joist damage resulting from sudden and accidental events, such as fire, windstorm, or water damage from a burst pipe. It will not cover repairs resulting from gradual deterioration, poor maintenance, or termite infestations. Review your insurance policy and consult your provider to verify the conditions that guarantee full coverage. Doing so ensures you are fully aware of your responsibilities and can plan your repair work with complete confidence.

Floor joists are essential structural components that provide a stable foundation for your home. They directly transfer the weight of floors, furniture, and occupants to the foundation, ensuring stability and a safe living environment. Without these robust beams, the structure would face compromised load distribution, leading to potential safety hazards and costly repairs. Proper installation and maintenance are crucial for long-term durability and safety.
