Get matched with top engineer structural pros in New Castle, DE

"Mina was friendly and very professional. He addressed all structural issues and gave great, detailed advice. I highly recommend Kiro Engineering."

"I contacted three big-name companies to access a series of basement wall cracks. Two came and proposed differing actions. Neither solution, nor costs, appealed to me. I needed expert engineering guidance. Researched several candidates, and selected Mina Mikaeel. I informed him of relevant details about the house, and of my meeting with the basement people. He conducted a thorough assessment of the structure and the land grading. During that process, he advised me on the causes of the cracks and suggestions on how I can easily prevent more. He cited the pros and cons of Basement Repair companies, and then explained â with evidenceâ that my situation was not as serious as those folks led me to believe. Mr. Mikaeel then defined a corrective action plan: citing the necessary actions, the equipment needed, cuts to be made, the sequence, and specific materials for sealing. He also recommended qualified people, and offered to come back to assess their work. The work was completed. I have peace of mind (and a warranty on that work)! Hiring Mr. Mikaeel was the best decision, and investment, that I made on this project. He has my highest recommendation. Thank you, Mina."

"Arius is a life saver... literally. I had just purchased a new home and was having some renovations done. Simple as they may have seemed, it involved moving a door in the hallway a few feet. Had I not called Arius in for a review, the contractor I had hired (who was a great GC and very professional to deal with by the way) would have made a grave error which would have resulted in major structural integrity failure costing tens of thousands of dollars to repair. The Arius team was quick, responsive and one of the best experiences I had in dealing with contractors and engineers."

"Andrew has great integrity and overall I am happy with his work!! I highly recommend him!!"

"Foundation Experts determined the problem was much greater than current homeowner thought. They brought in a structural engineer to thoroughly examine the foundation and wrote up a detailed report, including extensive photographs, of the problem. They gave a written proposal for potential work to repair the problem according to township code. All of their work (three separate visits plus three detailed reports) was done in an astonishingly compressed time period, which enabled us to meet our required deadline to attempt to continue with purchase of the house, depending on current homeowners willingness to either repair the issues to our satisfaction or give us a purchase credit of the amount proposed by Foundation Experts. Had we not engaged their help, we could have unknowingly bought a house that needs approximately $40,000 worth of structural repair.

"Shortly after buying our home we started getting water in our basement after heavy rains. After researching various services we decided to explore structural engineering. We made the right choice with Area Construction. The owner did a thorough assessment, created a plan to address the problem, and efficiently completed the job. The team was dependable and trustworthy, kept us updated with any changes that were needed as work progressed. Three years later and our basement is still dry as a bone."

"These guys are AWSOME. Work is done correctly and on time. Always answered my questions and help me understand what’s going on and the process. Couldn’t be happier with their work and customer service."
