"Tal Mechaly was extremely useful when we hired him and his people to design and rebuild our new kitchen and laundry room. Tal helped us select the new stunning marble slab for the new island that he implemented in the design and the gorgeous chandelier above it because the island that he designed for us included table as well. Tal Mechaly was amazing at selecting all the paint colors combinations and with his design… he was able to pull it all together as one piece of art kitchen. Tal Mechaly was very easygoing person to work with, with excellent creativity skills and his thinking outside of the box ability was beyond believes."

"If I could give Ramin Zargari, owner of RZ Engineering, an A+ rating, I would do so in a heartbeat. This is the fourth remodel I've undertaken on our various properties, so I know the highs and lows of the process. When I find someone who provides excellent work and customer service, I am happy to spread the word. Here's my experience. I wanted to remove the wall between the kitchen and dining room to open the space on our two-story townhouse, but the wall was load bearing. I had a hard time finding someone willing to come out to the Palos Verdes area, especially since this was a "small" job. I found a recommendation for RZ Engineering on Angie's List, so I gave him a call. I connected with Ramin right away and told him what I needed. He asked me a lot of questions regarding my project, and I held my breath when I told him the property was on the Palos Verdes Peninsula since he was located in the Calabasas area. He said he was fine with driving to the property, and we set a date and time for his inspection. He arrived at the appointment at the scheduled time and met with my contractor and me and together we went through everything. It took over two hours for him to inspect how everything was connected and to make complete measurements, etc. He is extremely knowledgeable, thorough, and trustworthy, and obviously takes great pride in his work. He told me that he would have the drawings and calculations to me the following week, and he did. He even made himself available numerous times to the contractor and me to make sure we understood and completed the project correctly. His price was excellent, as was his professionalism. I will use him for every project that I have from this point on. Thank you Angie's List for recommending a true professional!"

"Martin and his team were so professional and knowledgeable. They worked quickly and were incredibly clean and polite. Martin helped me create a beautiful and safe environment for my business. His knowledge of codes and requirements is unmatched, and his creative problem-solving was what made my project a reality. He communicates in a very timely manner. I never felt like I was abandoned on my project and I always knew what was happening, and what was coming next. He definitely wasn't the cheapest quote, but the final invoice was right on track with what the original quote was. When all was said and done, to get this same work done by another contractor, it would have cost the same or more...and the work was so beautifully done that it was beyond worth it! He is the guy you go to when you want things done RIGHT. I would HIGHLY recommend Martin and his team for any project. He will make sure it is done right!"

"Fire victims: Beware of construction company tactics hindering your recovery by delaying project completion & prevent you from obtaining the Certificate of Occupancy that is required to obtain a refinance loan after a fire. Please verify credentials of anyone working on your project is fully licensed with the Contractors State License Board, provide their legal name (not an alias), & operate from a legitimate business address rather than a P.O. box. Avoid contractors who rely on subcontractors, as they may attempt to shift blame. Never take loan or financing advice from them. Insist on written contracts & keep detailed email records of all communications & agreements. Make sure they comply with state & federal laws, especially asbestos. In my case, Joseph Sastiel abandoned my project for the loan to default. Thank GOD I am still in my home to defend myself & my family. Finally, our trial is 12/1/2025. Despite his attorney?s threats to appeal, I look forward to seeking justice."

FAQs for engineer structural projects in Oak View, CA

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.
