"Everything was done on schedule and in a professional manner. I would have preferred if the same engineer did all the inspections. A concise report including photographs were completed and submitted to me within 24 hours after each visit."

"We recently had our kitchen remodeled by Avery Construction. Nothing but positive things to say about the entire experience. The cabinet installers were meticulous with every detail. Very professional organization to do business with. Rob Olson was our original point of contact and he tried his best to accommodate all of our wishes. We truly love our kitchen and couldn’t be happier with the entire project. We highly recommend this business to anyone looking for top quality."

"This company should receive a 10 star rating but I am only able to do 5 stars. Steve , owner of the company did a home inspection for us before our one year warranty on the house expired. Since the purchase of our home everything went wrong with the builder and we had Steve come out and do the inspection. Steve is very professional and very knowledgeable and understands building codes and adheres to the codes not the builder. He knows exactly what to look for and we felt a sense of relief after he came to do the inspection. The office Manager Sheri is his wife and was very kind and helpful. You won’t go wrong hiring this company over any other home inspector. Thanks to you both for all your help!"

"The design of the addition went very well with very few snags. Eric made a couple of visits to our home and discussed the many options available to build our custom addition. He went over aesthetics, cost options, materials, etc. When the construction began, he answered questions from the contractor about the design. He also inspected the construction, as part of an additional service, and provided detailed reports to the building contractor about items that were missing or not done correctly per plan. Overall, we are pleased with the design and feel that it enhances our home in both  appearance and functionality. G2 gets our recommendation without hesitation. <br /> <br /> <br />"

"We recently finished a project with Saxton Remodeling on our home in Golden. Neil and his team were great, and very easy to work with. The task was to convert our 1970’s built, compartmentalized home into an open concept with a newly designed kitchen. The project included tearing out several loadbearing walls and adding beams and structural supports to carry the load, adding skylights, relocating electrical wiring, adding recessed lighting, re-wiring electrical for the new kitchen layout, new drywall and insulation, and replacing/refinishing wood floors. Neil was on budget and on time. He kept in constant communication, and made it clear to us that it was important to him that we were completely happy with the job. As with any project of this size there were a few changes/issues that came up during the job, and Neil worked with us to make sure that we got what we wanted. And he was always fast and responsive when we had issues/questions. We searched for 2 years for a contractor and had a couple of bad experiences along the way. So, we are very happy that Neil was recommended to us, and we will be working with him on some additional renovations in our home. I would recommend Saxton Remodeling to anyone looking for a contractor that they can trust to care about their project and follow through until the end."

FAQs for engineer structural projects in Saint Petersburg, FL

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.
