"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!!"

"5++ stars! My home's exterior was cracking due to a poor job prior and drainage issues. Tom and Adam and the team not only gave me peace of mind moving forward with drainage, put in gutters, and re-did the entire exterior of my home (stained wood and stucco), but made it beyond beautiful!! They were communicative, timely, so easy to work with, and the end product is gorgeous. I would recommend them to anyone who needs a construction project done and can't wait to use them again on my next project!!"

Our company history provides you with four generations of construction experience.\n\nIt began in the early 1950’s when Guy La Rocque’s grandfather ran a successful steel and concrete company and, up until his un-timely death, Guy’s father owned and operated one of Southern California’s largest fence companies. Guy La Rocque acquired 100% ownership of La Rocque Bros Co. in 1979 and in 1981, changed the name to La Rocque Roofing.\n\nIn 1984 the family decided to incorporate the company, hence the name change to La Rocque Better Roofs, Inc.\n\nCurrently the company employs two generations of the La Rocque family with no intentions of stopping there. The reputation that we have built over the years is something we understand. It takes a great deal of effort and a daily dedication to our employees, clients, distributors, and manufacturers. We are constantly upgrading our company and looking toward the future. One of Guy’s philosophies is the only thing constant with our company is change. For him, this company is more than just a job, it is a hobby, a passion, and testimony of what was, what is and what will be. The La Rocque family considers themselves blessed and credits their success to God.\n\nColossians 3:23-24\n\nVisit Us online to request your free estimate: http://larocquebetterroofs.com/request-a-quote

FAQs for engineer structural projects in San Bernardino, 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.
