At LEVEL, we are committed to common sense, real-world solutions. We pioneered LEVEL because, after years spent exploring all disciplines of civil and structural engineering in the building industry, we continually encountered the missing fundamentals in our own trade. These lost elements of service culture & exceptional business practice inevitably cost owners & entities untold stress and frustration; contractors lost time & money, realtors & lenders were left unable to satisfy their client's needs. We concluded that our capacity for A&E services could function at a higher level, thus, LEVEL Engineering & Inspections was founded. We serve your interests & provide knowledgeable, expert design, inspections, analysis, forensics, recommendations, and reporting. Whether your need is for permitting, forensics; new, remodel, or repair engineering designs; foundation problems; civil or architecture - let us help you navigate your Civil, Commercial, Residential Structural Engineering needs.

"Gang is super. He’s very knowledgeable and personable. He talking through all my questions and concerns and helped me sort through all the details to arrive at a well reasoned conclusion for what needs to be done next."

Founded in 1989 by Dean Henninger, D.W. Henninger Construction has been recognized as a leading builder of custom homes and remodeling projects. Acting as a General Contractor, the entire Henninger team is known to exceed client expectations, leading to a steady stream of testimonials and referral clients. Over the past two decades, Henninger has managed projects in California: kitchens, bathrooms, room additions, entire home renovation, even complete construction of homes. Regardless of scope, Henninger approaches each project with the same foundation of principals: strong design aesthetics, comprehensive product options, sound project management, and a commitment to craftsmanship. Design Aesthetics: With 20+ years of Bay Area experience, Henninger understands the many architectural quirks unique to Bay Area communities, making it easy to elaborate and integrate with established design aesthetics. Product Options: Henninger is truly unique in being a single-source stop for design, remodeling, and product resources. Cabinetry, countertops, appliances, and plumbing fixtures are all available options for your project, and Henninger assists with selection, delivery, even vendor communication if there’s a problem. Project Management: Project management is essential to delivering a good customer experience. Henninger prioritizes project management to the same degree as design and crafting. Henninger is unique in using progress billing — a system that only charges for services following completion rather than pre-paying weeks or months before it starts. Craftsmanship: Henninger’s team of carpenters bring the best combination of experience and expertise to the table, but they offer much more than technical proficiency — by working with true craftsmen, Henninger projects balance design and functionality for maximum results on each and every project, regardless of scope. Our service areas: Oakland, Pleasanton, Livermore, Walnut Creek, Fremont, and surrounding cities. Projects in San Francisco and San Jose are also feasible — contact us for more information.

FAQs for engineer structural projects in San Jose, CA

The right type of engineer depends on the house you’re looking to build. Most builders work with structural engineers to ensure safety of the structure itself. For builds beyond a typical home up to 3,000 square feet, you might need a construction engineer.

Engineers work in a variety of fields, specializing in anything from structural to electrical work. Some work independently and are hired by large construction companies for complex projects. Others form engineering firms that oversee the entire construction project. They spend time on construction sites, but also work in offices to make calculations and prepare recommendations.

All 50 states require licenses for building engineers. Don’t work with a professional who doesn’t have an active license or doesn’t want to share their licensing number with you. It’s a crucial step in making sure you’re working with a reputable expert.

When you build an extension, you most likely need a structural engineer. They’ll work with the builder to make sure the space is safe, but also make sure that your addition follows the right zoning laws.

Loft conversions generally call for an engineer. The project will include working with beams and trusses that most likely hold up your roof or other parts of your home. You need a pro who can calculate the impact of making any changes.

Structural engineering is technically a subset of civil engineering. Most commonly in residential projects, civil engineers are accountable for sewage, water, and drainage, while structural engineers focus on the structure and its integrity.

Structural and architectural engineering are very similar. Both work with architects to make sure the designs don’t just look good but will hold up. The former is typically involved early on, making initial calculations. The latter is more closely involved with the architect, carrying a design from initial concept to actual build.

Hiring a structural engineer costs between $300 and $650 for most homeowners. The price is typically fixed at the beginning of the engagement. Your budget may need to range upwards of $1,250 if the pro doesn’t just provide an initial evaluation but partners with you throughout the construction.
