Driveway install, yard install , drainage work.

"Cristman Enterprises were fantastic. We needed our yard regraded and seeded. They were professional, promptly communicated the status of the work, and were overall very easy to work with. We will be hiring them again for our future landscaping projects."

Craig's Mowing and landscaping is the premier Capital District landscaping company. Based out of Clifton Park, NY, our elite team of hardscape engineers serves clients from Albany through Saratoga, Latham and Troy. Our goal is to create exceptional landscapes which will last for years to come, while at the same time backing our service with ongoing support and guidance, at a competitive rate.

"Craig did landscaping and installed a paver patio at my residence in which they did a phenomenal job. However I also had a lawn irrigation system installed which is where things went down hill. The gentlemen who installed it was friendly and on time but he installed the solenoid valve incorrectly for the drip hose on my arborvitaes. He had the on/off wires crossed. Although the system said the unit was running, no water was being supplied to them. They of course ended up dying. I thought maybe it was the soil. So I had the arborvitaes replaced by Craig for a few. These died too. Today I decided to replace the valve and that is when I discovered the solenoid wires were crossed. No testing was ever done on the irrigation system. I’m a bit disappointed in the oversight. Otherwise I do recommend this business for all other work. Stay away from lawn irrigation."

FAQs for engineer structural projects in Schenectady, NY

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.
