"They were the cheapest but not the best or fastest. I now have trenches left in my yard, some lines are barely buried 1" in the ground, and vaults not set flush that are 2" above grade. Gabriel didn't keep his schedule and showed up without notification multiple times even on the weekends. He would show up at 5 pm or later, work and hour and leave. He doesn't actually measure during planning, so what he originally quoted as a 9 zone sprinkler system ended up being 11 zones to cover my entire yard. He did add an additional zone at no additional cost, which was nice. If you want cheap, Gabriel is a good choice. If you want good or fast, I would go with someone else."

Engineer structurals FAQs
You should bring in a structural engineer any time youâre adding or removing something that carries weightâthink new construction, a major remodel, or moving a loadâbearing wall. Call one during a realâestate deal, after storm damage, or when you spot cracks in the foundation, beams, or chimney. An engineerâs report confirms that the structure is sound and tells your contractor exactly what fixesâor reinforcementsâare needed to keep the home safe longâterm.
Who you hire depends on the task. Hire an architect to shape the look and layout of your home. Call a structural engineer to verify that loadâbearing elementsâwalls, beams, foundationâcan handle the plan or to diagnose structural issues. Bring in a home inspector for a broad health check during a sale, after a storm, or for an appraisal. Matching the pro to the job keeps costs down and problems in check.
During the visit, the engineer checks your foundation, framing, walls, roof, and insulation, then compares what they see to any existing plans. If the structure matches the specs, you get the allâclear; if not, the engineer outlines the fixes. Their signâoff is what lets the next phase of work move forward, so expect clear notes on whatâs solid and what needs attention.
Civil engineering is the broad field that covers roads, bridges, and other infrastructure. Structural engineers focus on the loads and forces inside a building or bridgeâfoundations, beams, and wallsâwhile mechanical engineers design and keep power systems running, from elevators and turbines to HVAC equipment. In short, civil handles the big picture, structural makes sure it stands up, and mechanical keeps everything moving.
Most structural engineers offer free quotes. Theyâll look at your homeâs size and the scope of work to decide whether a flat fee or hourly rate makes sense. Simple inspections are usually priced by square footage; bigger, more complex jobs require a site visit and a detailed written estimate. Getting that number up front lets you nail down a budget before any drawings or inspections begin.
The engineer reviews every loadâbearing part of the homeâfloors, foundation, walls, roof, and major beamsâalong with insulation and the soil around the structure. They also factor in local weather risks and nearby water sources. The goal is to confirm that the materials and construction can handle dayâtoâday loads and extreme events alike, and to flag any spots that need reinforcement.
