Cecilia home called us soon after we sent the request. He professionally explained and provided valuable advice for our issue. When we called him again after 2 days, he patiently clarified all our questions and gave us free idea. He is very knowledgeable and experienced. Really appreciated his help. We strongly recommend him and his team for anyone who needs structural engineering services.

They came in time to take the measurements. The main reason I have asked for an analysis was due to some cracks I had on ceiling which they have identified the root cause.

I hired Cecilia and the team for a structural peer review on a residential beam and post project. They were responsive, professional, and easy to work with. Their review was clear and helpful, and they provided solid technical feedback that gave me confidence in the final design.
Overall, a smooth and positive experience. I would gladly work with them again!
Mason was amazing. He provided exactly what I needed at a great value. He was kind, caring and professional. He was also quite responsive and clear in his communication. He delivered the project promptly as well. I will be hiring Mason for all my structural engineering needs.

Very response, and over the phone he was very kind and giving his opinion about the issue we had; he also wasn’t pushing to pay for it, just to think bout it.. but overall, his kindness over the phone was comforting to our problem..
