Mannnn, you don’t find many honest people like this nowadays. I can say Dag was punctual, professional and was honest with me 100% throughout the process of speaking with them about my issues in a home I’m looking to purchase. I definitely feel better about my situation and I wouldn’t hesitate to have him complete any work on the home if ever needed. If you need work or insight done from someone who takes pride in their work, Dag is the engineer to call. Thanks again!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing depends on the scope and complexity of the project. Small services such as evaluations or stamped letters are typically flat-fee, while larger designs are priced based on required calculations and drawings. All pricing is discussed upfront, with no hidden fees.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I start by reviewing the project details, photos, and any existing plans to understand the scope. If needed, I perform a site visit. I then provide a clear scope, fee, and timeline. Once approved, I complete the engineering work and deliver the required stamped documents or drawings.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Master’s d\Degree in Civil/Structural Engineering, and I am a licensed Professional Engineer (PE) in the State of Maryland. I have over 12 years of experience in structural design, construction inspection, and project management, working on residential and public infrastructure projects.
