Nick was punctual, cordial and professional. His quote was aligned with the market. I hired him for a residential assessment of hairline cracks. He was thorough and took time to educate us through the process by explaining his thoughts and indicating what to look for. He provided us with options to move forward in a way that made us feel confident about remediation decisions. I highly recommend Nick as a structural engineer.

My wife and I were very pleased with Colonna’s thorough review of our house and the report they provided. We were concerned about a possible structural defect that may present an imminent threat to the house. Thanks to Colonna’s timely response and review, we were advised that our fears were unwarranted. A potential problem in the very early stages was identified and a remedy proposed that will resolve the issue. So we were very satisfied.

Wonderful experience working with Colonna Consulting. Nick was excellent and provided insight and solutions to problems. As he walked me through the house, he gave me feedback on everything he saw and what could be done to remedy problems. He addressed everything in our inspection report and then some. He didn't rush or make me feel pressured. While he was more expensive than others I contacted I appreciate his thoroughness and his demeanor. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and would use him again for sure. A great experience overall. Thanks Nick!

Colonna Consulting was a pleasure to work with. Nick was very responsive and knowledgeable. He saw things I didn’t even notice. He was able to get my report and drawings back to me quickly. Would definitely use again.
