Structural repair
Framing, beams, floors and rot repair, plus work around foundations, built to engineer's details.
Structural repair fixes the parts of a house that carry load: framing, beams, joists, rotted sills and subfloors, and the connections between them. Where an engineer is needed, we build to the engineer's details.
Signs to look for: sloping floors, doors that stick, cracks that widen, bounce in a floor, or rot found during another project. Work on or below the foundation, such as lifting or underpinning, is a specialty; where it is needed we say so and use a licensed trade partner.
A job usually starts with an inspection, an engineer's letter where the cause is not obvious, a permit if the structure is altered, then shoring, repair, inspection and finish work. Photos of cracks with dates, past reports and the age of the house help us understand what we are looking at.
We have not collected a sourced local price range for structural repair, so none is shown here. The price comes from a written quote after a site visit, and often after an engineer's review.
Common questions
Do you fix foundation problems?
We build around and on top of foundations as part of construction. Lifting or underpinning is a specialty trade, so we would use a licensed trade partner and tell you so.
