This man was completely negligent with my project. My house was built on a hill. He never addressed the sides of the foundation and furthermore he signed off on a foundation that was sloped instead of stepped. He was extremely reckless and incompetent. If I could do this again, I would never hire him. He also did the structural on a 10ft wall instead of a 13ft wall.

He looked at the specifications of the equipment and the room and told us there would be issues with what we want to do. I received a written contract and within a week a letter stating his findings.
Description of Work: Brent came to my house to determine if it would be safe to put a home gym with heavy equipment in a second story room.

seemed very knowledgeable and helpful
Description of Work: we didn't end up using j brent, because we were able to get a type 5 construction permit so we didn't need all the engineering drawings we originally thought we would need. but he was extremely helpful and spent a lot of time on the phone with us. i would definitely call him again if i have the opportunity.
