"On May 4, I met with a Field Inspector (Salesman) from Aquaguard regarding a leak that I had in my basement. He advised that I needed to have my son move some dirt around my foundation to fix the leak in the basement. I found out from a landscape company that fixed the cause of the leak that this would have made it worse. However the Field Inspector recommended new gutters (which I agree were needed), poly-renewal to fix the cracks in my driveway, and column lift for the column in the middle of my garage doors. These repairs were approximately $10,000. My problems started from there. The field inspector led me to believe the my house would be virtually unsaleable if I did not have the repairs completed. As a widow, without any knowledge of home repairs, I trusted what he said. Later I found out that the column lift and the crack repair in the driveway were not necessary. He completely missed a problem with my front porch being separated from the house. I paid a $2,900 deposit with work was to start on June 7. On June 7, The work on the column was completed. A member of the crew said that they were not sure why this was recommended. June 9, The driveway work was completed by a different crew. They arrived 3 hours earlier than scheduled. They said that they had seen much worse driveways. What I did not know was the the work that they do with the polypill does not repair the cracks. It only prevents them from getting worse, according the the Aquaguard crew. My driveway looks exactly like it did before I spent $1500 for repair. Also on June 9, the gutter repair crew arrived. They were scheduled for the afternoon, but arrived at 9:30 am. Following the gutter install, I walked around with the crew foreman. There was one downspout that was not attached to the gutter. I pointed this out to the foreman. He called someone over to fix that. This young man left a hammer in the yard, was told to pick it up, then threw it down in a different part of the yard. This was a preview of the problems to come. The following morning, I walked out on my deck to find it in complete disarray with rusty nails and a black roofing dust everywhere. I picked up over 40 nails. Nails that my grandchildren could have easily walked on. I found large gutter nails in my yard that could have caused injury to my lawn maintenance person or damaged his equipment. My deck furniture and rug were ruined. I sent a text to the scheduler (the only number I had) on Saturday. He did not respond. A supervisor Nick called me on June 13. He sent someone to my home on June 14 to help clean up and access the damage. The person that he sent was injured and could not do anything with his arm in a sling. He also came with no tools, equipment, paper to take notes, a camera to take pictures, nothing. He borrowed my broom and water hose to spray off my concrete patio. It was a nice gesture but absolutely no help at all. I sent Nick a list of items that were damaged. He said that they would take care of it, but there was no follow-up. He said that he wanted to come to my house to see the damage, but because of our schedules, he could not come for two weeks. I sent a text the week he was supposed to be back in town but did not hear anything. I cleaned my deck and replaced the items that were damaged so that I could use my deck. As of August 5, nearly two months after the initial work was completed, I have heard nothing from Aquaguard about them taking responsibility for the shoddy work and irresponsible work ethic of their gutter crew. I am terribly disappointed in this company and would not recommend them to anyone. Additionally, I was overcharged by $2900. I never received any receipt or breakdown for what I was charged by each of the three different crews even though I asked for an email receipt. I did get a refund for the overpayment. Do not use this company if you want someone who lives up to their word, who has reliable, consistent accounting practices and who has employees that take pride in their work.

No, it’s not legal for unlicensed individuals to conduct structural calculations for buildings or building repairs. Not only do licensing requirements prevent DIYers from tackling this project, but mistakes can also be extremely dangerous and put your property and anyone inside or near it at risk of severe injury or even death. You should always hire a licensed and certified local structural engineer to make structural calculations.
Yes, all states require structural engineers to carry the proper license, with specifics determined by each state. You can use Angi’s state licensing tool to confirm that the structural engineer you’re considering holds the required licensing to tackle your job. Hiring an unlicensed structural engineer will not only cause issues with permits but it could also lead to an unsafe building. The cost of a professional, licensed, and experienced engineer is well worth the investment.
The process of hiring a structural engineer starts by finding reliable professionals in your area and comparing quotes from at least three of them. From there, you can narrow down your selection by asking some leading questions:
Do you have experience working in my specific area?
Do you have professional indemnity insurance?
What will your structural report cover?
Do you charge a flat fee for a structural report or by the hour?
How long have you been in business?
Do you have a list of customer references?
Structural engineers typically charge between $100 and $250 per hour, but many jobs won’t be based on a per-hour fee. Instead, the structural engineer will offer a flat rate for the inspection and structural calculations. The flat rate for a structural engineer costs an average of around $550, but you could see prices ranging from $300 to $800, depending on the complexity of your project and how easy it is to access certain parts of your home for the inspection.
Whether you’re building a new home or building an extension on your existing property, you will likely need both a structural engineer and an architect. A structural engineer will determine what loads your foundation and framing can safely handle, and an architect will draw plans according to those structural calculations to simplify the building process. You can start by contacting a structural engineer near you, as many work alongside architects and can get all of the prep work done at once.
