At the heart of our business philosophy is a desire to develop long-term partnerships with clients by delivering high-quality projects on time and within budget. This philosophy shapes our business decisions and ensures that the resource implications are fully understood for each project we commit to. We now have Consultants (our Associates) network and partner organizations, all with a lean management structure and similar values and work ethics. Therefore, we can tailor our resources to suit specific project requirements and add specialist services where required. We can work on projects of varying sizes, from the one-off inspection to multi-million dollar new builds with engineering teams scaled to suit. Our back-office support and systems allow our project engineers and our associates to focus on project delivery and build on-going relationships with clients as we all have an interest in delivering successful projects. All projects undertaken by the company will be managed by one of our consultants who will lead the civil/structural design and be the prime client contact and interface with other project team participants. We believe that clients and project developers need a degree of certainty concerning engineering scopes and costs. Where project scopes are well defined, we can provide lump-sum fees; alternatively, where scopes are less well defined, we can work on hourly rates with a maximum estimated fee value.

Structural engineering services FAQs

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.
