About us

Hello, my name is Louis Schwartz and I am the owner of Tiderunner Engineering & Design, P.C. I started my civil engineering business in 2004 to focus on the residential construction Industry. With over a decade of experience in the industry I have substantial knowledge in preparing plans for renovations and/or additions. I have also been reviewing plans in Suffolk and Nassau counties for code compliance written by others, structural analysis, and residential sanitary system design. I work very close with both contractors and homeowners and I enjoy supplying engineering support for contractors in the residential construction field. My company has been very successful over the years because I provide such a variety of services as both a structural engineer and a plan preparer. I have helped several residential contractors with building permit application preparation, grading and drainage plans, as well as acquisitions. If you are looking to work with the best in the business; look no further than Tiderunner Engineering & Design, P.C. Call me today to set up an appointment.

I wanted an engineer to size a structural beam and the supports needed to hold up the beam in my ranch. I sort of knew what needed to be done, but I wanted a pro to take a look. Lou came right down and was in and out in a few minutes. He answered all of my questions and emailed a digital report in a timely manner. A quick $400, but worth the expense knowing that a professional approved my project.

Lou was a pleasure to work with especially dealing with the TONH Bldgs Dept. He knew what was needed on the drawings to get a permit. He was quick to contact the plan examiner for me when additional information was requested.

Lou was very professional and very informative when assessing our rotted main girder. He explained everything very clearly, took his time and then wrote up a complete report and specifications for the contractor to follow. I would not hesitate to recommend Tiderunner to anyone looking for a structural engineer.
