"I wish I had hired them first! I hired another company to fix my moving bowed and shearing basement walls. They were primarily a waterproofing company, but said they had the solutions to my issues. 3 months after they were complete, my walls cracked and shifted again. (Note, in the attached photos, the patchwork quilt on the walls was the OTHER company.) OBA fixed my issues the correct way. And they were great at every step. The work crew Caleb, Delontae, and Dylan were fast, efficient, and cleaned up when they were done. Caleb made sure to explain what was happening as they did the work and ask if I had questions. The work was thorough, and I feel good about it. And even better, they'll be out in 6 months to ensure everything is working as it should and make adjustments if needed."

Construction company and consulting engineering firm for residential, industrial, commercial, institutional, and retail clients.

"Had Betts Structural Engineering come and look at the foundation of a house we were in contract on. Josh came out and was professional and informative. He informed us the foundation was failing and explained what needed to be done. He throughly explained everything and told us how we could do it ourselves for much cheaper than a contractor could do it. In the end he saved us from a long and expensive process if we proceeded with the house."

A structural engineering consulting firm with a background in structural and architectural design and drafting for commercial and residential projects. We specialize in wood design, steel design, masonry, and reinforce concrete design. We offer foundation and basement inspections. We are licensed and work all over Ohio and Western PA.

"Well, I should have checked the Angies List reviews before we hired them. They did come out promptly but then took nearly a month to provide us with a report that not only had numerous mistakes, but it came to conclusions that we knew were not correct. In addition to recommending nearly $20,000 of repairs. Paid them $600. We have since done our research and hired another structural engineer, Jim Wright, from Western Reserve Home Inspection who came out promptly, provided a report within a few days and provided the structural "details" that we needed to go back to the builder with. See our review on this 2nd inspection. As for Cramer -- would NOT recommend. In fact, I'm annoyed with AL -- because I thought I was searching for engineers in the first search box of the website like i used to -- and then could look at all the reviews. Instead, it took me though a series of questions and then the "PROS" reached out to us. I assumed these were vetted (i.e., ratings of a B or better). NOT SO. Now I see that Cramer has a number of D and F ratings. Hard, expensive lesson to learn."

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.
