Jonathon and his team were top professionals when I hired them to take over an project that was going sideways with another firm. They were very responsive, helped me salvage what I could from the previous firm, and provided the expertise and knowledge needed to finish the job quickly and efficiently. Jonathon went above and beyond to make sure I understood the process and answered all of my questions patiently. I will hire them again for my next structural engineering project and strongly recommend them if you need work done right the first time.

Amazing communication from this amazing team. Absolute value for the all inclusive services you get from a professional and prompt team. I used architecture and engineering services for a major home addition and remodel. Additionally, Jonathon and his network was able to handle every issue from the city including great referrals for soil report and grading plan engineer. Don’t bother wasting your time getting more quotes, this is the firm to use.
