How do you know who to call?

When you need to know if your home will be OK, it’s not clear who to call.  Will your engineer be experienced in what you need? What do his customers say? Does he have SUPRA access? Is he a registered Structural Engineer? How many years has he been doing this? 
Call us. We’ll help you.

Engineers do podcasts?

An engineer does a podcast? Isn’t that like being left brained and right brained at the same time? It does take an unusual sort of structural guy to leave the office and his computer, so maybe it’s possible – who knew? 

Yes! We have SUPRA access

We have been a trusted member and affiliate of the real estate community since 1993. If the home has a SUPRA box along the Wasatch Front, we can probably get access. 

  • We like simple. Simple pricing makes everyone happy. Still, sometimes life gets less simple – there are times when we have to charge a bit more. One example of this is when we have to drive a bit further to get to you. Salt Lake and Utah County? No problem. Logan or Cedar City? That will cost more. Multi unit apartment building? Yeah. If your project needs one or two problems to solve? No problem. Many? That might be more. Promises for payment that we have to wait, hope and nag for? First, please no. Really – just no. If we must , then we have to charge you a bit more to help make up for the last guy that made us promises and didn’t pay. That’s why we say that these prices apply only if you pay on the date of the service. You get the idea. Simple is good. More complex is OK, but we might have to change the prices.
