From the start, Steve was great to work with and very thorough in his examination. He gave me early indications of what is happening and a general recourse of how to remediate it. However, it would be extra to draw up official restoration/fix plans, he did give us a lot more peace of mind moving forward. If you are looking for an independent structural engineer point of view, I would call Steve.

We needed some advice on a structural engineering concern arising during a kitchen renovation and…read morewe needed it fast and simple to understand. Steve was able to come to the house fairly quickly and provide both a diagnosis of the problem (yes there was one) and some reasonable solution options that were practical and doable. Additionally, he was able to simply (in ways that a non structural engineer could understand) answer all my questions and I am definitely more knowledgeable about my home's structure after his consultation.

Bitarchitects provided a prompt response, prompt call phone consultation & next steps. Within 1 week of contact I was able to discuss my concerns, the engineer completed a thorough walk through of my home & gave me ample amount of time view discuss my concerns. More importantly they didn't drag out the walkthrough for hours!! I appreciate the honest responses to help distinguish between normal settlement & items that are concerning. I'm waiting on the written report (inspection was completed one business day before writing this review) to proceed with the fixes. I strongly urge spending time & money on an inspection from a structural engineer before spending $$$$ for repairs that aren't needed. Prior to contacting I had 2 vendors try to sell me solutions for problems I didn't have. The price I paid for the inspection literally saved me $$,$$$. My selection of Bitarchitects was because they heard my initial concern, were quick to provide service, & provided communication from initial inquiry to the day of service.

Terry Bitar and her team were great to work with every step of the project. They handled things large and small to successfully complete the project. It was easy to communicate with the team, both on big picture issues and on smaller logistical issues. Bitarchitects listened to us and provided us with options and expertise to navigate the task of structural reinforcements for our 100-year old DC home. I also appreciated that, in addition to talking through things, they neatly put things in writing so there was a clear documentation of the project. -- We had an urgent concern with a structural issue in our old house so we reached out to Bitarchitects based on their good reviews here. We received a prompt response and soon had an engineer evaluating our house. The engineer was thorough, helpful, and went above and beyond. He provided a lot of valuable insight both on site and then in a comprehensive written report. I also appreciate that Bitarchitects is able to help me find vendors to complete the work recommended in the engineering report. I have had a great experience from the start and would recommend Bitarchitects to other homeowners.

The floor was slightly uneven in the living room, and I wanted assurance that it wasn't a foundation issue. I called a few companies and no one could come out for at least 2 weeks and they charged twice as much!!! Mr. Osman could come out the next day and wrote a fantastic report. Did I mention he has a PhD!! If you want someone quick and dependable I highly recommend using this company. He has high tech laser tools and was very friendly.
