The whole team was hands-on deck in going over any concerns I had while providing updates through every step of the process. On the day of the installations, supervisor Eny and his team of Ronaldo, Daniel, and Casimiro did a great quality job in less time than I thought it would take. I'd highly recommend this company for any foundational projects you may have! At least get into open communications with them and you'll learn a thing or two.

I specifically requested a civil engineer to look at the drainage situation at our house, along with the waterproofing at our exterior doors. Their web site states that they have civil engineers on staff, and I therefore thought they'd be able to help. In my case, however, they sent a structural engineer and he didn't have a whole lot to say and was apparently unable to comment with any level of detail about the concerns I had regarding drainage or waterproofing. It was honestly just an $1100 waste of time.

I worked with Prostruct Engineering on a residential interior wall removal project. I was very…read morepleased with their professionalism and services. The project manager, Nithin and project success associate, Joshua were always in the loop of communication. In the process, Nithin was very responsive to answer questions and make necessary drawing changes according to the requests. The project was done in a timely manner with reasonable cost. Overall I was impressed with their performance, quality, schedule and cost!

You don't have to hustle to be in touch with them for any questions you have. I highly recommend them

He came and inspected our roof, as we were planning to install solar panels with Tesla. However, Tesla refused to provide a 100% offset and only offered 66%, claiming that there were issues with our roof. So we started looking for an engineer who could assess the real condition of the roof. Evgeny arrived right on time and did a thorough inspection. All the paperwork was ready the very next day. We 100% recommend him!

We wanted three walls removed and our 8ft ceilings vaulted to 11ft. He spent about 4 hours on site and covered every square foot of our home to make sure he had all the necessary dimensions, pictures and details in order to make an assessment. He presented three options to me for vaulting, discussed pros and cons of each and left me with a digital packet of all of the notes and pictures he took. The turn around time for drawings was one week and required one re-submission to the city with a minor note correction. Overall we are thrilled with the vaulted ceilings which would not have been possible without FJ engineering.

I received quotes from a couple of companies, and while these guys weren't the cheapest, they were definitely the most knowledgeable and took the time to clearly explain how the repairs would be done.

I do have a slight squeeze in one area of the floor in my raised home, and I'm currently waiting for them to come back and take a look at it. I know pier repair is not much complicated but their crew was professional and their price was reasonable. I would highly recommend these folks.

I felt it was important to share our experience with JZ structural as I ultimately went with them…read moregiven their high Yelp reviews. However, my experience was negative to say the least. Ellen was responsive initially, but this was only until they received payment. After this, trying to get a response was like getting blood from a stone: close to impossible. My architect had asked Julian, the engineer, if he could draw a rough mock up before he put together a full set of plans (to which he agreed). We never got this, despite checking in multiple times, and instead, it was only right upon the 'deadline' we had provided for the project that we received a full final set of plans. This was disappointing. The plans themselves were riddled with errors: it seemed like a lot of copy / paste work rather than careful attention to detail. The wrong county was listed, and certain structural details were copy pasted from the wrong city, which my architect had to point out. We had around 30 local contractors look at the plans, as well as two peer reviews of the plans from other licensed structural engineers, and the feedback was that it had been over-designed (consistent with one of the other yelp reviews). After multiple emails attempting to get Julian (the engineer) on a call, he was incredibly defensive, and rude. It was at this point, I was appalled that he would speak to a client like this, so decided to cut ties with this company and use another structural engineer instead. If you are in absolutely no rush, and have no concerns about over-design: perhaps this company will work for you. But for our residential project, this was one of the worst experiences I have had with a "professional" service, and I want to warn others.

Would highly recommend getting in touch with them if you need help with building and large renovation projects.
