How can we help you?

Moisture Source Investigations

The interfaces between different components of a building envelope are critical connections that must be properly constructed and maintained to ensure the interfaces are not a source of moisture intrusion 

Foundation Deficiencies

 A common cause of cracks in walls and finishes is differential movement of the building and foundation. Movement of the underlying soils, deterioration and distortion of the framing components of the building, changes in load conditions, re-leveling, and other modifications or repair efforts can cause portions or areas of a structure to move differently or to a greater or lesser extent than other areas 

Structural Repairs

Temporary shoring, stud and beam replacement and building retrofits  are common projects we can assist our customers with.

Floor Damage

Cracked tiles and uneven floors can be the result of differential settlement or construction deficiencies that can be identified and properly addressed.

Envelope Protection and Crack Repairs

 The transitions at roof penetrations, roof-to-wall interfaces, and roof valleys are more susceptible to moisture intrusion. Sealing and properly flashing these transitions can be difficult, and, in our experience, buildings experience leaks at these locations due to both the quality of workmanship and materials and accelerated deterioration 

Roof Inspections

 The actual service life for an asphalt shingle roof is dependent on many variables including the roofing material type, quality, rated or design-life, quality of workmanship, site conditions, weather and maintenance. 

Structural Services – FAQs

What are structural services?
Structural services encompass the evaluation, analysis, design, and reporting of a building’s structural systems to ensure safety, stability, and compliance with building codes throughout a structure’s life.
What types of structures does Sabio Engineering work on?
Sabio Engineering works on residential homes, commercial buildings, industrial facilities, multi-family structures, and other structural systems requiring engineering expertise.
What is included in a structural assessment?
A structural assessment includes a site visit by a licensed engineer, evaluation of foundations, framing, load-bearing components, roof systems, visible damage, and potential structural concerns, followed by a written report.
Why would I need a structural engineering inspection?
You may need a structural inspection if you’re buying or selling a property, seeing cracks or movement, planning renovations, experiencing water intrusion, or after extreme weather or seismic events.
What is the difference between a general home inspection and a structural engineering evaluation?
A general home inspector provides a broad overview of a property’s condition. A structural engineering evaluation focuses specifically on structural integrity, load-carrying capacity, and safety, backed by professional engineering judgment.
Will I receive a written engineering report?
Yes. Sabio Engineering provides a detailed written report outlining findings, probable causes of structural issues, recommendations for remediation, and engineering documentation suitable for permitting or repairs.
Can Sabio Engineering assist with structural design and calculations?
Yes. In addition to evaluations, Sabio Engineering provides structural design services, including calculations, drawings, analysis for remodels, additions, beam sizing, and load-bearing assessments.
How does Sabio Engineering identify structural issues?
Licensed engineers examine visible signs such as cracks, deflection, moisture damage, uneven floors, misaligned doors or windows, and material deterioration to assess whether there are underlying structural concerns.
Do Sabio Engineering’s structural services comply with building codes?
Yes. All evaluations, designs, and reports are prepared to meet applicable local and national building codes, safety standards, and industry best practices.
How do I schedule structural services with Sabio Engineering?
You can contact Sabio Engineering to discuss your project, describe any concerns, and schedule a consultation or on-site structural assessment with a licensed engineer.
