I would not recommend using this company. We (the buyers) used them for our home inspection and the engineer changed his mind on the report recommendations twice, which caused unnecessary confusion for us as buyers and for the architect who was providing the cost estimate. We submitted his report, along with the cost estimate to the sellers, as part of the inspection negotiations for credit at closing, and realized after the fact the the engineer at Daniels Consulting did not include a very important aspect of the structural issue - that the significant sag in the floor boards would CONTINUE OVER

I have reviewed these guys in the past but it seems to have been removed. I would NOT recommend them at all. (Less than one star if I could have.) We hired them for a major renovation. Two problems - first, they mistakenly calculated everything using the wrong joist measurements. Then, we were presented with drawings that were backwards.....twice! Supposedly, a less experienced draftperson got confused. THIS LACK OF ATTENTION TO DETAIL IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE.

Staff is incredible, never dreamed even after using their incredible services that an entire company would go the extra million miles helping a client with a job site issue. Buisinesses as excellent as this are very very hard to find, they hardly exist anymore.

We have been using Daniels Consulting Engineers for many years. Their work is excellent. They are always willing to work with us to get the details the way we want them. No question is ever too small. They have worked on projects for us from large complicated homes to small additions and details. I highly recommend them.
