Clayzen Consulting

I worked several times with Rob. In one instance he helped my sellers make the correct and appropriate decisions to address the remediation of structural issues before listing a home. And at his direction repairs were done, the house was sold and both the sellers and the buyers benefit from his services.

Renovation and addition projects always strive to transform existing home layouts into new and exciting living area spaces. Once you describe your hopeful changes, we will discuss overall feasibility, anticipated challenges, and design options when structural modifications are necessary.

Our focus can remain with just the structural design, or we can also help you create new floor plan layouts and construction drawings for a building permit application.Every project is definitely unique, and you can customize our design scope accordingly. If you are buying/selling, renovating, or just notice a few oddities, we can review your concerns and recommend potential repair options.

During the home buying process, our phone usually buzzes at the last minute of a deal when the home inspection or appraisal report red flags a few items with a noncommital comment and recommendeds a more detailed review. We will review to clarify the concern(s), figure out a solution, and keep the deal moving forward.

Navigating the permit process with building departments can be arduous. Many residential construction projects obviously do not require a structural engineer. However, special design situations and unforeseen conditions discovered during construction can significantly complicate the permit process in a hurry.
