Structural Repairs on the Main Line

Start with the change that brought the property to your attention.

Cracks, changes around openings, or a floor that feels different can help frame a conversation. They are observations to review, not a conclusion about cause or repair.

Questions, answered

Frequently asked about structural repairs.

Do you provide engineering?

Yes, in collaboration with licensed structural engineers for design and approvals.

How long does a wall removal or beam install take?

The structural portion typically takes 1–3 days. Finish work may require additional time.

Does structural work in Lower Merion require sealed plans?

Lower Merion’s residential building-permit checklist calls for sealed or signed details for structural work, with an architectural seal acceptable on that checklist. The Township’s current residential guidance also states that plans for structural alterations must be sealed by an Architect or Professional Engineer licensed in Pennsylvania. The exact submission still depends on the defined work, so the permit packet should be confirmed with Lower Merion before filing.
