Construction Administration

If you have ever been to a construction site, you know it takes a lot of moving parts (and people!) to get the job done. Plumbers, electricians, drywallers, carpenters, roofers, landscapers, and more all play a critical role. But keeping track of all the moving parts can be overwhelming for most homeowners. If you need additional support on your project, we can provide ongoing administration after construction has started.

Our knowledgeable team cares for your project like it was our own.

A Team You Can Trust

Your investment is worth too much to leave unattended–especially since even well-intentioned contractors can misinterpret and misunderstand intended plans. We can provide you with additional support through the process. Design Everest is here for you!

Structural Observation

Most home improvement projects call for some kind of structural component. From adding or removing load bearing walls to headers, foundations and roofs, building a structurally sound home is vital for your home’s longevity. But how can you be sure your new home, remodel or ADU is being built according to its structural plan?

Design Everest understands your remodel or new build requires careful monitoring throughout the construction process. We dedicate engineers to check in on your project during critical periods to make sure everything is structurally sound before an inspection. Our team looks at the foundation, framing, beams, trusses, joists and more to mitigate unwanted cracks, sags or settling.

You can sleep tight knowing our experienced engineers are keeping a close eye on every important construction milestone.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING

"I have used Design Everest for several houses and the experience has been great each time. They have a team of designer, architects, structural engineers, and project managers to make sure things are constantly being completed and moving forward. Their guidance and experience helped navigate through issues before they arose, bringing our dream into reality. I will recommend Design Everest to anyone looking to complete the plans of their dreams quickly with a team of experts at a reasonable price."

"It's probably one of the few firms you can fully trust in the Bay Area. I got referred by a friend to Design Everest for a kitchen and bathroom remodel of my condo. They sent an architect to map out the current conditions of our house. The architect was very patient as we took our time to go through the plans, and he also suggested which complemented the way we wanted to remodel our home. They completed the plans within two weeks, and overall it was a very satisfying process. We are very happy to go with Design Everest. We will surely go with them if we need any engineering work in the future!"

"Design Everest provided timely and accurate Mechanical and Plumbing drawings which were approved by the local jurisdiction the first time they were submitted. This was a short-notice commercial permit which made timing even more crucial, and they came through big time for us."

"When I found Design Everest on the web, I sent a short email and had a response immediately. They took the time to explain the process of designing and structural engineering. This was my first project and had a ton of questions and got all of my questions answered. I will use them on future projects!"

"We worked with a designer, a PM, a structural engineer, and a Title 24 expert from Design Everest to design an ADU. Their close coordination allowed us to remotely design a custom ADU during the coronavirus epidemic. They were patient and allowed the design to iterate many times"

"I ordered an engineering report for a real estate transaction for the foundation portion of inspections. Great company, easy scheduling, great report that was complete and concise. The engineer reported on the foundation as well as the structure itself. Highly recommend."
