Assessed erosion and house structural integrity

Advanced Engineering came out to assess an erosion issue and while they didn't perform the types of services that were required, they provided guidance to us about what needed done. They were very helpful, professional and pleasant. I would recommend them to anyone requiring this type of service.

Drainage around our home

From start to finish to job went extremely well. AEC was the only company out of the 4 estimates we received that understood our drainage issues and explained these issues to us in plain language. Phil and his team installed the proper equipment required to eliminate our drainage problems while respecting our property and cleaning up after themselves each day. They are a real professional team who know what they are doing. By far these guys understand home drainage problems. Our home is now dry both in the yard and in the crawl space. We highly recommend them to anyone with water problems on their property.

Water under the house; Drainage problems

Phil returned our call within a few hours; looked up our property on google and gave excellent suggestions for improving our drainage. If we are unable to do any of the work ourselves, we will definitely call him.

They did a sealing of a crawlspace and put in a french drain.

They did excellent work and I'm very happy with them. Super helpful and they were the only company that actually told me why I was having a problem from a technical point of view so they were more knowledgeable than the other companies we talked to about doing the work with us.

French Drains

AEC provided excellent customer service from beginning to end. We were happy with their work and the pricing was more than fair. We have used them on two of our primary homes and the service has been spot on. I recommend you give AEC a chance if you are have any type of foundation or drainage project. Thanks AEC for 14 years of service.

Diverting water from a downspout

The gentleman who called me back was VERY helpful and polite. He gave me the information that was needed above what I had already researched to be able to do the project on my own. This was very much appreciated since the project had a very tight schedule to get it completed prior to another project in the area of my yard.

Drainage, Structural Repairs, Moisture Problems

Advanced Engineering designed and installed an impressive pump station for my basement. Although there has been a pump in the basement since the house was built in 1960, It never captured enough water. Sometimes I might accumulate as much as a foot or so of water in the basement if there was a rally hard rain. After a couple of days the pump would get the water level down to 2 or 3 inches and I would have to sweep the water to the pump station. and use a wet dry vac. I reached out to several other companies and discussed their approach for addressing the problems before hiring Advanced Engineering. I discovered that most companies seemed to be using a very similar design to one another, which must have been a popular prefabricated approach that they probably use on every house. When I spoke with Phil Carter from Advanced Engineering he explained how they could do a custom pump station design for my home which would be more effective and less expensive than what others were proposing. He also addressed other drainage issues outside the home which have helped keep the water away from my foundation and reduced the risk of future foundation problems. Phil seemed to be more knowledgeable about drainage issues than anyone else I spoke with. (maybe because he is an engineer). They installed my drainage system over 9 months ago and the basement has been bone dry since! I thought this was pretty amazing since they only installed one pump station and it has been the most rain this year that I can remember. One day we had 5 inches of rain and the pump still kept up. I was also very pleased with the crew. Dave was very nice and extremely knowledgable as well. It was very hard work and they did it in a timely manner. Advanced Engineering also took care of the mold remediation and corrected a couple of structural issues as well. I think I was most impressed and happy about the drainage solutions though, because now my basement stays clean and dry. And I don't have to sweep water anymore. Thank You Advanced Engineering !

Review: Structural Engineering Service
1 year ago

Had some settling underneath staircase, with some drywall cracking and doors slightly sticking.

They were quick to respond to our request for an estimate. Dave came out to inspect and was direct and to the point about what the issues were, which we very much appreciated. Dave and Mr. Carter put together a couple of different proposals and once we picked a plan, they were very quick to start the job. Dave has been the lead on the project and walked us through each step, ensuring we knew what was going on. Dave and Mr. Carter were easy to contact and a pleasure to work with! This company has a can-do attitude and is very flexible with your schedule!! I would definitely hire them again!!!

Review: Insulation Service

Major house repair, structural damage, foundation issues

AES inspected the structural parts of the house and repaired floor beams, piers, beams, etc, then put down waterproofing, including bringing the waterproofing up the sides of the crawlspace and piers, sealing the crawlspace from moisture issues. In addition, they removed the brick facing of the exterior walls and replaced it with siding, reducing the weight of the house on the foundation. AES are consummate professionals. Easy to work with, they take complex issues and explain them in easy to understand terms. Great work ethic. Did great work. Cleaned up everything very well. Good communication. Followed up 2 months later to attach the shutters. Kept on a schedule. Really can't say enough about Phil and Dave and the rest. HIRE THESE FOLKS!!! They are the best you can find. No kidding.

Review: Siding Service

Structural repair, siding, demo

Awesome company! Phil Carter is a consummate professional. Dave the foreman went over and above getting the job done right and quickly. They special ordered our siding. They took a wavy hardwood floor with inches of variations throughout the house and made it nearly new. They demo’d thebrick walls and brought in a subcontractor to install siding, supervising them closely. ALL work done well. Looks awesome. Super happy with the work and the positive attitude of Phil and Dave.
