Justin is a stellar engineer and knows his stuff in and out. As a bonus, he is incredibly responsive and a pleasure to work with. Offers guidance as well as "the math" to support his clients. I've worked with Justin on two jobs now and I've recommended him to builders and other clients in the past. He won't let you down!
Justin was awesome to work with. Quick to respond to questions, and understood exactly what I was looking to do. Plans are exactly what I needed and great turnaround time. I'm looking forward to working with him on my next project.

We have used Justin on multiple remodeling projects over the past few years. He is always responsive, timely, helps us find reasonable solutions and is a great communicator. We will continue to use him in the future and highly recommend Justin and Mountain Valley Engineering

Thank you for the continued trust over the years. It means a lot that you’ve brought me in on multiple remodeling projects, and I’m glad the responsiveness, timelines, and communication have been consistent for you.
Remodels always come with unique constraints, so I appreciate the opportunity to help find practical, code-compliant solutions that make sense for the project and the budget.
Thanks again for the recommendation. I’m looking forward to working with you on what’s next.

Justin came by in 24 hours and we had plans to remove a wall the next day. Already referred him to my mom. A+

Thank you for the A+ review. I’m glad I could get out quickly and turn the plans around fast, and even more glad to hear the wall removal project is already complete.
I really appreciate you referring me to your mom as well. If either of you ever needs help with a future project, I’d be happy to work with you again.

Justin was fantastic to work with. He came out to assess whether a basement wall was load-bearing or not, and he was incredibly thorough, professional, and knowledgeable throughout the process. Scheduling with him was quick and easy, and he communicated clearly from start to finish.
He even adjusted the appointment to fit an earlier opening in my work schedule, which I really appreciated. He showed up on time, was friendly, and made it clear that I could reach out if anything unexpected came up during the tear-down. That level of support made the whole project feel a lot less stressful.
Highly recommend Justin to anyone who needs a reliable and competent structural engineer.

Thank you, Timothy. I appreciate the review and I’m glad I could help confirm whether the basement wall was load-bearing.
I’m also happy the structural inspection, scheduling, and communication were smooth from start to finish. Thanks again for the recommendation, and if you ever need structural engineering plans or structural calculations for a future remodel, I’d be glad to help.

Justin is the man! He is always there to help. My truss engineer screwed up on a few things, Justin caught their mistakes and made them right.
Thank you Justin!

Thanks, Rhett. I really appreciate that.
I’m glad I was able to catch the truss issues and get the structural corrections sorted out so everything was right and buildable. If you ever need structural engineering plans, plan review, or another set of eyes on a framing package, I’m always happy to help.

Justin is very communicative and easy to work with. He is more than willing to spend time with you and explain things in detail. Looking forward to working with him again in the future for our structural engineering drawing needs.

Justin was really great to partner with on a complex foundation repair project. He was pragmatic and figured out a solution that met our needs and kept costs in check at the same time.

Thank you, Matthew. I appreciate the review.
Foundation repair projects can get complicated fast, so I’m glad we were able to land on a practical solution that protected the structure and kept the scope and costs under control. If you ever need additional structural engineering support down the road, I’m happy to help.

Justin was great to work with in assessing our new home's structural issues. He went the extra mile, showed up on time, communicated clearly, and did what he said he would do. Having worked with a lot of contractors across many industries, Justin is as good as they come. I highly recommend his services.

I had Justin come to my 1890s Avenues home to look at the foundation. His inspection was detailed and most importantly honest! I was expecting some bad news and potentially very expensive repairs coming my way. Justin was happy to report his findings and I truly appreciate his integrity and expertise.

Thank you for the review. I’m glad the foundation inspection was detailed and gave you real peace of mind.
Older homes, especially an 1890s property, can raise a lot of questions, so I always aim to give an honest structural assessment and explain what I’m seeing clearly. I really appreciate your trust, and if you ever need structural engineering plans or a follow-up inspection down the road, I’d be happy to help.

Great experience all-around. Justin was amazing at listening to what we wanted and needed. I’d recommend him.
