Common Structural Issues in Oklahoma City

Oklahoma City's expansive clay soils are the leading cause of structural problems in the area. These soils swell when wet and shrink when dry, creating foundation movement that leads to wall cracking, sticking doors, and uneven floors. Our engineers are specifically trained to identify whether cracking is cosmetic or structural, saving property owners from unnecessary repairs. We also frequently assess tornado damage, hail impact on roof structures, and drainage-related foundation issues common in the OKC metro.

Oklahoma City Case Studies

Historic Home Structural Inspection — Mesta Park, Oklahoma City

Client: Homeowner purchasing 1928 craftsman home

Challenge: Buyer needed a structural inspection before closing on a historic home with visible foundation cracks and sagging floors.

Result: Buyer proceeded with confidence and negotiated a $3,500 credit for the recommended joist reinforcement. Report delivered in 3 business days.

Client: Retail tenant leasing space in downtown OKC
