About this listen

Garth Haslem is a structural engineer, licensed in Utah. He has performed structural inspections since 1993. Garth is the structural engineer that will go out to homes, identify problems and then provide solutions. He does settling foundations, cracked walls, sagging beams & headers, damaged structural columns, manufactured homes, damaged rafters, and the list keeps going. He also consults on homes that have been damaged by fire, flood, wind, earthquakes and even explosions. Purchase consults? We do that. Putting a walkout door in your basement? Need a lintel? Yeah we do that. Need structural piers? Maybe you do, and maybe you don't. Let's talk.
