“I needed a residential structural assessment and remediation plan for my midcentury modern steel post and timber beam house. I submitted my request via the website on a Friday evening, and Monday morning got a call from the owner, Christopher. He asked for some more details and laid out the process, including time and cost estimates for the plan. Isaac came out that very same day to assess, conveying exactly the same time and cost estimates. He kept me informed about his progress and offered options based on his modeling. He made one recommendation and then completed a second one at my request. The solution is structurally sound and aesthetically appropriate. Highly recommend these folks!”

“Extremely communicative throughout all stages of the project. We are remodeling a small section of our 1953 bungalow and Okkem provided structural drawings and counsel/ inspection throughout the project. Would recommend and use them again.”

“We’ve now done two major Reno’s with Chris from Okkem Design. The second one we did in a rush and had to book with another company due to timing. They were horrible to work with, and even to my untrained eye the drawings were wrong. I called Chris and explained the situation, and he came out as quickly as he was able and gave us designs we could actually use. The project is complete, thanks to his w intervention.”

“I have worked directly with Chris and the team at Okkem on multiple structural engineering projects as part of my HOA. All the projects involved multiple stories, permitted work and have ranged from repairs to a complete rebuild. For each project Chris has taken the time to comprehensively assess the situation and worked patiently with us to provide the best and safest option to fit our needs. The team is extremely responsive and professional and I highly recommend Okkem.”
