Structural Engineered Changes
Smart Solutions for Complex Home Challenges
Not every remodel is surface-level. When walls need to move, ceilings need to rise, or foundations start to fail, Shaw & Sons Construction, LLC brings structural engineering expertise to the table. We specialize in custom structural modifications that preserve the integrity of your home while giving you the space and layout you actually want.
Open It Up. Reinforce It Right.
- Looking for an open-concept floor plan?
- Need to support a sinking structure?
- Want to create vaulted ceilings or remove a load-bearing wall?
We can help.
Our team partners directly with trusted structural engineers to design safe, code-compliant solutions, then we build to spec. From jacking up sagging porches to installing buried support systems, we bring real solutions to real-world structural problems.
What We Handle
Load-Bearing Wall Removal & Beam Installation
We build temporary supports, bring in engineering partners to draft safe reinforcements and install new beams (hidden or exposed), depending on your preferences and the home’s layout.
Footings, Posts & Reinforcement
We pour new concrete footings, install support posts and reframe as needed to stabilize aging or modified structures.
Helical Piers & Soil Stabilization
Using auger-driven helical piers, we anchor deep into stable soil layers, creating a solid foundation for decks, additions and problem areas that might otherwise continue to sink or shift.
Cathedral Ceilings & Vaulted Spaces
Want to open up your home vertically? We can cut and restructure existing trusses per engineered plans to give you that open, airy feel.
Foundation & Structural Support
From shifting porches to water-damaged crawlspaces, we can jack, level and reinforce weak spots using custom-built supports.
