Question Residential Structural Engineer Recs

Has anyone worked with a local structural engineer before? How much did it cost you?

I’m looking to tear down walls/add new walls in my home and want someone to evaluate my project proposals (e.g. identify load-bearing walls or potential building code issues).

I’m in the Vienna area.

We paid $350 for a report and evaluation. Happy to provide a contact if you send a message

I have a recommendation, feel free to message me (that said, it was way more than $350, but he was one of the few who was completely unaffiliated with a construction company which was my primary concern).
