W Works Inc - Structural Engineer (Ottawa)

I needed the advice of a structural engineer at short notice for a basement renovation already in progress on a old house. Walter quickly understood the issue and applied his knowledge. Along with assessing the situation he clearly explained in terms I could understand his reasoning. There's no doubt I will turn to Walter for further structural engineering work - I can throughly recommend him; smart, knowledgeable and great communication.

We had an excellent experience working with Walter. The project was a little unusual but he grasped it right away and came up with a creative solution in a short timeframe. He was very knowledgable and professional. I sent him numerous email questions and he never failed to respond in a friendly timely manner. Just an excellent experience with competitive rates. Highly recommended.

I recently hired WWorks as part of a kitchen renovation project - removing several walls in my decades old home and creating a modern open concept space. Walter was punctual and able to work around my schedule. His inspection was very thorough, and while most of the project was straightforward, he was able to address a few unexpected things lurking under the old basement.Despite the fact that this was a small project - a kitchen renovation in a small home, Walter gave it his full attention and completed the work with quick priority. I've seen several of the much larger projects Walter has worked on, and I was pleased that he gave the same amount of attention to my small project.

Walter helped me assess an ongoing renovation and I found him to be very knowledgeable and able discuss a complicated issue in a way that was very helpful to me. I will hopefully be using him to help complete this renovation.As an update. Walter was extremely helpful in re-assessing the structural needs of our botched renovation. I would highly recommend him for his structural knowledge and I am very satisfied with the solution provided.

I needed a structural assessment in a hurry and Walter completed the job with time to spare. Walter took the time to make sure he fully understood my project and answered any questions I had. I was very pleased with the customer service and I'd definitely contact Walter again for any future projects.

I found Walter’s service to be extremely valuable to my project. I hired him to help me out getting the permit and he nailed in way that no second time revision was required. As we started the framing, the technical spec for truss, floor joist and post were modified due to the changes in foundation and he was there for us, his accessibility 7 X24 for us was absolutely vital especially when you have your contractors on site waiting for clarifications.

I hired Walter for a structural assessment when doing a main floor conversion to an open concept living space. He provided just what we needed: solid advice on what kind of support was required when removing the internal walls. It was great working with Walter and I highly recommend him after my experience.

Walter gave us great service at a reasonable cost for our new house in Westboro. We urgently needed structural engineering for tall walls and loading on beams. Walter was ready and quick, and effectively addressed our specific requirements. He went out of his way to contact our designer, our suppliers and the building code reviewer to be sure that everyone was on the same wavelength. He thoroughly explained his recommendations to us all. It was a pleasure to work with Walter.

We built our personal home from foundation up and Walter was our structural engineer. Walter was so professional, great rate, and fast. Walter answered every question by phone or email, no matter how easy or complicated. The house had lots of tall walls, medium size walls, with large open concept areas and walter had great suggestions for all. He even took the lead to contact the other tradespeople that I had hired (framers, roofer, designer) and city inspector to make sure everything is clear and smooth, and this was so appreciated by me and others. It was indeed a pleasure to work with Walter and I do not hesitate to recommend him and to reuse his services at anytime in the future.

As a first time builder ( 4200 sq ft) I was a bit concerned that the process would be overwhelming but dealing with Walter has been a pleasure. He has returned phone calls promptly and helped me deal with issues as they arose.I knew we had the right company when my framer expressed his pleasure to hear that I was dealing with Walter.I would not hesitate to recommend his services to anyone.100% satisfied
