The most important thing you can do, is not purchase a home that you do not feel safe in. The common belief that all homes are built the same or to the same standard is simply not true. These are but a few of the important questions that The Structuralist.net will answer for you. As we grow, the information provided will help to educate thousands of homebuyers, builders and simply those who wish to hire a contractor to do minor work.

Net provides a Professional and Educational Web services that work to promote professionals throughout the building industry to meet on a neutral platform to discuss the work each segment is doing and how their work can be incorporated into rational solutions that will improve the quality of construction while considering the economic implication on the building owner.
