We hired YCL Structural Designs to assess a load-bearing wall that we wanted to remove - after a poor experience with another structural engineer. Yu was extremely easy to work with. He had excellent communication skills. He was very clear in providing us different service options and associated fees.

We had several questions through the process and Yu was very open to explaining things further and was very patient. I wish all our contractors and tradespeople were as easy to work with as Yu. His price was fair and there were no added surprise fees.

Yu Ching and his team at YCL went above and beyond to not only do thorough work for our basement underpinning engineering, but also provided so much helpful advice along the way.

I called Yu Ching (after calling some of the other guys on homestars) who told me a bit about himself and asked me a few questions about our plans before we made an appointment to come see the house. He was very knowledgeable and courteous when answering my questions. I found out through my research that he worked for a very large a reputable company for a long time before starting his own business, which made me feel comfortable with his experience. Yu Ching arrived on time and again asked me a few questions to find out more about my place and what my ultimate plans were.
