About Consulting Structural Engineering Services, Inc. (CSES) Top of Page

''
John S. Apolis, P.E., President of Consulting Structural Engineering Services, Inc., offers over 20 years of experience in Structural Engineering Design for permit submittals for almost every type of construction project. He has designed all types of structures, from small residential garages to multistory buildings to major roadway bridges. We are a small firm, now specializing in Residential projects (both new and remodel) and in small to medium Commercial projects. We pay special attention to the economy of such projects, especially with regard to providing a design that is sensitive to construction costs. Larger engineering firms will often assign smaller projects to a junior engineer, which may result in uneconomical design. Mr. Apolis either designs or closely monitors all of our projects. Our design costs are often lower because as a smaller firm, we have lower overhead costs. In addition, our turn-around times often are faster, because of the way we organize our work schedule. We typically have provided full structural design for additions and remodel projects for 40 or more satisfied homeowners each year, as well as a similar number of smaller "one day" or even "two hour" projects. We try whenever possible to give you what you need, when you need it. No project is too large or too small. If you are looking for a structural design firm which will stand behind their work, and provide you with timely and cost-effective structural design for your remodel, look no further.

Review by a customer in Seattle, WA
Project: Analyze a Structural Issue (Structural Engineer)
We needed a structural engineer to okay our plans to remove a load-bearing wall. This ended up taking much longer than we hoped, which was frustrating. But in the end we got what we needed for a fair price.

Review by Walter M. in Seattle, WA
Project: Analyze a Structural Issue (Structural Engineer)
John was able to produce the structural details I needed for my basement remodel from photos and sketches I sent him. His rates were reasonable and his turnaround time was very good. He also provided great phone support and clarification on another structural question I had.

Review by Jay J. in Seattle, WA
Project: Analyze a Structural Issue (Structural Engineer)
John told me exactly what his schedule would be, provided an invoice which matched the final charge, and met the final completion date per his original estimate. He was flexible in working with me to exchange information on the plan details.
