Structural Modifications and Repairs

Garage Wall Repair

A family member hit the gas instead of the brake and drove into the wall between the garage doors pushing back the structure supporting the 2nd floor master bedroom. When we arrived the only thing holding up the front wall were the tracks supporting the garage doors. We installed temporary steel columns to support the 2nd floor then performed an evaluation project with our Structural Engineer. Even though this was a low speed crash, the shock wave from the impact rippled through the garage and loosened the ceiling drywall which resulted in cracks in the joints. The repairs involved rebuilding the front wall, designing and installing new custom garage doors/tracks/WiFi enabled opener, screwing in all of the ceiling drywall before installing replacement stucco on the outside. Our stucco team has 30 years of experience installing it properly and  knows how to match the texture and color.
