Markian was on time and very knowledgeable about what needed to be done with our home project.

We had major damage after the last storm our backyard hill and tree came down in a mudslide. We consulted a few people but Aaron Clitheroe cam up not only with the best advice and his knowledge convinced us that Alpha Structural was our choice. His team lead by Ernesto and the work men performed an excellent job in a timely matter and for the budget we had approved. The team arrived daily on time works very hard and always with a smile. We are extremely happy and would recommend them highly Thanks again read more

This is my second job with Alpha Structural for additional pipe and board terraces for my very steep-sloped hill. Their work is out-of-this world! It looks like art...so much so, I really don't even want to plant anything on it! The rows are perfectly aligned. The pipes are perfectly aligned. It is absolutely magnificent! Ernesto, Julio, and the crew were so very professional and a pleasure to work with. They showed up every day, on time, and worked until end of day, keeping my property clean and tidy. And their spectacular engineering is spot-on! I highly, highly recommend Alpha Structural for any hillside work! read more

I recently had Damien do an assessment of a single family property in palos verdes. Alpha Structural was the 3rd company to give an estimate/proposal.

I will be using Alpha Structural for future work read more

Remodeling my rental property has been complicated by contractors "that never come thru." But this cannot be said of Alpha Structural Inc. From the start of my garage project, their staff demonstrated knowledge and skills in construction; Damien, my structural assessor, Jorge, engineer draftsman and the production staff that could envision "new." Yet, it only became a reality because of my construction crew, Eny, Pedro and Rolando. Their teamwork safely organized each day (6 days) to efficiently demolish, evaluate (unforseen developments, management at site), construct, clean and complete proposed project. Foremost, they were courteous and communicated the day's agenda. Ultimately, your crew solidifies all the company's network, "do it right, do it once. " Again, thank you crew (Eny, Pedro and Rolando. You earned every meal & deserve more!), Ernesto and Alpha Structural. With Gratitude Georgina J Alhambra, CA Project: Garage Roof Reframe Value: $28,000 + It's Beautiful & best! read more

Chris Olsen did a great job inspecting our property explaining things to us although the foundation was in great shape and we don't need any work done. He was very kind very thorough and I would recommend him highly. read more

They are knowledgeable and skilled. David Park was inspected the house and was thorough and helpful. Excellent work.

So there's this wall: a retaining wall. For a long as we've lived here, water pools up at the base. One cannot help thinking that this wall, holding back a whole lot of earth, might one day give way. After living with this nagging, low-level anxiety for more than two decades, we resolved to take action and contacted Alpha Structural. We scheduled an appointment at a time of mutual convenience. A couple of helpful reminders followed, and, right on time, Aaron appeared. I left Aaron to inspect the wall and make a structural engineering assessment. Moments later, there was a tap at my window, and I rejoined Aaron at the wall. Aaron had good news: the wall was in good condition and, notwithstanding minor cosmetic flaws, required no repairs. He went on to suggest a simple landscaping step we could take to mitigate the seepage. I especially appreciated that there was no effort to upsell us on other products or services. It was also clear that Aaron derived genuine joy from delivering his good news. This reflects favorably on Alpha Structural's corporate culture, earning it a five-star review and my commitment to use them when I have a task in their wheelhouse. Thank you Aaron; thank you Alpha! read more

Requested a foundation evaluation on a Saturday via their website. Appointment times were flexible and Markian came by to do an free evaluation. He was very honest and gave his evaluations of the concerns; while we ended up not needing foundation work, he also offered suggestions for foundation-related issues and how to move forward. read more

David Park from Alpha Structural did an excellent job examining drainage, foundation and an underground bomb shelter at a property we have in escrow. He was on time, efficient and thorough, with good explanations for the clients. read more

I hired Alpha to do a foundation repair and the structural framing for an extension/some changes to doors/windows. Note that the house is on the hillside and required some extensive work. In addition to that there was no way to get machinery in to the area and all had to be done by hand. So the work came out to be pretty expensive when it was all said and done, but I definitely got what I paid for. The work has been great and extremely fast. The customer service has been great and they have worked with me throughout the process. Shout out to, Augustine/Cruz/Armando/Gustavo, the crew that is working at the house. They all have been extremely professional quick and kind! Before they began work they helped me to save a baby bird which was a great sign from the beginning. In a similar vein all my neighbors have been complimenting them on how nice, caring and professional they are. I live on a small street that has a lot of problems with parking and they have been kind to the neighbors and help them move trash cans to park and make small talk with them, which keeps the neighbors happy. All this while doing some incredible work at an incredibly fast rate. Ultimately, they were more expensive than the other quote I got but I am sure glad I went with Alpha. The work has been fantastic, the speed is mind numbingly fast, their communication has been great, they worked with me throughout the entire permit process which I appreciated all while keeping the neighbors happy. At the end of the day, it's like they say you can only choose two: fast, cheap, or good quality. Alpha is fast and good quality but so far it has been completely worth it. The work is still in progress but the foundation work has been done and about 75% of the framing is done. If there is any changes in the quality of service I will update this post but as of now it doesn't seem like I will have any problems. read more

Kitchen was sinking a bit, a couple of other companies couldn't figure out why. Alpha Structural saw the cause immediately, walked me through the issues and fixes. Confirmed by a second contractor. Bids were similar, went with Alpha. The crew, Daniel, Pedro & Brian, came out to do the job, and figured out ways they could do a more complete fix. They took the time to confirm with me what was done and that all was fixed properly. Work was done quickly, area left clean. read more

I worked with Alpha once before, and they assisted with a second project 2 years ago which, now finally completed, I'm able to write a review about. Alpha helped with structural plans for windows in a garden level unit in order to prepare the proposal for city approval. Alpha is a big company and it took them a little while to complete everything; however I can certainly say that the engineer and contact people were knowledgeable and thorough. The plans were approved with their help and now that the unit is permitted for occupancy, the windows are a lovely attribute to the space. read more

We contacted Alpha Structural after noticing some significant cracking and buckling on one of our exterior walls. After inspecting under the house, Senior Assessor Brad Nestler told us that the foundation was rotating out from under the wall due to tree roots and ground movement, even though the trees had already been removed by us, because of their close proximity to the house. This movement resulted in a gap between the foundation and wall, meaning that there was no load bearing on this side of the house. The house had sheared resulting in popped roof tiles, sloping floors and misaligned doors in their frames. Brad fully explained the procedures required to fix everything and we soon contracted with Alpha Structural to do the work. This contract included a detailed breakdown of cost and schedule. Alpha also organized all the city permits and approvals. Site manager Alfie Andino and his crew Aroldo and Jaun did the actual work. They were professional, friendly, tidy and kept to schedule. They also worked with minimal disruption to my family. Every city inspection was passed, without any issues, and all the work was finished on time, and all debris was removed by them. Alfie gave me recommendations for stucco workers (that was not part of Alpha's work load), and that too was finished professionally in a timely manner. If there had been an earthquake, I believe our house was at serious risk of collapse. The Alpha Structural team saved out house, and I can't recommend them enough. read more

Aaron was so knowledgeable and helpful. He spent a good amount of time, assessing the cracks and floors inside of the units as well as a good amount of time underneath my four unit apartment building. He took the time to explain things to be so clearly and he even identified a plumbing leak for me that I had underneath my house and didn't know about. I never once felt like he was trying to sell me something or scare me into hiring them to do work. Aaron was very reputable and trustworthy. Additionally, Giselle who answered the phone and arranged the appointment was smart and responsive! I learned a lot and highly recommend Aaron and Alpha Structural. read more

Alpha Structural was amazing! The whole team was efficient and extremely skilled! They made surface drains for my driveway which floods including the area in front of my new driveway gate motor and on the back patio porch. I couldn't be happier with the craftsmanship! They even installed the cutsom palm grates to match my home! They kept everything clean and neat for an affordable price. Thank you so much, Alpha. I will be contacting you again if I have any future projects. Karyn read more

I had multiple cracks, some small and some large, all throughout my home to both the inside plaster on the walls and ceilings, and the stucco outside. Literally every room in my house except a small bathroom and laundry room had damage, and the stucco cracks were on all sides of the house. Over a period of a few months I had multiple contractors, foundation companies, drainage companies, etc. inspect my home, and they all said it is well constructed, there was no apparent cause for these issues, and none of them could determine what was causing this to happen. Two of these people did, however, recommend contacting a structural engineering company. A realtor friend of my suggested Alpha Structural. I scheduled an appointment and Aaron from Alpha Structural inspected my house and knew what the problem was right away. In my layman's explanation/understanding of the issue, in the 1930's when the house was built, foundations weren't always poured deep enough (about 1 foot vs. about 3 feet which is current standards). Over time, this caused one corner of the house, the heaviest corner that has a concrete porch, to sink, which caused cracks in the foundation, which caused all of the visible cracks I was seeing. I contracted with Alpha to do the work, which consisted of pouring multiple concrete pads tied into my existing foundation - three of which had to be dug from within the 3 foot crawl space under the house. Chris the job supervisor explained what was going to happen over the 4-5 days the work was to be completed. Abel, the job foreman, and his team did a great job and everything went as planned. The city inspected their work and it indeed passed - I talked to the inspector myself. Abel and team completely cleaned up the areas they worked on when they were finished. Apart from the landscaping that had to be removed to do the work, you'd never even know anything was done after they left. They were very professional throughout the entire process. Probably like many other people, this isn't something I have any experience or expertise in, and having this kind of damage to your home is unsettling at best. I have to rely on companies like this to give a straight and honest answer and complete the work properly. So far, everything seems to be solid and in good shape. I would, and have, recommend Alpha Structural to others. read more

We needed some seismic retro fitting done on our house and I got a recommendation about Alpha Structural from a trusted contractor I know. They did not disappoint. The whole process was very easy and Informative. They are very responsive and communicative. And the team who came out and did the work, Francisco, Orlando, Sergio & Aldo were so nice and thorough. Alpha structural took care of the whole process from permit submission to the work itself, city inspection and permit approval. Now I can rest easier knowing we've had the work done and done well. I highly recommend alpha structural for any concerns you might have or any structural updating you need done. I think the value is appropriate for the excellent quality of work. read more

Sunn, Roberto, Juvencio and Henry worked to repair a corner of our foundation for our 105 year old house. The work was done a little bit ahead of schedule within budget with no surprises. The crew was respectful, knowledgeable, and professional. They didn't miss a beat - even when there was an earthquake right before they poured the concrete! Will definitely use Alpha again when we have future projects on our home. read more

Alpha Structural did a great job on our tricky hillside water issues. We chose them after bidding out the job, and they weren't the cheapest but we feel great about our decision. Our neighbors had used them for a similar issue with good results. Our team of Robert, Henry, and Juve were punctual, friendly, and just genuinely good guys to have around. Their daily cleanup was impeccable - they always left the job site cleaner than when they arrived. And they finished ahead of schedule! read more

A bsolutely thrilled by Mario, Tomas, and Obispo's work! L ittle to complain about, they did such a great job all week~ P ut my mind at ease with their timeliness & work ethic H appy with the quality of the new foundation + exterior wall A nd definitely would hire them again :D For six days, they worked tirelessly to demo, dig, and pour concrete. Everything was on schedule, and beyond that these guys were fun to chat with, quick to help me out, and went above and beyond to cover all my furniture and decor carefully to protect them from the dust. Thank you for the new wall, my home is much happier and safer now! read more

Alpha Structural did a complicated basement renovation and foundation retrofit that no other company could deliver on in Los Angeles (I learned this the hard way.) There is a reason they are the best. Excellent work and excellent service are hard to come by these days, and they did both. Brad, Memo and Mel were all personable, competent and overall just made a process I was dreading easy and pleasant. They did a job that was over a month long and have always answered my calls and requests since the job was completed. Highly recommend. read more

Alpha Structural - General Contractors Near Me - Sunland, California

I just recently got a partial foundation replacement done by Sunn Dorsey and his team Salvador, Augustin and Marc. The whole process was as smooth as I could've hoped for and the guys were extremely polite and respectful of myself and my space. They communicated kindly at all times and any little hiccups (as is to be expected with any construction work, especially of this magnitude) were dealt with quickly and efficiently and I could tell that they really did their best to stress or impose on me as little as possible which I am incredibly appreciative of. They were all really hard honest workers and was reflective of my entire experience with Alpha Structural. The company feels very professional and honest which is hard to come by in this industry. Could not recommend them more! read more

Dealing with foundation repair or replacement is not something to take lightly as it is very costly and requires true expertise to pull it off right the first time. Thankfully Alpha Structural exists to help homeowners with any foundation issues. We had Benny Valenzuela assess our property and he determined that it needed a majority of the stem walls replaced as it was crumbling and literally on its last legs. The key part on why I chose to work with Alpha is the fact that they're a class A and B contractor, with A being licensed to engineer plans in house and B being allowed to build. You don't find that often and it makes the project go a lot smoother since they can coordinate better with the city. They always pull permits with any project that they perform which is a great thing as it demonstrates their honesty in their work to be done right(some contractors won't do this, beware)and it benefits the homeowner should they sell in the future. Originally, our project was scheduled to take three weeks, but it was only done in two weeks! Talk about moving fast and doing great work. Shoutout to Guillermo Manzo and crew for the work done and passing final inspection with a breeze. The quality of the work was very impressive as we did not notice any cracking or damaged pipes when they shored up the house. Really professional. I pray that you don't ever have to deal with a bad foundation cause it is not fun, but if you have to, only give Alpha a call and don't think twice. Easily one of the best contractors I've had the pleasure of working with and the best in their field! read more

A few months ago, there was a landslide into the backyard of my property. I found Alpha Structural through various news sources where similar landslides had occurred and they were able to assist the homeowners. I then contacted them for an estimate for the cleanup and removal of all the mud, trees, and debris that came down from the hillside. I was able to meet with one of their Structural Assessors, Albert, the next day. Albert came on time, was very informative, and gave me honest answers to all my questions. He understood my particular situation, and was more than patient until we could go ahead and start work. Albert was always available and very knowledgeable throughout the entire process. The crew that cleaned up and restored my backyard did an extraordinary job. The Project Supervisor, Ernesto, met with me on the day of the job, and explained to me the approach they were going to take to remove a rather significant amount of debris. The Foreman especially, Eny, and the rest of the crew, Pedro and Ronaldo, among many others, worked extremely hard in severe heat for several days. I am pleased with their work and their effort to try and return my property back to its original state. In my experience with Alpha Structural, this company has the experience and resources to help anyone with their hillside issues in an efficient, professional, and thorough manner. read more

I contacted Alpha to inspect a commercial property that I'm trying to buy. Albert showed up on time and was a true professional. He thoroughly inspected the property, broadly explained the issues to me on site and then provided a very comprehensive report as promised on time. I was very impressed with his work and professional demeanor. Also answered all of my follow-up questions with great clarity. Hire them with confidence. read more

Fast response, they were the first structural engineers to come to my property. They were very thorough and patient in answering all my questions. Highly recommend. read more

This team seems to perform high quality work but also has a reputation for being expensive. I had gotten a quote to rebuild a driveway retaining wall that is leaning. I also got a comparative quote from an other company. I told the VP named Evan, that once I got the soil study, I would give him a chance to review the study and revise his quote. I did so via Email and sadly I Evan never answered. It has been over 3 weeks and 2 emails. This is the second time Evan does not reply. Email, text or phone. But I kept my word to him. Thus I am hiring the other company who is extremely responsive and did some good work for me in the past. read more

Aldo came out to evaluate cracks that were forming in our house. He did a great job, explaining everything he was seeing and gave us advice on how to proceed. I felt like he was very honest in that there were some things that we need to do that may help the situation then he would return. I like that he didn't just jump to the most expensive repair. We are working on his suggestions and will definitely call them back. read more

Juve and Henry were extremely professional and did a great job today installing a tall deck post. They were on time, very efficient and finished the job in a timely manner with an eye towards detail.

Had Alpha Structural remove loose top soil on my slope before the rainy season. The team led by Sunn did a great job. Juvi worked tirelessly and set the tone for the project. Henry and Anthony hit the details to complete the project and set me up for the next phase of the renovation. The team was professional and worked diligently to complete the task. Alpha Structural two thumbs up! read more

Honest, forthcoming, get advice and expertise. These are the people to call. Felt expensive but we didn't end up hiring anyone.

They won't sell you solutions you don't need. Call them first or call them as a sanity check on other assessments.
