STEN Engineer has been a pleasure to work with. We have only utilized their services for structural plans after we hand over the architectural from our drafter. The transition is always smooth. When Evgeny tells you he will get the plans done by a certain date he meets that deadline. If the plans receive corrections, he takes care of those in a timely manner. Additionally, he has done site visits beforehand and structural observation for an added fee during construction. I would recommend STEN Engineering! read more

My husband and I are very happy that we turned to Evgeny. He proved to be very professional and punctual. He came and inspected our roof, as we were planning to install solar panels with Tesla. However, Tesla refused to provide a 100% offset and only offered 66%, claiming that there were issues with our roof. So we started looking for an engineer who could assess the real condition of the roof. Evgeny arrived right on time and did a thorough inspection. All the paperwork was ready the very next day. We 100% recommend him! read more

We highly recommend Evgeny and would hire him again for engineering needs. read more

STEN ENGINEERING is the real deal! I hired them to create the structural plans for my ADU in the city of Torrance, and they delivered exactly as promised. The plans were super detailed, easy to follow, and helped everything go smoothly with the city. You can tell they know their stuff and care about getting it right. Additionally, the price was very fair--especially considering the level of quality and professionalism. No hidden fees, no surprises, just solid work from start to finish. If you're building an ADU or need structural plans, I highly recommend STEN Engineering. They made a stressful process feel easy. Thanks again! read more

Evgeny was great from the start! He came out saw the project, was transparent about the pricing, the process, and delivered quality work right away. I reached out for an ADU garage conversion project in the San Fernando Valley. Plans got approved first try, and we also had several discussions around the optimal floor plan before submitting to city for approval. After bad service with my former designer it was time to look for a better option and I'm so thankful I did. True partner, would highly recommend! read more

I have gotten a couple of full set plans done. The plans have perfect details that contractors can understand and the best part is fast city approval not waiting on multiple rounds of corrections. Evgeny is very professional. Price is very reasonable to other "architect" who aren't even licensed engineers. read more

Sten engineering. We contacted Eugene for structural engineering services for new construction. From start to finish of the process he supported our project and assisted with revisions from city. Performed visual inspections for footing and framing. Very experienced and knowledgeable. Thank you. read more

Evgeny and his team have been great to work with on our outdoor patio project. Communication was fast and thorough as we got started with the design and they were able to provide plans within the timeframe they specified. Along the way, we had several questions (can this beam size be changed, what is the deflection angle for this bracket, etc) and Evgeny was always quick to respond. He was also extremely helpful and timely with the site observation reporting required by our inspector. Should I need structural engineering again in the future, I wouldn't hesitate to work with Engeny and his team again. read more

I called Eugene to figure out why our 1953 attic was cracking all night long, and while this wasn't something he could address, he was very patient and generous with his time advising me on how to proceed.

Evgeny from Sten Engineering is my go to Engineer when i need the best and reliable structural plans and calculations for my projects. Very profecional and reliable will keep sending my projects to him read more

I called Evgeny this morning after a quick yelp search and he was able to come by for an inspection and consultation within 3 hours. We are redoing our kitchen and needed more guidance about how to reinforce a wall we intend to have removed. Evgeny spent time inspecting the space before sharing his recommendation and walking us through what it all meant. He patiently answered our questions and I am so glad we contacted him. He recommended an additional reinforcement that our contractor hadn't, and urged us to increase the size of a ceiling beam to increase the structural integrity - really appreciate a conservative approach when it comes to structure and safety! Would absolutely recommend Evgeny and STEN Engineering, and will be contacting them again for all future projects. read more

Reached out to Evgeny to come check out our property making sure the wall can come down. He show up on time and was detailed checked everything gave us few options. Overall straight to point and very informative.. definitely gave us a peace of mind. read more

Eugene came by to check out a rental property I recently purchased after demolition, just to confirm if there were any issues with my current plans. Thankfully, he confirmed that no structural work was needed since all the interior walls were non-load bearing. He did mention that the joists might sag slightly if all the walls were removed, so he recommended scissoring the existing 2x4 joists with 2x6s, using staggered nails every 12 inches to reinforce the roof. He took his time walking me through everything in detail, and I really appreciated how clear and informative he was. I'll definitely be calling him first when I need engineer plans for the next project. read more

Evgeny was extremely helpful in evaluating the status of my porch roof and its supports, and gave me useful advice for addressing the small issues he discovered. I would go back to him for bigger jobs in a heartbeat. read more

Evgeny is very quick to respond and straight forward. I really enjoyed working with him.

Evgeny was great to work with. Highly professional and exudes confidence in his experience and work. He was able to quickly design and engineer our plans for a home renovation and addition and carry us through the entire Permit process with Los Angeles. Evgeny is someone I would definitely hire again for future projects. And I found his rates to be fair and reasonable. read more

Eugene did a great evaluation of my kitchen's weight bearing walls. He checked very carefully and thoroughly. He even went all the way to the crawl space to verify the foundation. Apart from that, he gave us great advice for not wasting money on knocking some walls and a chimney down, which can bring a lot of risk. He saved us from making a stupid mistake which some contractors had encouraged us to make. I would love to work with Eugene again when I start the kitchen remodeling. He is the best structure engineer I have worked with! He also gave us an affordable charge on the evaluation. I strongly recommend him! read more

I had the difficult task of remodeling my home. I needed to remove a wall to make my living room kitchen open planned and a wall put up to turn my spacious master bedroom into two rooms for my sons. I sought out a contractor and I thought they would handle everything needed to be done. For extra fees they could find me a structural engineer and architect so to save some money I did it myself. I found Sten Engineering on Yelp, they didn't have any reviews but after a lengthy phone call, they were able to put my mind at ease. They were pretty fast at coming up with a proposal and and everything was professional and covered all the bases.I was still very happy with my decision. They got the measurements they needed and drew up the plans in what I would take much longer. They got their work seen by the city and there was a lot of going back and forth with corrections. I felt very comfortable with Sten Engineering and felt I got my money's worth. I hope it goes this way with my contractor and the building process. Thank you very much! read more

I needed to solve a layout problem in my senior living facility and Evgeny took time to figure things out. Now the revised plans were approved by the city. Excellent service and Very great Value! Highly recommended! read more

I met Sten Engineering in the Summer and came to their office after they contacted about the soft story work needing done on my building. I like that they were pro active and contacted me instead of vice versa. Their office was very welcoming and professional looking, not what I was expecting from a start up company but excuse my ignorance. The building they are in says it's visitors must wear a mask at all times and these gentlemen offer hand sanitizer as you come in the office. I felt very safe. We discussed the process of the work to be done and I felt it was very affordable, cheaper than the bigger structural engineers I had spoken with. But this in no way shape or form diminished the work they did for me. I got my plans in no time from Sten Engineering. I appreciate everything Sten Engineering did for me. 10 star service! Thank you!!! read more

Eugene and STEN made an immediate impression with their consultative approach over the phone and prompt scheduling. We had previously called a number of engineering firms in both LA and Ventura counties for an expert opinion on the roof structure of our new home. They were all non-responsive or refused to take the job. During the site visit, Eugene took his time to survey the areas in question, thoroughly educate us from a technical standpoint, and outline our options. Eugene is very knowledgeable and consultative. He left us with peace of mind and we will definitely be turning to STEN for engineering services in the future. read more

When constructing my ADU, I was told I needed a structural engineer to draw up the plans. I did a quick Google search and found these guys. I called and polite gentleman answered and passed me to Evgeny who was very informative and helpful on the phone. We arranged a time to meet because he needed to make measurements and he made the whole procedure go very smoothly. He even offered me a contractor to do the construction who was very professional compared to the many cowboys out there. If these guys keep going what they are doing, they will be a very profitable business indeed. read more

We live in a studio and our shower is out in the open. This caused mold issues so we needed to have it enclosed and ventilated. I contacted contractor and they said they could do the job but first of I needed engineers to draw up the plans to get clearance from the city for the work to be done. They recommended STEN Engineering, I called and spoke to Evgeny and he talked me through the process and cost. He was very patient with me because he could tell this was all new to me. I went to the office which is COVID-19 compliant in my eyes, mask wearing, hand sanitizer on supply, and met his partner Tomik. These are both family men and you can tell they are very caring and attentive at home from how they were with me. I only worked with them for a few weeks but my time with them made a big impression, I wish them the best of success. Thank you guys. read more
