Thumbtack customerJun 2026

Mr. Clayborn responded to my initial inquiry very quickly which brought me peace of mind. He communicated with me even after normal business hours. He was punctual and very professional in addressing every one of my concerns. He remained on-site until my issues were addressed. I highly recommend him should you ever need his services.

I received a thorough and informative assessment on the structural supports required for reframing a load-bearing wall. Richard offered a wealth of knowledge and presented very professional throughout the process.

Richard was great to work with and helped me figure out a plan for framing my basement. He was really helpful in proposing multiple solutions, flexible on the work that needed to be done, and provided reasonable pricing for each option he offered. He's a true professional and I would definitely work with him again on any engineering/architectural needs I have.

Richard did an outstanding job for us. I would have picked all 5 items if possible. He visited our site and had concept drawings to us in one week. His fee's were significantly lower than others and he did not require payment prior to doing the work. 5 stars for Richard.

Richard responded lightning fast and was able to accommodate my needs. Very professional, very knowledgeable. Highly recommend.

David H.Apr 2022

after setting down with Richard and conversing with him we were impressed not with his credentials but his personality, his presentation and genuine interest in our needs. Richard talked to us in layman's terms so we were able to understand our needs better. Our next project will certainly envolve Richard.

Prompt and very easy to work with.

Ivan B.Jan 2020

Richard found a very cost effective solution to fix the sagging first floor of my house. I highly recommend hiring Richard before you call one of the large local firms that specialize in floor and foundation. Those firms will not send an engineer to evaluate your situation and provide personalized solutions.

Janae R.Oct 2019

Richard was great to work with. He was able to walk us through everything in a way we could understand. He provideed some wonderful suggestions, we hadn't originally considered, with our remodel. His turnaround time on the work product was excellent. I would highly recommend him to others.

Jim A.Sep 2019

Richard was the first and only for awhile that answered my request. He answered my request almost immediately and was always available when I had a question. Not only was he prompt but very well educated in the construction industry. I am very happy with Richard and highly recommend him for any structural project that you will need an engineer for.

Mr. Clayborn is extremely knowledgeable in his field and was able to answer all my questions. He was also highly responsive to emails and calls regarding the project, as well as being quick to quote the job, which has not been my experience with other engineers.
