Overview
Applied Structural Engineering for Real Buildings and Real Conditions
Mass Timber Advisors works with homeowners, architects, and builders throughout Vermont and New Hampshire to assess existing structures, engineer new construction, clarify concerns, and design practical structural solutions.
Since beginning operations in May 2024, we have worked with over 250 homeowners, architects and contractors, helping them understand the condition of their buildings, assess the severity of observed issues, and determine clear, rational paths forward.
