What Our Clients Say About Our Structural Engineering in Gold Coast

Ostanes were great right from the outset - they responded very promptly even on the weekend and we had the inspection and structural engineering report within two days of first contacting them. The admin staff and engineer were both very friendly, helpful and communicative - we'd be happy to use them again. Thank you!
Ostanes have been fantastic to deal with from start to finish. Prompt turnaround times, great correspondence and advice. A small project for a Home Builder for a bathroom extension was made easy by their engineering know how and support every step of the way. Would highly recommend. Thanks to the whole team!
We had a underpinning company quote us $10,000+ to fix an issue with our house foundation. I wanted to get a 2nd opinion and that of a structural engineer because i didn't want to pay for something i didn't need. Shoja was very knowledgeable and thorough. He checked our entire house for structural issues and concluded that the house was fine and didn't need underpinning!! They also don't carry put work that they recommend to avoid conflict of interest. I am so glad we found them, it has saved us tens of thousands of dollar of unnecessary work

Shoja really saved my skin with such a quick turnaround. I was buying a house and had some concerns about a crack in the render. He went next day and got me the report 2 hours later.
