Rebecca Taylor
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!
Adrian Roe
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!
Lisan Yip
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
Johanna Derbyshire

Very promptly dealt with our engineering needs.

Kirby Hogan
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. The sellers agent met him there and Shoja abstained from telling him any unnecessary information. I would 100% use their services again and recommend them to anybody.
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your experience! We're so glad Dr. Shoja could assist you quickly and effectively during such an important decision. Providing fast, discreet, and professional service is what we strive for, especially in time-sensitive situations like yours. We truly appreciate your recommendation and look forward to supporting you again whenever needed!

Dr Shoja and his team are friendly, professional and very responsive. Ostanes was able to come on site and provide their assessment with a very short turnaround and have been very helpful even after the job was done. No hesitations to engage with them again

FAQs – Structural Engineering in Sunshine Coast

Do you provide certification for existing decks and carports?

Yes, we offer retrospective structural certification for existing structures such as decks, patios, pergolas, and carports. If your structure was built without council approval, we conduct a thorough inspection to ensure it complies with current Australian standards and Sunshine Coast Council regulations, and we provide the required engineering documentation to support your application.

Definitely. Our engineers are highly familiar with the requirements of the Sunshine Coast Council and other regional authorities. Whether you need pre-construction advice or support with retrospective approvals, we’ll guide you through the documentation, submission, and approval process, making it as stress-free as possible.

A standard structural inspection typically takes 1 to 2 hours on-site, depending on the complexity of the structure. After the inspection, we aim to deliver the engineering report within 2 to 3 business days, although express delivery is available if needed urgently.

Yes, we frequently partner with local builders, draftsmen, and project managers to ensure smooth communication and seamless integration into your building timeline. We can provide engineering designs and certificates that fit into their workflows and are always available for clarification or revisions if required.

We provide certification for a wide range of structures, including:

  • Residential homes and extensions

  • Retaining walls and foundations

  • Carports, sheds, and garages

  • Pergolas and verandas

  • Granny flats and auxiliary dwellings

  • Commercial fit-outs and steel framing systems

Absolutely. Every structural engineer on our team is fully qualified, registered, and carries up-to-date professional indemnity and public liability insurance. We comply with all relevant Australian engineering codes and uphold strict quality assurance processes.

Yes – designing for coastal areas like the Sunshine Coast requires special attention to corrosion risks due to salt-laden air. We select appropriate materials and apply design principles that reduce long-term degradation. This helps improve structural durability and reduces maintenance costs over time.

Our pricing is transparent and competitive. A basic certification starts from around $550, depending on the type and complexity of the structure. We provide a clear, fixed quote upfront with no hidden fees, so you know exactly what to expect before we begin.

Yes, we understand that some projects require fast action – especially if you’re finalizing a property sale or preparing for an inspection. We offer express service options with turnaround times as fast as 24 hours, depending on the project scope and availability.

Getting started is simple! You can fill out our quick online form to request a quote, or give us a call to speak directly with our engineering team.
