I have worked with Rob and Jason at Anchor as both a project manager in the glazing industry and as a drafter. In my experience they have always responded promptly with thought out solutions and helped understand fully the requirements of the task at hand. Keep up the good work!

We had a structural remodel on our mid-century modern home. The engineers from Anchor did a great job coordinating with the contractor, truss manufacturer, and framers. They were friendly and professional, and we were very lucky to have their expertise on our project.

Report
My initial interaction with Anchor Engineering was as a customer when I invited them to inspect a home I was under contract on. Both their administrative staff and the on-site engineer were incredibly professional and responsive. They took the time to understand what I was looking to achieve and delivered beyond all expectations within a very compressed timeline. Professionally, as a commercial real estate broker, I have referred Anchor Engineering to colleagues, clients, and buyers looking for answers they can trust.
In every instance, the entire team at Anchor treated each project as if it were their own. If you have a need for a structural engineer anywhere within the greater metro Denver area, Anchor Engineering should be your first call.
