Pros
- Prompt service
- Cost efficient
- Director has 22 years of experience in the engineering industry
- Member of the Engineers Australia, Board of Professional Engineers of Queensland, and Victorian Building Authority
Cons
- The firm has only been around for 2 years
- Doesn’t show its portfolio on online
Adelaide Structural Engineers has built a reputation for delivering prompt service to their past clients. A responsive and professional company is always a plus for us.
Prompt and responsive customer service allow the work to be done as soon as possible. This means the client can enjoy their home or property without worrying about potential structural problems.
The clients can also trust that the staff are knowledgeable. The service they’ll provide will be quality, as the firm is a member of Engineers Australia, the Board of Professional Engineers of Queensland, and the Victorian Building Authority.
The services provided by the company are also generally cost-efficient. The team tries to find the most cost-effective solution for the problems to not burden the clients.
This is made possible by the 22 years of experience of Raj Ingole, the firm’s director.
Raj is delightful to work with. He gives a detailed report of the structural changes to be done and is overall very professional.
A drawback, however, is the firm has only been around for two years, which could raise some eyebrows and cause some clients to doubt its services.
Rest assured, however, that the staff have way longer years of experience in the engineering industry.
One thing we were disappointed about, though, is the lack of information on their website. Only a little is said about the company’s history, and its portfolio is also not readily available.
A portfolio is essential for companies like this, as it will give us a glimpse of what they’ve done and what they can do.

Pros
- 34 years of experience
- Good reputation backed by a great portfolio
- Member of the Engineers Australia, Board of Professional Engineers of Queensland, Queensland Building and Construction Commission, Concrete Institute of Australia, Australian Steel Institute, and Victorian Building Authority
- Great customer service
Cons
- Costs a bit more than expected
- Can be difficult to reach at times
Structural Systems has been working on numerous construction projects for over 34 years, including the construction of residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional structures.
Their celebrated reputation is backed by a portfolio of projects ranging from single-family homes to apartment complexes.
We were impressed by the projects that they took part in. This earned them a spot on this list.
Being a member of various engineering organisations like Engineers Australia, the Board of Professional Engineers of Queensland, and the Queensland Building and Construction Commission further boosted our confidence in this firm.
We also appreciate how willing the staff are to help everyone. You can call them and ask about a possible project, and they’ll answer very professionally.
Although they try to provide cost-effective solutions, the cost can still be higher than we initially expected.
The company carries a three-decade-long experience, so, understandably, they charge more. The clients are paying for the materials, their time, and their experience and reputation.
The company can also be hard to reach at times. It’s probably because of the number of clients that they are handling, but there were times when the clients couldn’t be immediately entertained.
When you are able to talk to them, however, you will be provided with the most professional service possible.

Pros
- Engineers are very professional
- Wide range of services
- 37 years of experience
- Good reputation backed by a great portfolio
Cons
- Costly services
- Customer service needs improvement
Clients looking for experienced structural engineers will naturally like TMK Consulting Engineers the most on this list. It has been in service since 1935, and its reputation has remained unblemished.
Our favourite thing about TMK Consulting Engineers is its wide range of services. They offer not just structural engineering services but also civil, forensic, electrical, and more.
Clients who need more than just structural engineering don’t have to go out of their way and look for a different firm.
TMK Consulting Engineers also boast an extensive portfolio. They have the most extensive and diverse portfolio on this list.
However, while the engineers are very professional, the reception staff’s service needs improvement. Some clients have also expressed disappointment in their experience with the reception.
Another disappointing thing about TMK is its pricing. Although their experience and portfolio earn them a right to charge more, we believe the pricing can be improved.
Nonetheless, we believe this is perfect for those who value experience and don’t mind spending extra dollars.

Pros
- Great customer service
- Reliable with deadlines
- 14 years experience
- Member of Project Management Institute and Consult Australia
Cons
- The website isn’t secured and not designed optimally
- Communication hiccups can happen
Epic Projects and Consulting has lived up to its name by delivering epic projects to its clients for the last 14 years.
The company specialises in providing consulting engineering and project management services.
Epic Projects and Consulting has served clients like the South Australian Film Corporation, the Government of South Australia, Walter Brooke, and Stellar Homes Group.
It’s also a member of the Project Management Institute and Consult Australia, which boosts its credibility in the industry. Potential clients may find it easy to trust them.
Epic Projects and Consulting’s reliability when it comes to deadlines earned its spot on this list. They have been praised by former clients for meeting the deadlines they’ve set.
We also appreciate how fast they are at responding to queries and requests. If you encounter an issue that needs to be resolved immediately, try reaching out to them.
Although they respond promptly, occasional miscommunication may happen. There were times when they weren’t on the same page with the clients or understood things differently, but these things can be fixed.
What we were disappointed about when we first tried to reach out to them was their website. It isn’t secured and designed optimally.
The lack of visual appeal and the overload of information on the landing page can put off some potential clients.
However, this is an aesthetic complaint and doesn’t really reflect the kind of service that they’ll provide.

Pros
- The principal engineer has over 40 years of experience
- Company has been around for 28 years
- Wide range of services
Cons
- Junior engineers need more supervision
- Efficiency needs improvement
Magryn & Associates has been offering quality structural engineering services for 28 years. The directors have an extensive understanding of different fields in engineering, not just structural.
The principal engineer, Terry Magryn, has over 40 years of engineering experience. He closely monitors the projects, so the end results are close to how clients envision them.
We also like that they offer a wide range of services. They provide services in different engineering fields and take on projects in various industries.
Their residential projects especially impressed us. Their services include designing new houses, making additions, and retaining walls.
One thing that may concern potential clients, however, is that the company has a lot of junior engineers that need more supervision. Some clients experienced problems with the younger engineers that were assigned to them.
Nevertheless, the senior engineers will still look at the reports and plans to ensure everything is correct and no new problems will arise.
Their turnaround time also needs improvement. It must be because they have a lot of clients, but delays often happen.
Considering its experience and reputation, we still believe that Magryn & Associates deserves a spot on this list.
