I'm developing my basement and want to look into removing a telepost. Can anyone recommend a structural engineer or company that can do this?

I did the same thing in my basement. The telepost was right in the middle of a room I wanted to create. I used Grant Structural engineering. They sent someone out and gave me a stamped letter with three options. I chose the easiest one to do and used the company another beyond member works at to get the steel. I installed the steel and removed the post myself.

Would you mind PMing me the company you used to get the steel?

And out of curiosity what did you end up doing exactly?
