Open Concept Engineering celebrates National Good Neighbor Day by offering free structural safety consultations to Chesterfield homeowners this September.

Chesterfield, MO (PRUnderground) September 12th, 2026

Good neighbors don't just wave hello. Sometimes they make sure your foundation isn't cracking. In honor of National Good Neighbor Day, Chesterfield-based Open Concept Engineering is giving back to the community that built its business, one blueprint at a time.

The firm, known locally for its work reinforcing aging foundations and reimagining cramped floor plans into open-concept living spaces, is spotlighting a recent project on Baxter Ridge Lane where a structural assessment helped a family avoid a costly foundation failure before it became a neighborhood safety issue.

"We see ourselves as neighbors first and engineers second," said Scott Reid, founder of Open Concept Engineering. "Good Neighbor Day is a reminder that the strongest communities are the ones where people look out for each other's homes, not just their own. A stable foundation next door is good for everyone on the block."

To celebrate, Open Concept Engineering is offering free 1-hour structural safety consultations to Chesterfield homeowners with homes under 2,000 square feet, from October 1 through October 10. Consultations, conducted by the firm's engineering intern, cover visible foundation cracks, sagging floors, and load-bearing wall questions for anyone considering a renovation. Homeowners can book by calling the office or mentioning "Good Neighbor Day" when scheduling online.

Chesterfield residents can reach Open Concept Engineering at (314) 885-4661 or visit their website https://www.openconcepteng.com/ to reserve a consultation slot before spots fill up.
