Structural engineering for Coplay homes

Coplay’s a small, close-knit borough, and a lot of its homes are older twins and rowhomes built solid generations ago. After this many years, settling, basement moisture, and the odd crack are pretty normal, and most of it is fixable once you know what’s behind it.

I’m basically next door in Fullerton, so I can swing by and take a look without much wait. You’ll get a straight answer on whether it’s serious and a clear plan if it needs one.

Common in Coplay: older twin and rowhome settlement, basement moisture and wall movement, and wall-removal on updates.

Coplay questions I get

Is my Coplay basement crack letting water in, or is it structural?

Sometimes both, sometimes neither. I’ll look at the crack and the wall and tell you whether it’s a moisture issue, a structural one, or just cosmetic.

Do you do small jobs in Coplay, or only big ones?

Both. A quick look and a straight answer is just as important as a full design, and I’m right up the road anyway.

Do I need a structural engineer, or just a contractor?

An engineer tells you what is actually wrong and what the right fix is, then your contractor does the work. Getting the engineer first means you do not pay for the wrong repair, and for structural work most townships require stamped drawings from an engineer anyway.

How much does a structural engineer cost?

It depends on the job. A quick assessment is on the low end and full stamped drawings cost more. Either way you get a clear price up front before any work starts.
