I'm looking for recommendations for a structural engineer to evaluate
sinking floors in my 100-year-old Berkeley (Calif.) flatlands home -
you know, land of foundation-rattling quakes and soil-saturating winter
rains. i've read through all the threads here, and am ready to start
calling but would appreciate hearing about good experiences - or bad
ones, for that matter.

Don't know any, but here's my suggestion: call Matt Cantor, who runs a
home inspection business here. (You can find his ad, as well as his
weekly column, in the /Berkeley Daily Planet/.) He's a good guy and can
point you in the right direction, as well as maybe answering other
questions you might have.
