Architectural Design and Historic Preservation Consulting Services

If you know me, you've heard me talk about working with my Dad, #thomaslzeiglerpe, who built a successful structural engineering business from the ground up. About 35 years ago, when I decided to be an architect, we joked that one day I would take over his business. I haven't (mostly for fear of ruining his legacy) but even better, I've had the privilege of working alongside him on over 85 projects in the last 15 years. Small, family-owned businesses survive by providing personal connection, high quality services, and value to the local economy. We are also the grandfather planning the church mission trips, the business sponsors of school programs and community fundraisers, and the mom volunteering with the bike team or local heritage site or zoning board. We care sincerely about our clients and our communities, and are always seeking to serve them better.This week, for PA #SmallBusinessWeek, consider offering a referral, posting a positive review, or sharing the social media page of a small business that you value in your community. We appreciate you, too! #familyowned #supportlocal #SmallBusinessSuccess @PAGenServices ... See MoreSee Less

Did you know...?That hard plaster surface covering historic walls and ceilings isn't fastened with screws like today's drywall boards. Horizontal strips of wood (lath) were fastened to wood framing with gaps left in between each lath. When the plaster was applied to the lath, often in a 3-coat process, the pasty plaster would squeeze in between the lath, cure in concealed clumps, and form "keys" that held the plaster finish in place. If you see your plaster sagging or bulging, don't panic. Consult a professional to determine whether there is a structural substrate problem, or, as often happens, the keys have broken and the plaster just needs a mechanical repair to help hold it in place.#WednesdayWisdom #LathAndPlaster #HistoricFinishes #PlasterWalls #KeepLearning ...
