In need of a structural engineer

[Anthony Theokary]

Can anyone help please. I took down a wall in my home I just bought and I’m in need of a structural engineer to see if it was load bearing.

The house is 13’ x 30’ the joists run from party wall to party wall. It is a row home. The home was extended some time ago about 6’ or 7’. The wall in question was on top of a joist in the basement and below a joist on the second floor with a top and bottom plate and 2x4 studs. It was also about 1’ in front of where the old back of the house was.  The wall had an opening to the kitchen. when I took the dry wall of the at the opening of the door on both sides where 2 2x4s together that had plaster wrapped around them about 2/3 of the way up them. There was no header on top of the opening though. The other thing is that the roofs pitch is quite drastic from the front of the house to the old back of the house. About 12”-14” in about a  22’ span
