Mark, a former Maytag repairman, is a cheeful, efficient person. His price is much less than the $300 warranty Maytag offered after much back and forth. Plus I would've had to pay for a visit anyway.

Water leaking into the basement from a corner of the garage/house which leaked into the basement stairwell. It has happened infrequently since then, and does not produce much water. We called Mr. Fedora when it first happened and he said he would stop by. He never did. 2. Steel door between the garage and the house. We noticed it was falling out of the rough opening on the latch side. Investigation determined that the door was not nailed into the framing. We ran a reciprocating saw down the latch side and did not encounter any nails. We did not contact Mr. Fedora about this since he had been unresponsive in the past. We repaired this ourselves. 3. Throughout our occupancy, we have found many electrical outlets loosely screwed in place. When we insert a plug in the outlet, the whole outlet moves back and forth. 4. When replacing a bathroom wall fixture mounted over a mirror above the sink, we found the electrical wire was not in an electrical box. Mr. Fedora states this is OK when the fixture acts as the box (fixtures screwed to the wall with the closed frame of the fixture acting as the electrical box). We asked a contractor we've come to know who disagrees with Mr. Fedora 5. The sheetrock joints in the garage started cracking almost immediately. Mr. Fedora came out and re-taped and compounded the seams. This helped only for awhile and he made some excuse about the cause. Recently a carpenter was in our attic and went all the way to the garage space. It was discovered that the sheetrock is nailed directly to the trusses. Strapping should have been applied to the trusses (as is the case throughout the rest of the house) to isolate the sheetrock from any vibration from the trusses. 6. On May 30, 2013, a household member was coming up the stairs to the deck and proceeded to crash through the treads on one stair. Fortunately there was just deep bruising, but a ragged cut could have happened. The deck and stairs were made of composite decking, manufacturer unknown. Typical framing is 16" on center, and sometimes 12" on center. The stair treads were installed on 24" centers (3 stringers over a 48" span). We had always noticed a "wave" to the boards on the deck itself which we thought indicated cheap product. We now believe it was poor installation. We decided to apply new decking and proceeded to strip the old decking. We discovered that only every other joist had a joist hangar. The others were nailed through the rim lumber into the joist - NOT TO CODE, even by Mr. Fedora's admission.. There are specific screws to be used with composite decking. Dismantling the deck we found a mixture of screws. The wrong screws cause a "mushroom" effect around the screws. We asked our building inspector about the joist spacing for composite decking and he told us it depends on the manufacturers specifications, each one being different. We called Mr. Fedora about these issues. Regarding the deck material, Mr. Fedora at first stated that there have been recalls on some of the composite decking. I asked if ours was among them. He stated he did not know and how would he know. I asked where he obtained this information and he said he did not know. He said he would come by to check things out. It has been five or six weeks since I contacted Mr. Fedora about the deck issues and he has never called or come by as he promised.. Many things about our house are well done, particularly the basement which has always been dry. We did notice some detail work that was not done well, in addition to the inadequacies with the deck construction. We recently noticed that the ridge vent on the roof was sticking up on one end. The carpenter replacing the deck went up on the roof to investigate. The ridge vent was in a position to be blown off in a strong wind because the nails used to hold it in place were too short and, as well, there was no roofing compound used to seal these nails. I think Mr. Fedora is a competent contractor who used incompetent help. We initially dealt only with Mr. Fedora, but early on in the building process we were more or less forced to deal with Mr. Fedora's father-in-law who acted in charge of the financial aspects and also did some work on the house. His attitude and his capabilities were sorely lacking.

FAQs for basement leak repair projects in Holland, MA
The cost to finish a basement is $18,400 for the average homeowner. However, this cost could be as little as $2,800 or as much as $34,500, depending on the basement size and the materials needed. If your basement is already outfitted with electrical and plumbing, expect the cost to fall on the lower end.
For example, the drywall cost for this project averages around $1,750, but other features, like hiring a plumber, cost between $45 and $200 per hour.
The cost to remodel a basement is between $12,100 and $33,400 for the average homeowner. The price you pay can be as little as $3,500 or as much as $50,200, depending on the size and condition of your basement and the type of remodel you're doing.
If you're doing a simple project like adding a home office to your basement, you can expect to pay anywhere from $500 to $3,000. However, if you're adding a bathroom, which is an extensive project, you can expect to pay between $6,600 to $16,500.
Damp proofing and waterproofing are both methods to help keep your basement dry. Damp proofing keeps soil moisture from entering your basement, which is helpful since your basement is underground. Waterproofing, however, keeps both soil moisture and liquid water out of the basement, which is essential, especially if you live in a wet environment. Because it’s more protective, waterproofing typically costs more than damp proofing.
Although homeowners often use the terms basement remodeling and basement finishing interchangeably, they are quite different terms.
Finishing a basement is the process of taking a basement space that is not habitable and adding elements to make it usable. This includes adding plumbing, flooring, and insulation.
Remodeling a basement means taking an already existing finished basement and changing it, often by adding or removing walls, adding plumbing, or changing the existing flooring.
The cost of basement waterproofing is $4,950 for the average homeowner. However, you could end up paying between $600 and $14,000, depending on factors like basement size, waterproofing method, and the region you live in.
If you live in an area with heavy rainfall, you might be paying more for waterproofing than if you lived somewhere drier since waterproofing contractors would be in high demand. Likewise, a 500-foot basement costs between $2,500and $5,000 to waterproof, but that price rises significantly for a larger basement.
