Ronchetti Masonry & Waterproofing Inc

As always it went great. I've used them for15 years & would recommend them.

FYI, I just joined Angie's List so I have only a few reviews at this time

It went extremely well, within budget and on time.  The rebuilt wall looks good and should stand up for many more years.

Originally I contacted Charlie to get a quote on putting in french drain in our basement.  After he had come to our home, he gave us a quote for the french drain, but recommended we first try and see if we can prevent the water from coming in by putting in a water basin and a drain in the back of the house.  Considering we were not ready to finish the basement yet, but wanted to keep the water out, we went with his recommendation and were so glad we did.  His solution worked and it was one of the best investments we had made so far.  His team did quality job, and was on time, on schedule, and on budget.  We couldn't be happier with the work they had done.

Charlie Ronchetti & Company did an outstanding job, on schedule and on budget.  The workmanship was first-rate, the workers were polite and professional and they cleaned-up as the job progressed.  My basement is ready for refurbishment now that the walls have been restored properly. 
Originally, I asked Mr. Ronchetti to provide a quotation to install a French drain, but I decided, after doing more research, that it would be more cost-effective to just restore the walls, as there was no significant moisture issues that could not be controlled by a high quality dehumidifier (75-100 pints/hour).  (Years earlier, I had Mr. Ronchetti install a double sump pump, which was highly effective keeping water out of the basement during heavy storms or post-Winter drainage).  The 50-year old original stucco had separated and was falling off of the poured concrete walls and needed repair.  I contacted Mr. Ronchetti to perform the work and scheduled it.  All of the work was completed exactly as promised.  The price was fair and competitive.  I know this because I obtained four other quotations.  I would hire Mr. Ronchetti again whenever I have need for any kind of masonry work and most strongly recommend him and his fine staff.

They did a good work and it all went fine. I am happy so far.

This company prices were fair, they were prompt and they did what they said they would do .

The job went excellent. I cannot say enough about Charlie and his crew. They worked very hard for several days installing the trench, working around obstacles, and leaving a smooth concrete finish and clean work area. Charlie is extremely knowledgeable and answered all my questions before, during, and after the job. He even called me back while he was on vacation to answer a related concern I had and suggest a fix. A true pleasure to work with.

I believe the owner is Charles. He came to my house, looked at the problem and explained what my plumber had done wrong in trying to fix the flooding problem in my driveway. He was very busy and was honest about hi schedule. It took about 6 weeks for him to get to me but he showed with a helper and an electrician and completed the job which included installing 2 heavy duty pumps plus the 220 wiring. Seems to have done the trick. We've a few rain storms that would've overwhelmed the previous system but his has handled it with no problem at all. Maybe now I won't freak everytime I hear we're going to get 3" of rain

The work was excellent. They were professional. He spent a lot of time going over the work that needed to be done. He explained everything well and the work looks really nice.

After tearing up part our finished basement due to mold damage, we called Ronchetti as one of our three basement waterproofing companies for a quote.  Their quote come out in the middle, but they appeared to be the most knowledgeable.  Also, they were very committed to keeping the water out of the basement, rather than just trying to control it once it was in the house.  They gave us a quote for leveling two sidewalks and regrading underneath our porch, as well as installing a french drain. Charles was very open with us that once we did the work outside the house we might not need a french drain.  We decided to just go with the work outside and, fingers crossed, the basement is dry!!
I feel confident that we went with the right company and appreciated the thorough job Charles did during the site visit.  He was there for an hour listening to out concerns, hearing the history of the project, and exploring the site.  The price did seem a little high for two days of work, but I think you pay for what you get.  This was quality work!  Also, though they reported a month wait, they were able to get in there sooner.  If you want to solve your problem, these are the guys!

Charles was able to give us a quote on the spot, and told us to call his office if we accepted and to get a tentative time. When I called, I was told that they would be available the last week of September (about 6 weeks out). 
I received a call mid-September confirming that they would be preforming the work at that time, and would call the day before they arrived. It was very rainy (causing delays) and I was not contacted again. I called in mid-October and asked "what happened?" and was told that they could have a team out tomorrow. I accepted, and the workers showed up on-time the next day.
There had been a communication issue, and the workers had arrived with bluestone (not brick) for the steps, no equipment to pull the bushes, and no jackhammers for demolition. The team called the office for the supplies/tools they needed and immediately set to work on what they could accomplish - such as demolishing the concrete apron by hand with mattocks. While less noisy/disruptive to us and the neighbors it seemed really inefficient. By the end of the 1st day they had removed all of the damaged brick, the bushes, and re-cast the apron. 
On the second day, they finished the work (repairing the stairs, grading the soil & adding ice& water shield & gravel, and righting the tipping retaining wall). The grade appeared inadequate - I guess it's just hard to judge 5 percent with your eyes - but a water test showed it to be OK. I also wish they had compacted the soil (I assumed this was included, but did not get verbally or in writing that they would). The bill arrived a week later for the full amount (they did not require a deposit); exactly as quoted.
We've not had any major rains since then, but there was no water infiltration during Hurricane Sandy, and the steps look pretty good.

Charles was great to schedule and plan the job. We talked about the different options and found a great solution, which I am really happy with. Charles took the time to understand the problem and find the best solution possible. It involved quite a bit of work which was done very professional and as clean as possible. Charles and the workers were very professional and knowledgeable.
Several months after the work was done I contacted Charles again regarding the grade of the garage floor. Water from the car would run into an area we did not want it in. That was something he had anticipated but there was no better solution at the time.
He came out and resurfaced the part of the garage and fixed the problem AT NO COST. I offered to pay for it since it was not really a problem with his initial work but he did not want to get paid for it.
He obviously stands behind his work and guarantees it.
Very professional and very high quality at a great price. I would definitely use Charles again and recommend him.
I had also gotten estimates from another popular local company for basement waterproofing (with a pet in their name) and they were more expensive and did not come up with the easier solution. I also did not like how they approached the problem with the discharged water probably affecting your neighbor.
So definitely go with Charles!

we called to replace battery backup, cost over $300,00 on 9-5-12.
Battery went dead on 10-18-12. we are waiting for a call back.

I contacted Ronchetti to evaluate/estimate the job.  Charles scheduled the appointment quickly, arrived on time with his foreman and provided a very thorough and honest assessment of the work.  He provided various options with estimates on the spot and helped me evaluate each approach.  He's extremely knowledgeable and very detail oriented.   Ronchetti started the job 2 days later.  They arrived on time and the entire crew was extremely professional.  The end result was exactly what I expected. I would highly recommend Charles and his crew and will certainly contact him in the future when I need additional work.

It went very well they had planned to do the work in January of 2011 but I asked them to keep me in mind if someone canceled or if they found an opening in their schedule.  Several weeks passed and they called to let me know that they have a new opening in October of 2010 and would I want them then.  I agreed to the October date.  They were there on time and moved everything in my cellar to the center so they could perform the work.  Everything was fine.

This was the solution he devised after consulting with me on various approaches and our budget considerations. He was very thorough in examining the situation and recommending other procedures to more fully realize basement waterproofing. His crew was very professional and fast, getting in and out with minimal fuss. He described the procedure thoroughly, including the deconstruction to get to the wall in question. His crew navigated in between tight pipes and a less-than-optimal space in an old basement. He came in under his estimate and consequently charged me less.

I called, got an estimate fairly quickly ... work got scheduled and done in a timely manner. All pretty simple and stress free.

Very professional. Punctual and good work. A little pricey but the quality of work and service is there. 

Ronchetti is a terrific company! Very responsive, friendly, and courteous. Plus, less than a week after we had the work done, there was a major rainstorm and our basement, which had evidence of multiple floods from the previous owners, was bone dry. The owner personally visits each job site to make sure the plan is correct.

Everyone I interacted with was professional, on time, and good. I went back and forth a bit on exactly what scope of work I wanted done, and both Klaus and Charles were very patient and helped me walk through the various options.As far as I can tell, I think they did an excellent job: the basement has been totally dry since (we had just a bit of weeping in the corners before, so it's a bit hard to know yet for sure how it will work out); and an insulation contractor commented that he was impressed by how well they sealed in the basement windows with concrete. The only thing that I wasn't 100% thrilled with was that the concrete floor in one room in the basement was a real mess, and even with putting down a much thicker band of concrete than a normal french drain, there are cracks and it looks pretty awful. I  don't think it's their fault--I think the floor was in such bad shape that it just needed to be replaced, and in retrospect I wish they had told me that during the work rather than afterward so that I could have had it done all at once rather than call them back at some later point.On the other hand I can see how  they may have thought that it would seem pushy to recommend additional work beyond the original estimate. In any case, overall I was very pleased and when I do get around to doing that concrete floor I will certainly call them.

They came out and did a good job. I'm happy with the work that they provided, and would use them again in the future if needed.

Wonderful service! The owner himself (Charlie) was in contact with us numerous times. At first I was nervous about the young crew who was going to do the work in my basement, but was quickly put at ease.  They were extremely polite and very professional. I would also like to note that Klaus was the representative who came to my home for my estimate. Such a kind man who explained everything to me in plain terms so that I would understand. My husband is a mechanical engineer but was unable to be there. I had several other companies over for estimates but felt disrespected and treated as if I was clueless. The pricing was a little higher than some others but I feel much happier and safer having had this company do the work. The small amount of extra money was worth it! Great company!!! Oh and one other thing! They actually were able to move up the date of service!!

Highly recommend.

Super job.  The system works very well and they did a great job cleaning up after the work was done.

Charles and Clare were knowledgeable and clear on the project process and where and what the unknowns were. They helped me prioritize other parts of the project and gave good advice on how to proceed. They were very responsive to my questions. Charles was committed to doing things right.

They did a great job and showed up when they said they would, I would not hesitate to recommend this company.
