"In summary I have to say Richard was  excellent!  He came when he said he would and finished the work when he said it would be finished.  As I solicited multiple bids for the work NE Renovations was among the most competitive.  As the work was completed I was so pleased I ended requesting he come back to do additional jobs.  He was very accomadating and even explained various options on how best to accomplish the additional work.

"However, as of Monday it will be almost a week since I have heard back and the only feedback I got was a promise to get back to me by the end of the day with a quote after I EMAILED HIM!
I have had so many handmen and contractors not call me back, or are unavailable. I was really excited to find someone and get started.
I felt like it shouldn't take this long to get an estimate on the work and I would rather be told straight forward that the project would not be big enough or the schedule did not work. If I am having this much trouble getting an estimate, what about the work?
We are trying to decide whether or not to put our home on the market and this price weighs in our decision."

"The initial work was done as scheduled.  Holes were drilled in the floor where the slab had dropped and a concrete slurry was pumped, under pressure raising the affected areas.  At a point the slurry being pumped into one hole would start to come out of nearby holes.  The mechanic told me this was as much as they could do.  He, and his assistant cleaned up and left.
I was not satisfied since the floor had been raised only about halfway.
I contacted the office and they sent an individual to check the job.  He agreed that it was not satisfactory and assured me that the mechanic would be able to complete the job once the initial slurry had cured. 
Several days later the workers returned and told me that their instructions were to complete the job and not to leave until I was satisfied.
They were able to complete the job to my satisfaction.

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

For Pittsfield homes, prioritize poured concrete foundations with robust waterproofing to handle local freeze-thaw cycles, and use hot-dip galvanized steel beams for moisture resistance. Pressure-treated lumber rated for New England climates is ideal, and closed-cell spray foam insulation helps prevent thermal bridging. Always choose materials that comply with MA building codes and are suitable for local soil conditions and common architectural styles.

Helpful?

In Pittsfield, structural engineering work often impacts HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems, especially in older homes with fieldstone foundations. Installing new beams may require rerouting ductwork, while foundation repairs can affect water lines or boilers. Updates to insulation or electrical panels are sometimes necessary. Major structural changes may also trigger code upgrades for energy efficiency or safety, so coordinate with local professionals early.

Helpful?

In Pittsfield, be cautious of quotes that are unusually low, lack soil analysis for foundation inspection, or skip necessary permits and MA building codes. Absence of local references or experience with historic homes is a concern. Incomplete structural repair drawings, no warranty, or pressure to sign quickly are also red flags. Choose professionals familiar with Pittsfield’s weather patterns, soil types, and common home construction.

Helpful?

In Pittsfield, immediate action is needed if you see foundation cracks leaking water before winter, floors sagging more than half an inch, or basement walls bowing. Issues affecting load-bearing walls or emergency exits also require prompt attention. Stable, minor cracks or cosmetic concerns can be monitored, but plan major repairs before winter or during summer’s dry weather for optimal structural repair results.

Helpful?

In Pittsfield, it’s time to schedule structural engineering projects if you notice foundation settlement after freeze-thaw cycles, water intrusion in the basement during spring, or cracks wider than 1/4 inch in fieldstone foundations. Watch for sagging floors, sticking doors, or bowing walls—especially in Victorian or Colonial homes common to the area. Scheduling an inspection in late spring helps avoid weather-related delays.
