How much basement wall bowing is acceptable?

• <div><p>Generally, a wall can bow up to 30% of its thickness, or around 2.5 inches for an 8-inch-thick structure, before it becomes an urgent situation. If your basement wall bows more than 1 inch, it's time to have a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-inspect-your-basement.htm">basement inspection</a> to determine if a repair is necessary, depending on the soil conditions and structural specifics. Walls nearing 4 inches of bowing will require significant repairs. More than 6 inches of bowing usually means the wall will need replacing. </p></div>

Is it worth it to renovate a basement?

• <div><p>Yes. Renovating your basement has a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/remodeling-projects-highest-roi.htm">return on investment (ROI)</a> of 75%, meaning your remodel investment will significantly increase the value of your home. Besides the ROI, your family can enjoy a larger, more usable space while you live there. </p></div>

Q: How long does a typical basement remodel take?

• <div><p>Project timelines vary significantly, typically from weeks to months, depending on design complexity and active permitting processes.</p></div>

Q: Do I need permits for flooded basement cleanup or repairs?

• <div><p>Permits may be required for major repairs, structural work, or electrical and plumbing restoration after a flood. Check with your local building department to determine permit requirements and associated fees for your flooded basement cleanup project. Obtaining the correct permits helps ensure work is done safely and up to code.</p></div>

Q: What adds the most value in a renovation?

• <div><p>Renovations that add functionality or more comfortable floor space generally add the most value when remodeling your home. Attic or basement finishing can add floor space without altering the home's structure, saving you renovation money while adding valuable space. Smaller improvements, such as installing smart-home components or replacing entry doors and windows, also experience high ROIs. </p></div>

considering the randomness of what they did - some things were what the house inspector recommended when I bought the place; upgraded the lighting in the basement, and rewired the entry for a future project - I'm very impressed with their thoroughness and the knowledge to adapt to the wiring of...

G&M did an excellent job. I called knowing I had some pretty odorous carpet that needed replacement. I had a few ideas in mind, but wasn't exactly sure how to go about it. They showed up, gave samples, provided multiple quotes for different areas, qualities, etc. and even offered additional...

Great job. They went the extra mile to get an extremely heavy piece of equipment out of the basement.

I was not home when he serviced my unit. My wife was. He came to the door and then went right to work. The unit is outside. He had to come in a couple of times to check on the unit in the basement. He finished in a timely manner. I would recommend A to Z for all your appliance repair needs.

It turns out there was no problem. Our filter was very clogged from recent remodeling work. We paid $90 to be told "change your filter." While it's good to know there wasn't a bigger (more expensive) problem, it was a little frustrating to be charged the full trip charge amount for no work,...
