Along with that I was going to have the fence that was blown down in the storm replaced and some siding patched up (from having put some windows put in). The guy he contracted to fix the siding and put up a gutter by the entry did a horrible job. He put in siding pieces that were less than 6and quot; in some places. When my X-husband confronted Sherco; the guy lost his temper with him and I could hear him yelling and swearing over the phone. It never did get corrected. The section of gutter the guy put up was done well, but ended up being installed too high for a metal roof, so the snow coming off the metal roof bent it up. I really like the metal roof I had put on since with the design of the house we have had constant issues with ice damns and water coming in, but there were consequences. As a general contracter he should have been aware of the problems associated with metal roofs. I, as the home owner, am not the expert and if you hire this company; you better be. The snow coming off the roof bent up all my gutters. Turns out this is a common problem and it should have been addressed in the beginning. The snow coming down also hit one of the plumbing exhaust pipes, so in the spring I had water coming in my kitchen cupboards. I first called Sherco about the problems with the gutters and the leak before Christmas and I didn't get anyone out until April, and all that happened was the roof contractor resealed the pipe and did nothing to prevent it from happening again. The owner refused to do anything about my gutters. With them being all bent this summer I had water in my basement again. He didn't care one little bit. The up charge Sherco charged on the job was 20% (profit margin) and for that I got nothing. Still don't have the gutters repaired since the only real option is to go with gutter guard and I don't have $5000. I had a friend take down the really damaged gutters and I layed plastic along side the house to try and reduce the water coming in the basement.

The order included a $99 service charge (even though the problem had already been diagnosed and detailed by the gas company), parts and estimated labor for an additional $375. Fortunately, I know people in the business and called them before signing anything. The parts cost next to nothing (a flex connector and new flare nut) and the job takes 10 minutes or less. Highly irritated that I was still responsible for the $99 service call fee, when it was unnecessary for him to come at all to review what he already knew. Also irritated that I have to go another day without my gas range until a friend can fix it instead. I declined the rest of their inflated parts/labor fees.

He and his employee were concerned about keeping the rest of the basement as clean as possible. They used plastic runners on all the carpeted paths to the areas to be repaired. All sawing was done outside. The sheet rocker and taper closed off work areas that caused dust to accumulate....

"I hired this company to repair hail damage on my home in 2023. The job was to replace the roofs on my house and garage as well as siding and gutters on my house. Long story short they came out and did the roofs in a timely manner, the siding and gutters not so much. Communication was lacking and they tried to charge me way more than what my insurance scope was. I had to get a lawyer involved. He sued me and we went to court. I won my case in February 2025 and I am still waiting to be paid the money I am owed. I do not recommend this company, buyer beware."

FAQs for basement leak repair projects in Richmond, MN
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.
