Other companies contacted didn't want to get involved (some from this site). Not only did they do the repairs necessary, they provided detailed documentation of what was wrong to start with, as well as a thorough examination of the entire roof. We have since had a few rainfalls and my pantry has remained dry. Without hesitation, I would use Besroi Construction for any future needs. My only regret is that I didn't find them sooner.

Rick was prompt, courteous and explained in detail what he was seeing as we went through the house. For example, he pointed out that the fan from the bathrooms went into the attic but not through the roof and that may lead to a mold issue. He showed me how a simple $15 water dish and the drain pipe attached under the water heater had the potential to save me a lot of money if the water heater were to ever leak. He showed me that changing the dryer exhaust from a plastic one to a metal one could prevent problems down the road. I learned that new air vents had been put in the roof when it was replaced and the ability to see sunlight meant that air is circulating which will prevent moisture and mold issues. Within 18 hours I received a detailed report with many pictures detailing all aspects of the property I wished to purchase. He even knocked off $25 because he finished earlier than he expected as the property is small. I highly recommend this company. Also, it was suggested to have a radon test because of high levels in a couple nearby homes that had high levels and a map that showed possible problems. Despite not having a basement, I decided to trust Rick. I am glad I did. People were telling me there is almost no likelihood of radon without a basement. Was this a money grab? NO!

So the total to replace the valve is $160l.56. Asked Bob to check the other outdoor garden hose valve to make sure that it had not cracked, it was fine. However, he did notice that our sprinkler system valve was leaking significantly. Grateful for the "catch" by Bob, I now have the sprinkler system coming out tomorrow to repair that leak. Very appreciative of Roto-Rooter's prompt and professional service. They answered their phone right away, did not have to leave a message and wait for a call back. I was contacted by the dispatcher right away to tell me they were waiting for an available plumber. Called back quickly to tell me he was on his way and about how long it would be before the plumber would arrive. Bob was pleasant and professional. Bob also went above and beyond with checking the other outdoor plumbing. Will definitely be using them for any future plumbing needs I may have. Will also be telling all of my friends and family about my great experience with your company. Thanks again.

FAQs for basement leak repair projects in Amherst, NY
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.
