We are a family owned and operated business with over 40 years of experience in the remodeling industry. We are fully licensed and insured in NYC, Nassau and Suffolk counties.

"I don't think contractors come any better than this one. Tom was professional throughout, meticulously explaining everything to us at every step of the way. You should hire this guy for his communication skills and customer service skills alone. Not only was he responsive to our texts and calls -- he himself was proactive and constantly in touch with us about the schedule and the work. And the quality of the work is great. You can tell when there is pride of craftsmanship. Tom does a lot of the work himself but when he needs to subcontract, the people he hires also seem to be serious craftsmen. Our final cost for the work was more than the estimate but you have to be naive to expect that when you embark on something like this that there aren't going to be a few surprises. Whenever one of those surprises cropped up (crumbling 100-year-old sewer line, for example), Tom informed us and laid out all the options for us. Definitely hire him! I know we will, again, when we need major work."

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

While concrete walls do not need to "breathe" in the traditional sense of the word, they do require waterproofing and dehumidifying methods, particularly in basements below the water table. Concrete both contains moisture from its initial installation and can absorb water when exposed. Ensuring proper basement ventilation , installing a vapor barrier, and controlling water exposure are all important tasks.

Yes, unresolved damage can decrease property integrity and market value.

Most structural engineers offer free quotes, regardless of the size of the job. For simple inspections when buying or selling a home, engineers typically charge a flat fee that may be based solely on your home’s foundation type and square footage. For larger projects, like new construction and major home renovations, an engineer will either perform an analysis of your project and site and provide you with a formal estimate, or they will do a more in-depth assessment and in-person site inspection before coming up with a per-hour or per-project cost estimate. In most cases, the estimate is free.

Generally, you can tell if a home is bolted to the foundation by checking the foundation for plates. If you see that your foundational plates connect to wood or bolts protruding from them, this means that you have a bolted foundation. However, it's always wise to bring a home inspector in to confirm if your foundation is secure.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.
