He and his sons made clean cuts in the damaged walls, reinforced a slew of sawed-off two-by-fours, installed new sheetrock and put on a kind of waterproof wainscoting over that, finishing all seams nicely. He put in fresh carpet padding under undamaged carpet and reinstalled it so that it looked as if it had just been put in, adding wooden moldings at the bottom edges. He completely redid one wall and repaired and painted walls in a basement laundry room and bathroom too, and then he smoothed and painted the concrete in the uncarpeted areas and in a big utility room as well. He finished and tacked down all edges of the carpet, filled and painted holes in previously damaged woodwork, reinstalled doors and laundry sink, and was ready and willing to repair an upstairs window, heft heavy extra doors into a space over our garage, paint a long board where an awning had gone, and haul off all scrap and trash. After each work session, he left the area neat and clean and safe. He kept his appointments and finished the job quickly. Bernard Krajir and his sons make a very pleasant little team of excellent workers, and he did not overcharge -- if anything, he undercharged . . . He can repair rooves (fixed our gutters earlier) and won't turn down any odd job. He has had 30 years' experience and has taught his sons well. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

They repaired a water leak, and then had to come back twice to fix the leak. They were willing to come back to repair the issue, and so far there is no water leak. They did the inside and outside.

I had several quotes from local basement water proofing companies for the water leak from the basement wall. As the job was for our first home that we've recently settled and this was the first time we hired the professional for the water proofing so I was careful to choose the right...

The leaking 1/2" copper water supply line was located in my home's basement, between the first floor joists and very accessible. The actual leak was two pin holes in a 1/2" copper elbow. I called Robinson Plumbing approximately 1:00pm. The scheduler was courteous and assured me a plumber was...

"Very happy we had Contek repair and remodel our living room. Started with a prompt visit by Corey and a detailed quote shortly after, and we then got on their schedule about 6 weeks later. Job consisted of removing and repairing a large area of the ceiling that was water damaged, removing a 9' picture window and also repairing water damage around that, refinishing that with two smaller double-hung windows, refinishing it all inside and outside, and lastly converting a standard small doored closet into an open mudroom closet. Dan managed the job and was nothing but a complete pleasure to work with. Shawn and crew did the vast majority of the work and were also a pleasure to work with. We did have a few finishing items we weren't initially satisfied with, but I'm only saying this because they made it very clear that they wanted us to be COMPLETELY satisfied, and to tell us of any concerns. Dan really went above and beyond here, and he and the crew addressed each of our concerns. It really was a pleasure having the Contek team work on our home, and now we have a living room we can't wait to show off."

FAQs for basement leak repair projects in Allentown, PA
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.
