We pride ourselves in the highest quality work, backed by warranty. We are a non-sponsored company and do not install "systems." Our methods and materials have been proven over time.
"We have an historical brick home built approximately in the early 1800’s. On the south side of our home there is a chimney which services a dinning room fireplace as well as a large fireplace in the basement. This lower level has a walk out in the room where the large fireplace is located. Back in the day, this was the kitchen and the fireplace was where meals were cooked then sent up to the dining area on a dumb waiter with ropes and pulley’s. I contacted Basement Remedies because this fireplace was on the verge of collapse. If it were to collapse, there was a good chance it would bring down the whole southern wall of our home with it. The old bricks were missing in areas due to years of moisture, age, failing mortar and the softness of the bricks natural deterioration. Todd responded to my call and came to see the situation. He gave me his assessment of the severity of the situation and after much thought came up with a solution involving concrete blocks, rebar and cement. Then he went on to inquire if I would like to save the fireplace if possible. I personally didn’t believe it could be saved. He asked if his mason could check it out and I gave my approval. His mason came out and said he believed he could save it but it would be tedious and time consuming. We decided to try and save it. You will not find a more professional, talented, knowledgeable and most of all caring group of guys anywhere in their industry. Tyler, Todd, Jordon and Eli all did amazing work saved and restored the old fireplace, installed new drainage inside and out and replaced a dirt floor with new acid etched concrete done by G. DiFazio. Long story short we had a very dank, dirty and very dangerous situation that has been converted to an amazingly solid, safe and restored part of our home. Call these guys! They know what they’re doing, there veterans and they’re very knowledgeable, even though one of them was a Marine!"
