"It went great!
They found the problem right away.  Around the Chimney the caulking had cracked, and they repaired that.  As far as the back of the house with the two bedrooms, they found that the people who installed the roofing as well as the siding had attached their ladders/supports to the roof with nails, and never bothered to re-seal these holes up!!!  Not good since it caused some damage to the ceiling.
Great job!  I would highly recommend again!

"Amazing! Ramy and his team did an amazing job and really take a lot of pride in their work! He removed the old door, fixed the rotted parts of the floor, and installed a new slider. My wife and I can’t believe how good it looks and the improvement it made. We will hire Ramy and Chakur Construction for our new hardwood floor install shortly. Look no further when you need any remodeling in your home. I research everything before I make a decision and am so happy I chose Chakur!"

"Went well.  The torrential rains the following week revealed that the upper end of driveway near garage needed to put built up a bit more to keep the rain from puddling.   The guys came back a week later, after the rain stopped and build up the driveway.   They burnt the tar to blend it into the existing driveway.  
The driveway is a difficult one to do.   There is absolutely no grade to work with - it all had to be built up.  
TMC was the only company who said they could do the driveway with out a drainage system.   All the other contractors would not consider it.    We did not want the drainage system because it does not work.  We are all ledge and granite underneath.
Looks beautiful!!!   Will definitely have them back to do other work."

"This project was to paint trim and accessories after the house had been sided. It was a little complicated with a few different colors and different places to paint. There were a couple of times that they got confused, but they always were more than willing to correct any errors they made to my complete satisfaction. I will hire them again."

They were responsible for all the interior and exterior painting, re-paneling, bathroom renovations, and plumbing work. Their performance was outstanding, and I continue to rely on them for ongoing projects. occasional projects that crops up. I can highly recommend Claudiney and his team."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Lawrence, MA

Finishing a basement turns unused square footage into livable space and returns up to 70% of what you spend when you sell your home. Beyond that resale boost, you gain a playroom, home office, or guest suite you can start enjoying right away. That mix of daily comfort and solid return on investment (ROI) makes basement finishing one of the smartest upgrades you can tackle.

In some parts of the country—especially lots on swamps, high water tables, or other wetlands—local codes prohibit basements. Saturated soil puts constant pressure on foundation walls and lets water seep in faster than any sump pump can handle. 

If your property sits on waterlogged ground, building on a slab or crawl space is often safer, more affordable, and code-compliant.

Most basements wrap up in four to eight weeks. Framing takes three to five days, with electrical and plumbing rough-ins following over the next week. Add five days for drywall, two to three for flooring, and another week for paint, trim, and punch-list items. 

Delays can happen if materials run late or your contractor’s calendar is packed, so build in a little cushion when you plan.

Whether a finished basement counts toward your home’s official square footage depends on local rules. Many areas only include below-grade space if it has code-approved egress, fully finished walls, ceilings, and floors, plus consistent heating. 

Check with your local assessor or building department before you start; meeting those standards can affect taxes, appraisals, and resale value.

Building codes require a checklist: dedicated heat and electrical service, a code-approved stairway, and at least one egress window or exterior door. Walls, ceilings, and floors must be fully finished and meet insulation, ventilation, and fire-separation standards. If you add a bedroom, you’ll also need a closet, proper clearances, and safe exits. If you change the layout later, be ready to update the space so every new room still meets today’s code.
