Dear Customer, Thank you for considering my services. I've been working in the Cambridge, Arlington, Medford, Belmont, Watertown and Lexington areas for over 30 years. I have performed nearly every type of home renovation and can provide many local references. I can help you renovate your: kitchen, bathroom, basement, attic, doors, built-in cabinetry, front porch and all other home projects. I work with top notch plumbers, plasterers, floor refinishers, painters, electrician, tilers and others. I will make every effort to ensure that your project runs smoothly and with minimal disturbance to your home. You will always be able to reach me during a project and I will bring only the most trustworthy craftsmen to your home. My goal is to make your renovation experience a good one from start to finish with detailed contracts and great communication all along the way. I look forward to talking with you about your project. Best, Lew Weitzman

"We hired Lewis Weitzman to â rehabâ our kitchen. Lewis was amazing. We didnâ t need to hire an architect. Lewis, after extensive talks with us, came up with several redesigns that incorporated our tastes and preferences, while also taking into account the limitations of the space. Lewis was not only receptive, he was involved and creatively problem-solved every step of the way. Daily, he was there, overseeing the work of demolition teams, plumbers, cabinet makers, flooring experts, electricians, carpenters, and painters. When he discovered that one of our support beams had been taken down almost 30 years before, he quickly found a solution and was able to put up a massive beam that supported out entire upper floor. Throughout the work, we never had to worry when â discoveriesâ (never good ones, regarding electricity, plumbing, you name it) were made â we always knew Lewis would find solutions. Throughout the process, he continually helped us imagine new possibilities, whether it was uncovering a hidden brick wall or creating custom-made shelves in â dead spaces.â We had complete confidence in him â his work ethic, his skill, and his ability to coordinate multiple teams seamlessly. To us the result is amazing â we love our new kitchen and canâ t believe itâ s ours."

Major home repairs (general contractor) FAQs

The timeline for raising a sunken living room varies depending on your specific project. Factors affecting the schedule include the size of the area, the complexity of the work, and whether you're installing new flooring throughout adjacent rooms. Your contractor will need to remove existing flooring, build up the sunken area, allow time for materials to set properly, and then install finished flooring. Be sure to discuss the expected timeline with your contractor during the planning phase.

Raising a sunken living room is a significant structural modification that should be done with proper engineering considerations. When performed correctly by qualified professionals, the project shouldn't negatively impact your home's structural integrity. However, improper installation could lead to issues like uneven floors or inadequate support. This is why hiring an experienced and licensed home remodeling contractor who understands the structural requirements and building codes for such modifications is recommended.

Yes, contractors can raise sunken living rooms with concrete slab foundations. The process involves pouring new concrete to fill the depression or building a wood-framed floor system over the existing slab. For a 400-square-foot room with a six-inch depression, filling with concrete would cost approximately $2,400 before adding finished flooring. The approach your contractor recommends will depend on your specific situation, including the height differential and your preferred finished floor type.

When raising a sunken living room, you'll need to consider how the new flooring will transition to adjacent areas. Your options include extending the new flooring throughout connected spaces for a seamless look, using transition strips between different flooring types, or selecting complementary materials that create an intentional design feature. Discuss these options with your flooring professional to determine the best approach for your home's specific layout and your aesthetic preferences.
