Basement renovation with underpinning
Basement renovations are not easy. Basement renovations in an older home is even harder.
If you still want to go through with it, I would recommend Sonoma Contracting.
Mike is very reliable,professional and honest. These traits are essential to look for in a contractor.
My renovation started in January and was completed in May.
There were many different issues that I wasn’t expecting (need for engineering drawings, need for in floor heating drawings, need for a heating permit, staircase issues,unanticipated collateral damage on the main floor due to the supporting beam(wall cracks/floor unevenness/door not closing properly), heating issues on the main floor with the addition of the infloor heating).
Through all this Mike and Aldo were there to advise and educate me and to smooth things out , so in the end I was pleased with the end result and I have a beautiful, functional basement . My father who is very critical didn’t have a bad thing to say!
The only negative thing I can say is that I wish that I was given a heads up about potential issues but Mike says that some of these were unforeseen and that some were due to inconsistencies in the permit/inspection process.
