Our Services

From basements to kitchens to decks, we handle the full scope of residential remodeling across the McMurray area.

Basement Finishing & Waterproofing

Peters Township homes built on clay-heavy soil sometimes face moisture issues. We waterproof foundations, install drainage systems, frame dry walls, finish flooring, and add lighting to create functional living spaces. Families near Brookside Farms often expand basements into recreation rooms, home offices, or guest suites.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit for a basement finish in McMurray?

Yes. Peters Township requires building permits for finished basements because they affect floor area, egress, and mechanical systems. We handle all permit applications and inspections for you.

What's the timeline for a kitchen remodel?

A typical kitchen remodel takes 6–10 weeks depending on cabinet custom work, plumbing/electrical complexity, and material lead times. We'll give you a detailed schedule upfront.

Can you match my brick Colonial exterior on an addition?

Absolutely. Matching brick mortar and style is standard for us. We source salvage or new brick that blends seamlessly with your existing home's façade.

How do you handle moisture in McMurray basements?

We assess your foundation, install perimeter drainage if needed, seal cracks, apply waterproof coatings, and add sump pump or dehumidifier systems. Prevention and drainage are our foundation strategy.

Can I still live in my home during a remodel?

Yes, though full kitchen/bath remodels may require temporary kitchen setups. We manage dust barriers, schedule plumbing shutoffs strategically, and keep disruption minimal.
