Our basement services cover repair, restoration and installation work for Boston-area homes and properties. We assess the condition of the existing construction, explain the practical options and build a scope around the property rather than applying a one-size-fits-all repair.

Our basement services cover repair, restoration and installation work for Boston-area homes and properties. We assess the condition of the existing construction, explain the practical options and build a scope around the property rather than applying a one-size-fits-all repair.
New England weather exposes exterior masonry and building systems to rain, snow, temperature swings and freeze-thaw movement. Good work starts with preparation and with understanding why an area has deteriorated. We look at the visible damage as well as surrounding joints, drainage, transitions and adjacent construction.
Our approach is to repair or rebuild the affected area with durable materials and careful preparation. Where practical, repairs are planned to work with the existing construction and provide a clean, durable finished result.

Learn more →Our Process
We review the affected area, surrounding construction, access and visible signs of moisture, movement or deterioration.
We explain the recommended scope, preparation and materials so the proposed work is clear before the project begins.
The work is completed with attention to preparation, alignment, joints, drainage and a clean finished appearance.
Why ProTop
Boston properties range from historic masonry buildings to newer homes with modern drainage and waterproofing systems. The right approach depends on the age, material and condition of the property.
We focus on straightforward assessments, clear scopes of work and durable repair methods. If an issue involves adjoining masonry, foundation or waterproofing work, we can address those connected areas as part of the same project.
Planning Your Project
Surface damage can be the result of water, movement, failed joints, poor drainage or aging materials. Covering deterioration without addressing the contributing condition can lead to repeated repairs.
During an assessment, we look for practical clues around the affected area and discuss whether localized repair, repointing, rebuilding, waterproofing, drainage work or a broader installation is appropriate.
For restoration work, compatibility with existing masonry is especially important. Mortar hardness, joint profile, stone or brick condition and moisture movement can all affect how a repair performs.
We provide estimates across the region.
Questions & Answers
Common reasons to request an assessment include cracking, movement, weathering, moisture and deteriorated masonry. The right repair depends on what is causing the condition, not only what is visible at the surface.
Cost depends on access, size, material condition, preparation, drainage and how extensive the repair or installation needs to be. We recommend an on-site estimate for accurate pricing.
Yes. Many Greater Boston properties use older brick, stone, mortar and foundation assemblies. Existing materials and construction methods should be considered before repair work begins.
