You have a renovation project?

We live in a 2-bedroom cottage. We have a chimney attached to the side of the home with damaged bricks. Water usually runs down the roof along the side of the chimney and over the winter with freeze and thaw cycle, the brick along the side of the chimney has become badly damaged.

We would like to get an opinion regarding the type of work would be best. Our intention is to tear down the chimney so that we can gain some room along the side of our home in order to extend our driveway because right now, the chimney is preventing us from extending the driveway. We would like to know if it is possible to tear down the chimney without compromising the structure of the home. If this is possible, then we would need someone to tear down the chimney, repair the outside wall of the home and fix/extend the roof. I am not sure what the cost is for this would be. If it's not possible to tear down the chimney, then we would require someone to fix the brick on the chimney and install something on the roof to re-direct water elsewhere so that we don't have this happen once again.

I'm hoping to get my basement finished, or at least "pool table ready". It's approximately 700 square feet. If the budget allows, I'd also like to have a small bar built in.

Hi,

We are looking to undergo major interior renovations (and possibly some exterior): complete main floor gut and basement gut. The kitchen, bathroom, flooring would all be new, and for the basement, we want it finished.

Thank you !
