River Edge capes: the dormer, the second bath, the basement
The River Edge cape was built with one bathroom and an attic full of potential. We dormer it, add the full bath, open the kitchen and finish the basement with a sump and backup pump so it stays dry near the river. Colonials from the same years need roofs, boilers and panels — permits pulled by us, price fixed before we start.

River Edge questions, answered
My basement in River Edge takes water. What can you do?
Sump pumps with battery backups, backwater valves on the sewer line, raised mechanicals, regrading and drainage — installed by licensed plumbers and covered by our 5-Year Watertight Guarantee. We'll tell you straight which of those you actually need.
Will the same crew be at my house every day?
Yes. One dedicated licensed crew and the same foreman from the first day to the last. We don't rent subcontractors, so nobody new shows up wondering what the plan is.
Do you take small repair jobs in River Edge?
Yes. A leaking valve, a rotted step, a door that won't latch, a water heater that quit. No job is too small, and the punch list you've been putting off is welcome.
How does the free consultation work?
We come to your River Edge home, measure, inspect and write an itemized price on the spot, with an expected timeline. Same-day and next-day appointments — call before noon and we're often there today. No obligation, no deposit.
