Townhouses on River Road

Posted by Andrewbartley on

On this Townhome project in Bethesda on River Road, we provided the Excavation, Concrete Footings, Concrete Walls, Waterproofing, Concrete Slabs and will finish up with the exterior concrete sidewalks and flatwork.

The homes are right at River Road and 495 if you’d like to stop by and see the work!

Testimonial from Village of Martin’s Additions

Posted by Andrewbartley on
Dear Doug,
I want to extend my congratulation to you on the perfectly executed demolition of 7318 Delfield Street today. Wow! Wexford homes knows how to do this right!
Not one complaint from the neighbors- in fact the demolition was an event for intrigued neighbors to gather ‘round the activities , and the perfect execution just  made it all the more interesting for the watchful crowd.
One interested observer likened the activities of the demolition equipment to a ballet (if you can imagine guiding that huge piece of equipment through ballet exercises! );  that suggests how impressed the onlookers were as they watched  the demolition of the house. There were  no noise complaints, no dust complaints, no damage complaints. That amounts to nothing but compliments in my book and kudos for Wexford Homes!
As if that wasn’t enough, I noticed as I checked-in on the site about mid-morning, that “someone” was sweeping up dirt debris in Delfield Street. As I walked past the hardworking man,  I thanked him for his clean-up effort. I was so impressed to hear that he was an employee of Bartley Construction, the demolition company, and that this is standard protocol—cleaning the street up behind the delivery of their equipment. Another wow.  I will encourage all future contractors in Martin’s Additions to adhere to the same protocol, or perhaps even better , to just use Bartley.
What a pleasure it is to have Wexford Homes, and all its subcontractors, working in Martin’s Additions and of course with you, Doug Stein, at the helm. Thanks. You certainly make my job easier.
Please don’t hesitate for a moment to contact me if I can be of any assistance that might add to the successful completion of your project.
Best-
Jean Sperling

Windows & Bedrooms for you Basement, we can get you code compliant

Posted by Andrewbartley on

A new window in your basement can transform unused space into a bedroom or your new favorite living space. To add a bedroom in the basement you need an emergency-egress window. At least one window in each bedroom must be of sufficient size to permit the occupants to escape a fire and also to allow a fully outfitted firefighter to enter. These picture show our work sucessfully installing an egress window and window well. We can do the same for your new or existing home.

This long wall blew out during the heavy storms that we have been having. Bartley will excavate along wall, remove blown wall and replace with a new wall, waterproof, and install new drain tile all in just a few days. As you can see the wall is being supported before this will occur.
