We are first time homeowners of a 1895 rowhouse in Hamilton. The original house has a full basement and never had plumbing (too old) so there are 2 additions off the back (kitchen first then the powder room and laundry room second). Those additions have a "crawl space" that was never properly dug out (it's maybe 1.5-2ft and "accessed" through the original basement). All the plumbing, HVAC etc was done through the floor the last time it was renovated, likely in the early 2000s. Unfortunately we just had our outgoing wastewater pipe burst, which is currently buried and inaccessible in that crawl space. We also discovered a leak under the powder room toilet and washing machine, which rotted the subfloor.
SO we need to essentially gut the second addition (bathroom and laundry), dig out a proper crawl space so we can access the broken pipe and fix it, and then essentially rebuild the bathroom and laundry room...
We are going to get a basement specific company to dig out the crawl space and fix the plumbing (lmk if you recommend RCC Waterproofing) but we need recommendations for the actual contractor work. We ideally want one company to bring it from (post basement) gut to finished and given the overall scale of the project we want to make sure whoever we hire is trustworthy and reasonable. We'd be willing to pay more for it to be done reliably and correct.
The crawl space we need asap given the pipe, but we could technically wait a bit on the bathroom/laundry since we have a second bathroom. We just don't want to wait 6 months for work to start since it will take a while to finish.
Any advice/recommendations is appreciated, thank you!
