Mill Housing, Stone Walls
Hampden grew up around the mills, and its rowhouses were built for workers — sturdy, simple, and sitting on stone foundations that have held for a century. Those stone walls are the defining feature of a Hampden egress job: thick, uneven, and slow to cut. We cut them with diamond saws and frame the opening to carry the wall above. It takes longer than a block wall, and any honest quote will reflect that.
The Hampden Basement Boom
As Hampden's rowhouses turned over to new owners, the basements followed — workshops became family rooms, storage became guest suites. If your renovation plans include anyone sleeping downstairs, the egress window belongs in the budget from day one. Cutting before the drywall goes up is cleaner and cheaper than cutting after.
Alleys and Access
Hampden's alleys are working alleys — and that helps us. Concrete and soil haul out the back without tracking through your house. We coordinate around trash day and keep the alley clear. Your neighbors will barely know we were there, except for the sawing, which we keep to reasonable hours.
