Ward Construction provides services in the greater San Francisco Bay Area including, Oakland, Berkeley, Richmond, San Francisco, Walnut Creek, Lafayette, Orinda, Moraga, Hayward, Marin and other East Bay and North Bay cities.
Here’s an example of the type of services provided:
We will remove the concrete wall that runs from the right front corner of your home towards the street. The new wall will consist of W6x9 steel posts set in concrete filled holes approximately 5 feet deep and spaced 4 feet apart. Behind the new posts we will place 2×12 lagging, set a 4 inch perforated pipe and backfill with gravel. The pipe will connect to your existing downspout pipe. We will construct simple wood stairs and a railing leading down from the new wall.
Our prices for underground work, drilling, trenching or digging are based on soil conditions visible on the surface at the time of our estimate. Even if a subsurface soil investigation has been done by a competent soil engineer, this tells what the conditions are at the test site only. A few feet away different conditions may exist. If we encounter any subsurface conditions which require additional work such as, excessive ground water, cave-ins, loose fill, hard rock or other underground obstructions that require a change of method or change of location or change of equipment for the completion of the underground work, you should anticipate an increase in the cost of the job. The contract price for the work specified is based on ideal conditions and no extra work is included. The maximum width of the trench adjacent a foundation/retaining wall is 18 inches to accommodate trench shoring. If the width of the footing requires a wider trench to achieve the desired depth or slope, additional costs will be incurred. Owner will be notified by contractor when any of the above conditions occur.
All rock, hard ground, or buried concrete that requires an electric or pneumatic chipping hammer or jackhammer for excavation will be billed at $ per hour in addition to the contract price.
There may be some damage to landscaping and tree roots. Landscaping replacement is not included.
Progress bills are due and payable upon receipt.
