We are well setup to do Property Management projects such as this one. This owner hand selected us for our excellent reputation in concrete. Can anyone guess where this is (be specific)?

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

Thu, 12 Jan 2012 11:19:00 -0800

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.

How not to dig a foundation - Beware of other excavation companies

Wed, 02 Nov 2011 05:49:00 -0700

Another excavator dug this basement and as you can they left very dangerous conditions for our concrete guys in the hole. In some areas the sides are 13 feet tall with even more dirt stockpiled next to the wall. So we are here today to fix everything so it is safe according to OSHA standards.

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.

Mitigating Rain – Bartley tents an under slab prep

Fri, 23 Sep 2011 12:02:00 -0700

Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE

Rain typically puts a damper on our construction work, but not when you have smart construction workers. Our employees know the value of not losing a day, so they decided to construct a temporary tent so they could still continue to work on prepping the concrete slab. Innovation in concrete is something you get when you choose Bartley.

No power at Bartley but operations continue

Tue, 30 Aug 2011 09:04:34 -0700

Irene has left us without power since Saturday but our field operations are still running smoothly. BGE is expecting to restore power to our office by Friday. Our phone system is running, however many of our employees are working remotely. Calling our cell phones would be the best way to contact us at this time instead of calling the office or sending emails.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Demolition in Bethesda

Mon, 25 Jul 2011 07:16:08 -0700

Justin tearing another house down. Notice we haul out all the trash first to keep from mixing with the concrete. Another way to save money and recycle at the same time. Demolition on Monday, Tuesday, Excavation on Wednesday, footings on Thursday. This is a prime example of turnkey operation.

Concrete is cooler!!

Compared to asphalt, concrete is around 10 degrees cooler on a hot summer day. Plus who wants a driveway that can melt and requires more maintenance??

Concrete Driveways add value to your Home and last longer

Fri, 01 Jul 2011 09:26:10 -0700

Here is a concrete driveway that we installed recently. Below is a list of facts about concrete:

•Concrete is the better long-term value because concrete performs well for 20 to 30 years — about three times longer than an asphalt one.

•Because it is produced locally, concrete decreases transportation costs and pollution. Most of the liquid asphalt used in Maryland is trucked in from other states.

•Concrete is more rigid than asphalt, making concrete roads up to 4 percent more fuel efficient for cars and up to 7 percent for large trucks.

•Concrete reflects light, making the pavement brighter while reducing the energy needed to light it by up to 30 percent. Likewise, concrete reflects heat, reducing the “heat island” effect and ambient temperatures by up to 7 to 10 degrees
