Junk Removal in Chicago: what's different here
Chicago's housing is two-flats, brick bungalows and greystones, often 90–120 years old, with full basements that take on water and masonry that suffers through freeze-thaw cycles.
What it costs here: Masonry, tuckpointing and basement waterproofing cost more here because nearly every job touches brick, and winter work needs heat and protection.
