Massive rains hit VT; leaky basements have got to go.

We extended our deepest condolences to all the Vermont communities and families who’ve been impacted by this massive July 2023 rainstorm. Here in Hardwick, VT all major roads in and out of town are washed away or closed. Everyone is affected by the intense rain or floods. Thank you road crews, EMTs, fire departments, police, volunteers, and everyone helping with the critical cleanup and rebuilding work already underway. #VTStrong Please contact us if your foundation is leaking or flooding from

2023 Project Line Up

Skateparks & Foundations coming up! Parker Construction has an almost full line-up for 2023. We are looking forward to working with the Town of Ludlow Recreation Department to upgrade their Dorsey Park Skatepark into a world-class concrete skate park. Phase 1, happening this summer, will create excellent skate terrain for all levels. With potential for future expansion, Parker Construction is building with long-term fun in mind! Filling in around the skatepark construction work, we are repairing several old stone foundations

Habitat for Humanity foundation fix

Central Vermont Habitat for Humanity is restoring this circa 1915 home in Barre City- and it needed a reinforced foundation. Parker Construction sprayed shotcrete where the rubble foundation was compromised. Reinforced with rebar and steel mesh, the new monolithic foundation will keep the house on solid footing. Plastic temporarily covers the siding to protect the house from overspray. Shotcrete is stronger than poured concrete, and can be applied directly to the area that needs it most. After all the renovations

Don’t let this happen to your home…

You think, “It won’t happen to us…”  But foundation failure can mean the total loss of you home.  Take this house outside Morrisville on Route 15 W as an example.  Cinder block foundations are not immune to frost heaves and collapse.  Parker Construction could have repaired the foundation with monolithic reinforced shotcrete, affordably and efficiently.  Instead, this home was demolished after caving in.  Contact us today for the affordable solution your house deserves.  

Basement or Crawlspace? We can fix it!

Repairing a foundation from the inside is often the most cost-effective solution for most foundation repairs. Inside repairs create a monolithic foundation within the original foundation space, which 100% improves the structural bearing of the building. The best course of option is to repair a foundation from inside and outside, but we can customize solutions based on each structure’s unique parameters. This basement started out as an almost inaccessible crawlspace of about 16″ of space. Parker Construction hand dug down

Start to Finish Foundation Repair

When repairing an old stone foundation from the outside, we go to great lengths to make it strong and watertight, so you can rest assured your home is on solid footing, with proper drainage.  Exterior foundation repair can be combined in interior foundation repair for complete confidence in the strength and watertightness of your building.   “Michael was super easy to work with – he communicates clearly and does excellent work.  I hired Parker Construction to repair a crumbling stone foundation –

SkateParker completes Brattleboro “Perseverance” Skatepark

Perseverance Skatepark

Years in the making, the groundbreaking ceremony on June 15, 2020 was one to celebrate. Even the global coronavirus pandemic couldn’t stop it! Parker Construction was hired by the Town of Brattleboro to build a world class concrete Skatepark at Living Memorial Park. The Ribbon Cutting and Grand Opening on October 3, 2020 was a community celebration of all the hard work (and 15 years of persevering) that went into making this dream a reality. We were honored to build

Get in the 2020 season line up

Concrete season is short in Vermont.  And that gives us plenty of time for planning our summer and fall jobs.  If the damp, crumbling basement that holds up your entire house is weighing on your mind, contact Parker Construction today for an estimate.  We offer free estimates in the off-season, and explain all your options in detail, but once the roads dry and weather warms, we are hard pressed to visit all jobs.  Parker Construction is now accepting deposits for

2017 season a shotcrete success!

In 2017, Parker Construction completed 2 major foundation repairs in Central Vermont, and a 16,000 square foot custom concrete skatepark in West Lebanon, New Hampshire.  To accomplish this level of work, we upgraded from spraying dry-mix concrete or “gunite”, to using a new shotcrete pump to apply wet-mix concrete.  Skilled at pneumatic concrete application to achieve superior strength and durability, Parker Construction, Inc is now equipped to apply a stronger concrete in less time, with less waste.  Contact us today

Historic 1815 foundation restored in Downtown Stowe

Parker Construction repaired the foundation on an 1815 building on Main Street in Downtown Stowe.  The building is being restored and renovated for commercial space, and had a crumbling stone foundation.  Parker Construction jacked up the entire building, removed rotten sills, reinforced the stone foundation, installed new support posts and beams, and poured a new concrete slab to finish the basement.  Giving new life and support to old buildings, all in a month’s work!
