Who comes out
Two people, one van, a lot of basements.
Ines Garroway and Tom Pelletier started Joistbrume in 2019 after years of finishing basements for other people.
Most of our day is quiet work: setting monitors on a shelf, measuring a slab, finding the closet a pipe can run through without anyone noticing it. We would rather you test twice than buy a system you don’t need.
When a result comes back we write it up in plain words: what the number is, how it compares with your last test and what we would do next in your place. If the answer is “nothing for now,” we say so.
Where we go
Corliss Falls, Upper Brayton, Mill Ferry and the farms in between, within about twenty miles of the shop on Quarry Road. Further out, ask and we’ll tell you the trip cost before we book.
The van carries the monitors, a drill, pipe and a vacuum. It does not carry a sales script.
Not sure where to start?
Most people start with one short-term test. Tell us a little about the house and we’ll take it from there.
