Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from WD Contracting. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
Not sure which you need? Start with an inspection — many reputable companies assess free, and independent assessments run up to $500.
The wall run getting the drain — a full 30×40 ft basement is about 140 ft.

WD Contracting Inc. is a Revere, Massachusetts construction and restoration company founded by Wagner M. DeFreitas in 2017. Its website describes structural repairs, building restoration, roofing, waterproofing, masonry, historic projects, and building-envelope work, and states that the company is licensed and insured. Google shows a 5/5 rating from two ratings, including a 2023 account describing a bathroom remodel after a quick response, a quote within 24 hours, and a planned start the following week. The written record is limited to one detailed review, so confirm the current license, project scope, and schedule before booking. The Massachusetts registry lists HIC license 196501 as active for WD CONTRACTING INC. The site also claims 20 years in business despite stating that the company was founded in 2017, so clarify the operating history and legal entity during the estimate.
After 15-16 months of trying to get contractors and carpenters and plumbers etc, basically ignored or lied . One company took 2 weeks before cancelling, saying my building was "too old", like many others. Most of the other contractors were also pushing me into buying stuff I don't need. I told the WD team about my situation after finding them by chance, Wagner and his plumbers came ASAP, and remodeled by bathroom neglected by the previous owner. He gave me a quote within 24 hours and said he could start the following week (usually these jobs need 3-5 weeks minimum to schedule). its an old bathroom and they still did a fantastic job. They even came back and fixed some things up at no extra cost (it's an old bathroom, it was expected) but 10/10 job. Wagner and his team at WD were very friendly and hard-working and kept me updated all the time. I highly recommend! Especially if you are having trouble finding contractor for an old New England building. Thanks again to the WD team! I will definitely be hitting them up asap about fixing up my studio apartment main room/kitchenette/ceiling fan. Very easy to work with team who charges, so far, very fair prices (sometimes quite a deal depending on what you ask for!)
