As a top-ranked East Bay Realtor helping people buy and sell homes for more than 20 years, I have Tom Anderberg of Anderberg Construction Consulting at the top of my referral list (http://www.hollyrosehomes.com/resources.html) for all matters related to water intrusion in residential homes. I have learned from experience – crawling under countless houses, with countless inspectors — that most structural issues with our wonderful old homes, especially foundation issues, may be traced in some way to water. Water finds its way in where it shouldn’t, or isn’t able to get out where it should, or drains to the wrong location, or appears in unexpected places – and our old wood framing soaks it up, while our expansive clay soils expand and contract like a sponge. In my opinion, the single best thing you can do to preserve the life of your home is to address your water issues. I have referred Tom Anderberg to clients throughout the East Bay, including Oakland, Berkeley, Kensington, El Cerrito and Albany, and have received uniformly glowing feedback. Interested parties are welcome to contact me directly for a personal recommendation.

My clients were scientists, and very much appreciated Tom’s articulate, thorough and expert approach to his analysis of their future home. Tom’s guidance, offered with a sense of humor, was an important aspect of my client’s success. I am pleased to recommend him!”
