".The contractor assessed the source of the water leaking into our basement.  He was adamant that he could not guarantee that his simple repair would work, but he wanted to try it before embarking on the expensive task of digging down and resealing the basement.  Since the leak had just appeared recently (and after some gardening work in that area), we agreed to risk the $1000 to try to caulk up the holes and regraded the soil near the leak. 
They came on time, finished on time, worked neatly and, most importantly, seemed to be effective in the results of the repair.
I definitely would use them again even though, I felt, that the little time that it took them to repair did not seem to be worth $1000.  On the other hand, I do not really know what a fair price is."

"First, we had been pretty frustrated over the past few months trying to get this work done: people wouldn't call back or wouldn't show up or wouldn't follow through. So I finally just went on google to see what I could find in Tuscaloosa. That's how I found Halo Construction on Craig's List. I went to their website and sent an email asking if they did small jobs. Within hours I heard back from Kristy who was helpful and pleasant and gave me James' number with instructions to call him and ask for a free estimate. I did, and we set up a time for him to call to come by. I have to say this to be transparent, but this fell through. When I sent an email that evening saying I hadn't heard anything, James called the next morning, apologized profusely (it was real) and offered to come by immediately to do the estimate. He was here within 30 minutes. He not only gave me a good price but did the work the same day. He left twice: once to pick up a ladder, once to run to Lowe's for parts. Wasn't gone long either time and resumed work when he returned. Had one person with him at first; then picked more up when he was out. They weren't needed for this job, but all pitched in: efficient, professional--and I noticed how professionally they interacted with one another. Not only was the work great, but they were very considerate, moving rugs, picking up pieces of insulation, offering to take the ceiling fan boxes to the curb, offering to sweep up when they were done. This was a pretty small job for Halo; they usually do remodeling projects. James said his expertise is in flooring installations. (BTW, he also said he doesn't do electrical/wiring work but could recommend someone.) Bottom line: James and company couldn't have done more to leave a good impression. We're considering some bigger jobs for our house and won't hesitate to call on Halo again. (On another note, it's refreshing to find a Tuscaloosa business that's put itself "out here" to develop a reputation among its current and potential customers.)"

"Amanda was really very good!  At first I was very skeptical, thinking why did I pay money to just speak with someone on the phone about my kitchen remodel project... but after just a few minutes of her addressing some of the issues/questions I emailed to her earlier, I knew it was worth it.  It was very clear that she knew her business and she gave me several ideas that I had not even thought about.  I told her that I would definitely recommend her to friends and I will very likely use her again myself for my next home project!

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Basements with persistent moisture problems or flooding shouldn’t be finished until the moisture issues have been fixed. In addition, if your foundation is cracked, you have unmitigated radon levels, or you have asbestos or lead pipes, remediate the underlying problem before finishing your basement. Turning a basement into living space before fixing these issues can lead to serious health risks or structural damage. 

When choosing materials for finishing basement walls, consider factors such as moisture resistance, durability, and fire resistance. Opt for materials specifically designed for basement environments, like moisture-resistant drywall or cement board. Insulation with vapor barriers can help regulate temperature and prevent condensation. Consider using mold-resistant paints or coatings. 

Research and consult with experts to select materials that are suitable for your specific basement conditions and intended use. Prioritize quality and compatibility to achieve long-lasting and aesthetically pleasing results.

If you have the woodworking experience to build a bar from scratch and you have the time, DIYing the work is a no-brainer and can save a few thousand dollars. However, if you’re looking to include a sink, additional lighting fixtures, or high-end bar tops and cabinets, it’s usually a better idea to call in a pro. It will cost more, but the finished product will likely be worth it.

Permits may be required for major repairs, structural work, or electrical and plumbing restoration after a flood. Check with your local building department to determine permit requirements and associated fees for your flooded basement cleanup project. Obtaining the correct permits helps ensure work is done safely and up to code.

The cost of finishing a basement is about $18,400 on average. As you can see, the framing portion of this project costs less, because you’re essentially just dealing with laying the foundation for a finished basement. The finishing portion of the project involves a lot more intricate work and design, as well as high-end materials.
