Q: Who do I hire for a basement remodel?

• <div><p>For most basement remodels, you&rsquo;ll want to hire a general contractor. This is for a number of reasons, but the main two are that general contractors have dedicated teams they are comfortable with, and hiring one means you only have to deal with one pro. You may also get a better project quote since they can lump all their work and subcontracting into a single quote. </p></div>

Q: What is the most challenging part of finishing a basement?

• <div><p>Physically, the most challenging part of finishing a basement is installing egress windows or doors when the space is below ground level. Mentally, the hardest part may be envisioning the project and planning around load-bearing and mechanical obstacles.</p></div>

"We started out with a simple request to replace some siding and ended up using Barry and his team for everything, and let me tell you, they have been AWESOME throughout this entire process! He and his team have repeatedly gone out of their way, every step of the way, to make sure that we're not only getting what we asked for, but also to ensure that the work was being done correctly, quickly, and at a reasonable price. They didn't just patch things up outside, they've completely restored this home. It's even better now than it was originally! It's simply amazing to see the absolute transformation this house has gone through in such a short amount of time and we could not be more satisfied with the job they've done! I would highly recommend Barry and his team for any project you have - literally, ANY project - these guys can do it all! Just give him a call and get that free estimate, you won't be disappointed. Also, everyone on the team was great, but I need to give a special shoutout to Michael - he was out there through the entire project and had some amazing recommendations that really took the remodeling phase to the next level! Just another reason you can't go wrong choosing Homeworx."
