"This company is owned and run by "old school" professional people who do what they say they will do. Everyone from the office staff to the crew that did the work to the owner Greg McBride were wonderful to work with. I wish I had know about them 4 years ago and I would have used them for everything in and around my home. I trust them and will use them in the future."

"Al was very kind and straightforward. He did initially tried to charge me a little more than the average for the area but after I explained that I had done research for the labor costs and already have materials he got the cost significantly also mention that you found him on Angie's List. I am very pleased with how the floor looks they did a very quick job some very weird layouts because my house is strange though I love its eccentricity. Though it takes a long time to book him because he is usually busy he works very fast, but not sloppily, and the work was completed in approximately 4 days with a small crew of three one of whom was his son. we are almost done with most of our work but I'm a call him back for some minor repairs thing that needs to be completed the only complaint I have is that at least one of the workers is a smoker and I found a few cigarette butts in my yard or in the bushes next to where they were sawing which was not very pleasant. That is a minor complaint though because as contractors go they show up on time and they get the work done and they get the work done well; which, I don't know if you use very many contractors, is unusual and a good thing. Overall I would use them again in a heartbeat and I would suggest them to other people.

"The company has been top of the line. They were very professional. They did an amazing job. What I wanted was did much greater than I could have ever imagine. With total remodeling of my entire home, I don’t think I could have bought a newer home with this much detail work and beauty. I would recommend NYMA to everyone, and of course if I need anything in the future, I will use them again."

"Isaiah was very professional. He gave me an estimate that was amazing for the work he was doing for me. Him and his crew did a great job. They were very respectful of my home and my belongings. The remodel went very well and was completed in a timely manner. I would hire this company again and refer him to my friends!!!"

"We have two decks, one on the front of the house, and a large deck on the rear.  We've taken pretty good care of the decks over the years and have stained and sealed them every 3-4 years.  It was time to do it again! I called three of the top rated companies from Angie's List and set up appointments for them to look and the job and give us a quote. All three showed up as scheduled, and provided emailed quotes within a couple of days, as agreed.  I was happy with all three of them.  They all appeared to be sincere and honest, and I'm sure that any of them would have done a good job.  I was most impressed with Eric Cooley. He asked questions, gave me options, and explained his recommendations. My impressions were that I wanted Eric to do the job if his quote was in line with the others.  When all the quotes were in, his was the most reasonable, and, by far, the most complete and detailed as to what he was going to do.  I called him and gave him the go ahead to do the work.  He sent Michael out to do the job which began with a very thorough cleaning job on both decks, a great deal of which was done on his hands and knees.  The decks were not really that dirty,but when he was done, they were spotless!  Michael came back after the decks had completely dried and began hand painting the decks. To say that he did a great job would be an understatement. I watched him smoothing out brush strokes and giving our decks the attention that I would expect from an interior job!  Michael went way above and beyond what I expected, and I had high expectations.  The decks look fantastic and I'm extremely pleased with the job that Cooley Painting and Michael did for us.  I can't wait for the next project so that I can use their services again!

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

If you’re not sure which method of raising the ceiling is best for you, here are a couple of considerations to help you make that decision. A professional ceiling company will be able to help you determine the best option for your home.

  • How long you are planning to live there: although raising the basement ceiling will increase the value of your home, if you’re planning to sell the house, then go for raising the house.

  • The condition of the foundation: to lower the floors, your foundation has to be intact whereas raising the house will allow you to restore the damaged foundation.

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.

Some older homes have toilets in the basement to combat sewage backups. This type of toilet, also known as a Pittsburgh potty, acted as a safety valve over the incoming sewer line. If a line backed up, it would back up into the toilet because it was the lowest fixture in the home, keeping it out of sight and away from the finished areas of the house.

Basement toilets were also used by workers with messy jobs, like those who worked in coal mines or steel mills. This way, they could clean up and avoid tracking dirt through their home.

Save money on your basement finishing project by making cost-effective decisions such as minimizing structural changes and avoiding costly construction revisions. DIY simpler tasks such as painting or basic cleanup to reduce labor costs. You can also opt for energy-efficient fixtures and materials that may qualify for rebates or tax incentives.
