"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!

"A&A did remove materials and installed  some new walls, ceilings and some flooring. They gave an estimate for the entire job and an approximate time line for job completion.  The cost estimate covered 1/2 or less of the remodel cost and the time for completion would have been at least 2 times longer than estimated.  A&A did not provide crews for work, but one person did most of the actual labor.  They did have a Sheetrock finishing crew that did some work, but not all the Sheetrock  finishing.  After 5 months the job was 1/2 done and there was not 1 room in the house that was completed.  Every room was started (at some level of dismantling), but nothing was completed.  We lived 2 hours away and could not monitor hours worked or days worked and  the last 2 months A&A worked for us, we believe their schedule was very erratic as far as far as working to complete our job.
  The floor tile work was done well.  The construction of a safe room was well done.  There may have been problems that caused a delay in completion, but we were never told or consulted about the discrepancy in the time estimates.  We did modify some of the details of the remodel and understood that the additions would add to the cost, but not double the cost.  Another company was hired to complete the job."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Egress windows or doors are required in finished basements to meet safety and building codes. If your basement is unfinished and used as a storage space, egress windows are not required, but anything considered a habitable space must have an additional point of egress in addition to the stairs.

Yes, it is possible to turn a regular basement into a walkout basement. Doing so involves excavating the land around at least one side of your basement foundation, installing retaining walls to create a permanent below-grade area outside your home, and then cutting into the foundation to install an exterior door that leads out to the new space. This is an expensive and time-consuming project, but it can add a lot of value and utility to your home.

Since DIYing a basement remodel isn't typically advised, there are some ways that you can still save money on this project without putting yourself in danger. Some ways to save money on a basement remodel include:

  • Painting walls yourself versus including in the cost of the remodel 

  • Installing light fixtures yourself

  • Choosing prefabricated fixtures, like cabinets, over custom ones

  • Choosing a budget-friendly flooring option, like laminate or vinyl flooring, and add rugs where necessary

Adding a bathroom to your basement can increase your home value since homes with multiple bathrooms sell for more. The return on investment (ROI) for a basement bathroom is 50% to 75%. The actual return varies with your home and location. Adding a half bath to your home increases the value by 2.9% while finishing a basement increases the home value by 6.6%.

A finished basement must have a heat and electrical supply with an entrance that meets building code requirements, such as a stairwell to the home's main living space. It often must include finished walls, ceilings, and floors. If the finished basement includes a bedroom, it should have a heat source, an egress window, and a closet.

Remodeling, as opposed to finishing, means altering an already finished basement by adding a bathroom, bedroom, or living area.
