"I had my kitchen remodeled by Coastal Kitchen and Bath a few months ago, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! I can honestly say the experience was outstanding from start to finish. John, the owner, is not only extremely skilled and professional, but also one of the friendliest people you could hope to work with. He took the time to really listen to my ideas, made thoughtful suggestions, and guided me through the entire process so that I always felt comfortable and informed. The quality of the work speaks for itself—every detail is beautifully done, and the finished kitchen completely exceeded my expectations. It’s clear that John takes a lot of pride in what he does, and it shows in the craftsmanship. Beyond the excellent results, the project was completed on time and within budget, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. What also stood out to me was the value. Remodeling can be a big investment, but I feel that Coastal Kitchen and Bath delivered incredible quality at a very fair price. I now have a kitchen that not only looks amazing but functions perfectly for my daily life. I wholeheartedly recommend Coastal Kitchen and Bath to anyone considering a remodel. John and his team truly go above and beyond, and I couldn’t be happier with my new kitchen."

He does all major renovation and construction work on my properties and recently completed a significant gut remodel and addition to one of our houses . He is great and understands the entire construction process including permitting and working with the planning department to get everything signed off. Even better, his prices are fair and reasonable."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Basements are commonly converted into game rooms. The potential challenges you may run into include controlling moisture, working with low ceilings, limited natural light, and the need for additional electrical or HVAC work. Addressing these issues can add to the total cost, but it ensures a comfortable and functional space.

Any bowing in a basement wall indicates a problem that needs to be addressed by a professional. If your basement wall bows more than 1 inch, it's time for an inspection. Generally, a wall can bow up to 30% of its thickness (around 2.5 inches for an 8-inch-thick wall) before it becomes an urgent situation. Bowing of 2 to 4 inches is more straightforward to fix than bowing of more than 4 inches, which will require significant repairs. If the bowing is more than 6 inches, the wall will likely need to be replaced. The sooner you address the problem, the easier and less expensive the repair will be.

The time it takes to finish or remodel a basement can vary significantly, ranging from a few weeks to several months or even up to a year. On average, the construction phase can take four to eight weeks, but the total project time can extend to three or four months when including planning and permits. The timeline depends on several factors, including the basement's size, design complexity, the scope of the work, and your contractor's availability. A more detailed breakdown for an average-sized basement might include: framing (3-5 days), electrical and rough-in plumbing (3-5 days), drywall installation (5 days), flooring (2-3 days), and final touches like painting and trim (about a week). If preliminary work like installing a waterproofing system or addressing structural issues is needed, the timeline could extend to six to twelve months. Factors like difficult access, material transport, and ventilation needs can also add to the project's duration.

When considering finishing your basement, take into account a few pros and cons:

Pros

  • Can increase the value of your home

  • Separate space from the rest of the house 

  • Customize and personalize the basement to suit your needs and style

  • Increase the amount of living space in your home

Cons

  • May not regain enough value to cover the cost of finishing

  • Lack of natural light if it’s below ground level

  • Moisture or flooding can cause costly damage

  • Installing plumbing and electrical can be messy and costly

Home improvements that increase value offer a high return on investment (ROI) and can enhance your quality of life. Upgrades to your home’s curb appeal often add the most value, with garage door replacement having one of the best ROIs at 93%. Other high-value exterior projects include replacing your front door, upgrading siding and roofing, installing a stone veneer, adding new windows, and landscaping. For interior renovations, a fresh coat of paint provides an excellent ROI. Major projects like a kitchen remodel or upgrading appliances and HVAC systems also add significant value, as potential buyers appreciate the peace of mind that new equipment provides.
