"We hired McCormick Home Builders to remodel our living room, and we are beyond pleased with the result. The team was professional, worked efficiently, and Aris design ideas made a huge difference. The room feels so much brighter and more spacious. This was the best decision we made for our home, and we were already planning our next remodel with them."

"I hired Orbit Builders to renovate and design my house in the hills. It was rented out for years and needed a remodel before my husband and I decided to move back in. We changed our flooring, changed the kitchen, bathrooms, sliding doors, windows, landscaping and more. We did a full remodel. The communication was excellent, expectations were set from the beginning and everything was done in a timely manner. Very professional guys and you can tell that this business is their baby."

"I hired Mikey to remodel my master bathroom and was completely satisfied with not only the results but the entire process. His bid was very fair and the craftsmanship was exceptional! The decision to go with him was one of the best decisions I made. I'm proud of the work and the experience I had. In fact, I had him remodel my other two bathrooms. If you are considering a contractor I would highly recommend you at least meet with Mikey from Progressive Builders. I got peace of mind and the comfort that hiring a contractor does not have to be a nightmare like most are."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

A finished basement does not always count as square footage, as this varies by state regulations. In areas that allow below-grade spaces to be included in a home's official square footage, the basement must typically meet certain conditions. These conditions often include having a functional egress and being a livable space with flooring, finished walls, and temperature control. To be certain, contact your local assessor to confirm your area's specific policies regarding basement square footage.

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.

You can paint your ceiling or install a drywall ceiling if the ceiling is unfinished, as they take up less headroom than drop ceilings. 

If there are pipes in the way of ceiling installation, you can do one of two things: reroute the pipes or adjust the installation to fit, which will cost extra.

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.

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.
