"We hired Wright Brothers to do our basement remodel that included a full bar, guest bedroom, bathroom, and a lot of custom millwork (i.e built in entertainment center, wainscoting, base trim and window casing). Although we had a design in mind before we hired Wright Brothers, they were able to offer suggestions to improve what we had already started. Their prices were very fair and the communication from the beginning to the end of the project was outstanding. We never felt pressured to do anything and they were always upfront and transparent when items outside the scope of work were identified. Guests are constantly amazed when they walk in our basement and see the before and after pictures. It is a place our family will use for many years to come thanks to the quality, dependability and integrity Cameron and Jordan put into their jobs."

"This is the second time I have hired Sean, and once again his work exceeded my expectations. Sean is always thorough, detailed and quality focused. His work ethic is beyond reproach. He does NOT speed through the job, but takes the right amount to time to make sure it is done right the first time. You never have to call him back to fix anything. I highly recommend Master MCG Remodeling for any of your household remodeling projects."

"We just had our basement finished, and the sub-contractors that were brought in did a great job. We never had to deal with anything. It was all managed by Seth and Phil. We received a finished basement with everything that we wanted."

"Hometown Construction was an excellent partner in the construction of my deck and basement remodel. Josh was professional, listened to my concerns and finished on time and on budget. His subcontractors emulated the same values and professionalism as Josh."

"Rich and his team totally crushed our basement remodel. They gave me a great estimate, and final price didnâ t change. His team was on one time, diligent, and finished on time. Having worked with other contractors, this was the best experience Iâ ve ever had. Canâ t wait to hire them again to remodel the upstairs."

"I worked with Baker Builders on finishing my basement (around 900 sqft, with a full bathroom and a wet bar area). I started the project in late 2019, just before the pandemic. They took the measurements and proposed the layout. Due to the pandemic the project was put on hold. I was very pleasantly surprised that when I resumed the project in early 2021 we didn't have to start from the scratch - we could jump directly to the execution. The basement has been finished according to the plan, and I could not be happier with the outcome. Every detail has been taken care of, and I have no doubts as to the quality of the work performed. Each crew working on the project was extremely accommodating about any smaller and bigger requests that I had during the execution. Travis, who was the project manager, deserves a separate mention. Thanks to him the project went so smoothly. I really appreciated the initial schedule provided by him, and that we actually followed it to a large extent. There was no unreasonable delays, and generally things happened when they were supposed to. I was really afraid the project would drag for much longer, based on previous experiences with other companies, but Travis just made it happen! He was on top of things all the time. He accommodated each of my requests, his responsiveness was truly amazing, and I really have never worked with anyone like this on any other project. In general, Baker Builders did an outstanding job with this basement project. Every aspect of it - the price, timeliness, responsiveness, no hidden cost, no unexpected delays, even accommodating COVID precautions - made this is a very pleasant and smooth experience. This is a very solid 5 stars, and with no hesitation I would recommend Baker Builders to any of my friends (which I already did), or use them for any project in the future."

"Andy and his dad did a great job on the trim work of the house. They even fixed up some other things, like doors that weren't closing properly. They had to come back to finish up some of the work but were prompt in doing so. Andy always had great communication and was very helpful throughout the process. Would definitely hire them for another project in the future."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

If you have the woodworking experience to build a bar from scratch and you have the time, DIYing the work is a no-brainer and can save a few thousand dollars. However, if you’re looking to include a sink, additional lighting fixtures, or high-end bar tops and cabinets, it’s usually a better idea to call in a pro. It will cost more, but the finished product will likely be worth it.

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.
