"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."

"We had a rough sketch for what we wanted to do with our unfinished basement. They came by, took some measurements, and worked with us to come up with a final design we were happy with. Construction started promptly and they were able to finish within a very short schedule. Throughout construction, they were quick, professional, and always willing to answer any questions I had. Highly recommend."

"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."

"Emilio and his team did a fantastic job scraping out popcorn ceilings, retexturing them, and painting them all throughout the house and garage. When the paint started to crack in a couple places, he immediately came back and refinished the area until it was perfect. Emilio is also very responsive via text and takes pride in his work. We would highly recommend Drywall 614 for any project"

"Edgar as his team were great. Home reno/rehab is NOT for the faint of heart so if you are having a team come in and do the dirty work remember it'll get dirty! We had Edgar and his team take down popcorn ceilings throughout our entire new home. Boy was that a project! We COULDN'T be happier with the results. The team is really fun and sweet. They do GREAT work. For a fantastic price. We are already planning on remodeling the basement and we know EXACTLY who we would be calling. Thanks Edgar + Team. Great work! :)"

"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."

"We hired Galto Residential Contracting to remove the popcorn ceiling from the entire first floor of our house, plus the second floor stairway and hallway areas. I was given a competitive bid (one of four bids received) and we scheduled to work. Andy Galto and his crew arrived as scheduled, and completed to project in a workman like fashion on a timely basis. Popcorn ceiling removal is inherently messy. The real issue is in prepping the ceiling drywall for a smooth finish. The contractor worked with us to get the smooth white finish we wanted, done to our satisfaction. The premises were cleaned up at the conclusion of the project, though we still had to deal with some of the drywall dust generated though the smooth sanding of the new ceiling. Overall, we are very pleased with the work done, and at a fair price."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

There are several small, inexpensive upgrades you can make to upgrade your basement. Although you still need to adhere to building codes and obtain permits when necessary, you can complete small but mighty tasks like painting the masonry walls and installing entertainment devices to make the space more usable. 

Key trends include home gyms, theatre rooms, additional rooms (bedroom/office), and more, with personalized styles reflecting individual preferences.

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.

Common mistakes when finishing basement walls include neglecting proper insulation, insufficient moisture management, and poor ventilation. Not addressing these issues can lead to mold growth, water damage, and discomfort. Additionally, inadequate planning, improper framing, and rushing the project can result in subpar outcomes. 

It's essential to follow best practices, seek professional guidance if needed, and prioritize thoroughness and attention to detail.

In addition to overseeing new home builds, construction managers work on large renovations and major remodels. For example, they may work with designers and oversee the construction of a finished basement, kitchen renovation, or a home addition. They may also oversee large-scale remodels, such as the update of a historic home. Construction managers step into small projects for more specific assistance, such as building budgets and compiling the team.
