"We were so please with the work finishing our basement from the start to the finish. Jordan spent the time with us in the initial layout and planning and worked openly with our ideas. During the construction they were super neat and cleaned up daily. They kept to the schedule and the budget. Best of all is that our basement looks awesome!! Would highly recommend these brothers for your construction work!"

"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."

"I couldn't be happier with my bathroom remodel! From the very beginning, the team made the whole process easy and stress-free. They took the time to listen to what I wanted, answered all my questions, and kept me updated every step of the way. The attention to detail was incredible, and the finished bathroom turned out even better than I imagined. The tile work, fixtures, and overall craftsmanship are beautiful. The crew was always on time, respectful, and made sure everything was cleaned up at the end of each day. What was once an outdated bathroom is now one of my favorite rooms in the house. I genuinely enjoy spending time in it, and I've received so many compliments from family and friends. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality work and a team that truly cares about their customers."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Making a window in a basement larger costs an average of $4,200. You’ll need to pay an average of $550 to have a structural engineer plan the project, $500 to $1,500 for the installation labor, and an average of $2,200 for the excavation and window well installation. The remainder will go toward pulling permits, installing trim, and repairing drywall on the interior.

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.

Yes, most general contractors require an initial down payment. A reasonable deposit is typically between 10% and 25% of the total project cost, although this can vary by project size and location. This upfront payment helps the contractor cover initial costs like materials, permits, licensing, and hiring subcontractors. The remaining balance is usually billed according to a schedule outlined in your contract, often tied to project milestones or completion dates. Be cautious of contractors who ask for a large deposit of 50% or more, as this could be a red flag for a scam.

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.
