"I can’t say enough good things about Chris and his team at Dynamic Basements Plus. From start to finish, they were always on time, highly professional, and excellent communicators—keeping me informed at every stage of the project. They transformed my unfinished basement into a beautiful, versatile living space, adding nearly 600 square feet to my home. Every aspect of the work was top-notch—from framing, plumbing, and electrical to painting and final finishes. The quality of craftsmanship truly stands out. Chris and his team were also incredibly innovative, offering great ideas to maximize the space while using high-quality materials specifically suited for a basement environment.

"I recently hired Erick's Painting Services LLC for a full interior repaint of my home, and I can confidently say they are the best in the business. From the initial consultation to the final brushstroke, their professionalism, attention to detail, and customer service were truly outstanding. The team was punctual, respectful of my space, and meticulously clean — they took great care to protect my furniture and flooring and left no mess behind. The color consultation was incredibly helpful; their expert provided thoughtful suggestions that matched my style and lighting perfectly. The quality of the workmanship is second to none. Every line is crisp, every coat is even, and the finish looks like something out of a magazine. They used premium paints, and the results speak for themselves — my home feels completely transformed.

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Yes, most general contractors require a down payment for project completion. A reasonable down payment for a contractor is 10% to 25% of the total project cost, though that will vary based on project size and location. The down payment helps cover the upfront costs of materials and permits and helps ensure payment for the project at hand. 

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

Yes, finishing a basement is worth the money in most cases. Although the project is a relatively expensive one, finishing a basement adds usable square footage to your home and typically increases your home value. Many times, your finished basement will add value that’s equal to or greater than the cost of finishing.

Professional remodelers streamline the process, manage permits, and handle renovations efficiently—significantly mitigating risk while maintaining standards.

Yes, you can add a door to your basement—it might even be required, depending on building codes in your area and whether or not you’re using the basement as a bedroom. A basement contractor can give you some advice on installation and help you add a door to your basement.
