"I wanted to do an egress window in the basement, and as I do with all my projects I look for the person whom I could easily talk to and who is informative and with good communication. Wesley with PPP was the right fit. Competitive pricing that includes not only a good finished job, BUT also in progress photos/videos, which is used for his instagram page, and a clean worksite ! Definitely worth the call and getting an opinion or plans finished !!"

"I called them and left a message about what I needed done. I received a call from them the same day. They were Abel to come the second day. The job of installing a gable vent on my house was done in less than 2 hours. I will definitely use them for my next project."

"I’m very pleased with the service and work I received from Timber Wolf contractors and his crew. He contacted me and arranged a time to look at the work I needed done. He promptly sent me a quote. He set up a time between our schedules to build my spiral staircase and replace a window with a vent. He arrived on time and completed the job beyond my satisfacon. I was so pleased with the results and communication I received, that I hired them to come to my other home to install "Flooring for my sunroom, pantry and hallway. They also painted trim and upgraded my hardware on my kitchen cabinets. I felt very comfortable with Timber and left him a key so I could go to work. I highly recommend Timber Wolf contractors for your home projects, they are professional, polite and hardworking. Respectfully, A. Saint"

"I contacted Caesar about replacing my wood deck with a composite material. I appreciated that he took the time to research and offer a few pricing options. Once we decided on what would work best for my needs we agreed to start the work. Caesar kept me informed on material and dumpster delivery dates, when he would start and finish the job. Everything was done on time and done beautifully. I am 100% pleased with the entire process and the end result. I would highly recommend Caesar and Four Seasons Enterprise for your home improvement needs!"

"Solomine replaced our roof. They did a wonderful job. They are very customer responsive and very clean and professional. I have also had them do my windows and the service is reasonable priced but the results are shining and worth the money. I recommend them highly."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

When considering finishing your basement, take into account a few pros and cons:

Pros

  • Can increase the value of your home

  • Separate space from the rest of the house 

  • Customize and personalize the basement to suit your needs and style

  • Increase the amount of living space in your home

Cons

  • May not regain enough value to cover the cost of finishing

  • Lack of natural light if it’s below ground level

  • Moisture or flooding can cause costly damage

  • Installing plumbing and electrical can be messy and costly

You should plan on waiting at least a year and ideally two to three years after construction before finishing your basement. This will give the foundation time to settle in response to the weight of your home and the expansion of the surrounding soil. You can then repair your foundation and seal any cracks as needed before finishing it to reduce your risk of future leaks or other issues.

Adding a bathroom to your basement can increase your home value since homes with multiple bathrooms sell for more. The return on investment (ROI) for a basement bathroom is 50% to 75%. The actual return varies with your home and location. Adding a half bath to your home increases the value by 2.9% while finishing a basement increases the home value by 6.6%.

When choosing materials for finishing basement walls, consider factors such as moisture resistance, durability, and fire resistance. Opt for materials specifically designed for basement environments, like moisture-resistant drywall or cement board. Insulation with vapor barriers can help regulate temperature and prevent condensation. Consider using mold-resistant paints or coatings. 

Research and consult with experts to select materials that are suitable for your specific basement conditions and intended use. Prioritize quality and compatibility to achieve long-lasting and aesthetically pleasing results.

It’s less expensive to finish your basement than it is to build an addition to your home. The average cost to refinish a basement is $32,000 (between $7 and $23 per square foot) while building an addition to your home costs $50,325 ($80 to $210 per square foot). Depending on the size of your basement and other factors, like moving plumbing and electrical, refinishing a basement is a more cost-effective option in most cases.
