"Martin quickly responded to phone calls. His employee was very prompt, pleasant, and a hard worker. The floor looks wonderful! I would highly recommend them. This is the second time we have used them. 7 years ago we used them for a total basement renovation including bathroom installation. We were very pleased with the quality of that work as well."

"Guy and his team were amazing and professional. Guy was able to recommend solutions to resolve ongoing water problems in the basement, completed the install and finished the basement. It has added significant square footage and value to our home. Additionally, he completely remodeled the kitchen and was able to suggest small but important finishing details the really brought the project together. The kitchen is transformed and is a gathering spot for the whole family. Guy has also helped us out with smaller odds and ends including installing new outlets and breakers, repairing drywall, and smaller paint jobs. I would recommend Guy and his team over and over again!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, adding a walkout basement will usually bump up your property value. Most homeowners prefer walk out basements because the exposed wall that’s level with the ground provides more utility via a ground-level exterior entrance, and they can fit full windows, which adds natural light and ventilation to the basement area. The only exception might be in areas prone to tornadoes, as walkout basements aren’t as safe as regular basements during a tornado, particularly if they include large windows or glass sliding doors.

Basements are commonly converted into game rooms. The potential challenges you may run into include controlling moisture, working with low ceilings, limited natural light, and the need for additional electrical or HVAC work. Addressing these issues can add to the total cost, but it ensures a comfortable and functional space.

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.

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
