"We recently hired Sosso Remodeling to renovate our condo in North Palm Beach, FL, while we were still residing in New Jersey, and the experience exceeded all expectations! From start to finish, Octavian was absolutely incredible—his communication, craftsmanship, and attention to detail made this long-distance renovation completely stress-free. Despite the distance, Octavian kept us updated every step of the way with regular photos, videos, and clear explanations of the progress. He was always responsive, addressing any questions or concerns promptly, which gave us total peace of mind. His dedication to quality is evident in every detail of the renovation—the workmanship is top-notch, and our home looks absolutely stunning! If you're looking for a reliable, skilled, and trustworthy contractor, we highly recommend Sosso Remodeling. Octavian and his team turned our vision into reality, and we couldn't be happier!"

"I was scheduled to have the work done on Sept 30.
On Sept 25, he was in my area so he called to see if he could do the work.  I said yes.
He came installed my door, cleaned up after and had me check the work to make sure I was happy.
Then, he was very, very fair with the price he charged me.  He was very professional and nice.
I will not hesitate to contact this provider again the next time I need work done.
I cannot imagine anybody else being as good and nice as Dan.

"There were two 1950 bathrooms that we wanted to completely renovate. We started with another contractor that was awful and was terminated. We knew it would be difficult to find a contractor that would finish the other contractors work and correct their mistakes. Fernando graciously took on the task and, lucky for us, found many mistakes. He handled the obstacles quickly and tirelessly without complaint. The two bathrooms came out beautiful with large format ceramic tiles. We were so impressed with his work that we continued with other projects in the house including interior and exterior repainting, carpentry, and general repair of some messy areas that we were leaving for another day. He was present to review the work of his crew almost every day and his crews were friendly, respectful, and cleaned up after their work. His proposals were fair but at the upper range of the proposals we received. (I have found looking for the lowest price can lead to disaster). His invoicing was timely and detailed. The only drawback is his workers are Brazilian and some only speak Portuguese. This may lead to lead to communication issues at times. Learned to use Google translator and it is was very helpful with English to Portuguese."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Basements with persistent moisture problems or flooding shouldn’t be finished until the moisture issues have been fixed. In addition, if your foundation is cracked, you have unmitigated radon levels, or you have asbestos or lead pipes, remediate the underlying problem before finishing your basement. Turning a basement into living space before fixing these issues can lead to serious health risks or structural damage. 

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.

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.

Finishing a basement can provide a great return on investment, by increasing the market price of your home when you want to sell. Beyond that, there are many reasons to finish your basement. Doing so expands the usable square footage of your home, so you can enjoy it more, even as your family grows. Renovating your basement costs less in terms of time, energy, and money than having to search for and buy a new home.

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.
