"Jim is awesome!! I picked him out of the blue from Angie's list, and thankfully so, as we were very pleased with his work, and the cost was reasonable. He's dependable, patient, professional, and holds to his word on "lifetime guarantee" -- after a year, the original work needed some updating and Jim took care of just as he had promised. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Jim. Our bathroom looks great thanks to Jim!"

"They are excellent! They were here on time, went right to work and made sure everything was working properly before they left. They also made sure that every piece of lint or fuzz was cleaned up and left spotless."

"We've had Patrick at our home for several different projects. The first time he removed an old ceiling fan and installed a new fan in the bathroom. It went so well, that we had him move a ceiling fan from one room to another, then install a new ceiling fan in the dining room. We have an older home and he had to do more work than expected to install one of the fans. Even though it cost him more time than estimated, he stuck with his original price. A few months later he worked on an exterior door that we were having trouble closing and locking. Patrick replaced the hinges and squared up the opening. We were also going to replace the door knob but after he realigned the door, he found that there was no reason to. The last project we had him do was a small repair on the metal roof that came loose on one edge of the house. It's a 2 story house so for safety reasons we rented a lift and he had the repair done in a few hours. I will definitely hire Patrick again. His prices are more than fair, he sticks by his word and he's able to do most any repair that is needed. He shows up on time and works fast and efficiently. Thanks Patrick Mark Morris"

"Excellent job by Mr. Marku and his team. He replaced the sides of our fence and also installed a new gate. His services were priced fairly and his team arrived on time and finished installing the fence ahead of schedule. They also removed the old fence and left the area clean. I would highly recommend Marku construction for all your handyman / household needs. We definitely will be using his services again in the future. I'd give more than 5 stars if I can!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Building up by adding square footage to the top of your home is often less expensive than adding a basement, but it depends on the specifics of your house, your property, and supply costs. Because building a basement requires excavation, it can be a more expensive option than building up.

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.

Walkout basements cost more than other kinds of basements, and can also increase your risk of leaks as well as a loss of insulation, leading to higher heating and cooling costs. Improperly installed walkout basements may lead to structural issues with your foundation, so ensure you’re working with a contractor who has extensive experience with this kind of basement.

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.

Physically, the most challenging part of finishing a basement is installing egress windows or doors when the space is below ground level. Mentally, the hardest part may be envisioning the project and planning around load-bearing and mechanical obstacles.
