"What a great experience my family had with J & H Stoneworks! Not only was Jaime and his staff professional, they were able to assist us with transporting items in which others in his trade profession could not! We had spent countless hours contacting multitudes of companies to move a crate of heavy items and believed we had exhausted all our options and we were becoming discouraged. Some companies said they could move the items but in the end could not. We were discouraged until we spoke Jaime. Before he agreed to do the job, unlike other companies we contacted, he first took the time to go out to see what the job was to ensure he could accommodate us. J and H was a God-send to us. We were provided a fair cost for the move and within a few hours he worked with us to adjust his schedule to get everything moved and moved the next day! There were no issues on the day of the move. We could tell that he and his employees knew exactly what they were doing! I can not say enough about how much they helped my family resolve an issue we had been dealing with for several months. I recommend J & H to anyone who is looking for a professional, reliable,reasonably priced and personable company that knows how to get the job done. - Casandra Patterson"

"It worked out well. The price was very good, and that is why I asked for it. I added some things so I paid more. The quality was good, it was not exceptional, but it was good. I had an appointment and then they called and said they couldn't make it that day, so we had to reschedule, but they called me, they didn't make me wait. They were punctual, they came exactly when they said they were coming. "

"Great job - Steve came out and quoted when he said he would, the price was fair, and the work was done very quickly, within 2 weeks. His workers were skilled, showed up every day on time, were courteous, and they all did a great job. I would definitely recommend Steve for any remodeling and repair work!"

"We called Mr. Marku about repairing a home attached shed that had seen better days. He quickly came out and discussed the project with us, took a few photographs and let us know how much the project would be. After my wife and I talked, we agreed this was a very fair price. A week later, Mr. Marku and his wife started on the project. At the end of the first day, we knew we had made a great decision on hiring Marku Construction. Throughout the 3 days they worked, they always provided excellent communication of how the project was going and what the next steps would be. They kept the work area clean when they left at the end of the day and put the small amount of debris out to the street. When the project was complete, we couldn’t believe our eyes. The ramshackle shed that was an embarrassment was now something we could be proud off. The job Marku did with the framing, siding, doors and painting made the shed a structure that can withstand the next 20 years and complement the rest of our home. My wife and I would hire Marku Construction again."

"Realestate Restoration was hired for a total house remodel from top to bottom of a 2-story property. Not only did they perform the services up to standard, but they went above and beyond to make sure we were happy! The project was finished on time and their communication was great! I would highly recommend them!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Rebar is an essential part of reinforcing a basement floor, as not having it can impact its structural integrity. It helps absorb the tension factors that contribute to cracks in your floor and strengthens its load-bearing capabilities by evenly distributing the weight. Not including rebar could lead to an unstable floor, so don’t skip it!

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.

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.

Unless you have extensive experience in construction work, remodeling a basement is best left to a professional. There are several tasks associated with this project that require exact precision, including:

  • Replacing insulation 

  • Replacing carpet or other flooring 

  • Adding heating and cooling

  • Adjusting or adding walls and doors

  • Altering or adding plumbing elements

If any of these elements is done incorrectly, it could severely impact the quality of your basement remodel and be dangerous. Changing a basement often comes with code safety requirements, like egress windows and proper ventilation. Therefore, leaving it up to a professional is often the best decision.

In addition to overseeing new home builds, construction managers work on large renovations and major remodels. For example, they may work with designers and oversee the construction of a finished basement, kitchen renovation, or a home addition. They may also oversee large-scale remodels, such as the update of a historic home. Construction managers step into small projects for more specific assistance, such as building budgets and compiling the team.
