"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 obtained 5 estimates before making our decision to go with BGS Renovations.  Theirs was neither the highest nor the lowest priced estimate.  They seemed to understand the vision I had to refurbish my 30+ year old kitchen with something that brought it into the 21st century, while knowing I had a budget of $15,000.00 I had to adhere to.  Their fee was the biggest portion of the budget, coming in at $5,200.00......and well worth every penny!   They completed the entire renovation in 3 weeks!!!!
We appreciated the fact that Gary and Norm arrived each morning on time, worked throughout the day without a lot of "down time".  They were professional and pleasant to have in our home.  They cleaned up the kitchen area each and every day before they left.  The garage area became the "work shop" and "storage area" during the renovation so it was impossible to clean the garage every day, although they picked up after themselves as much as they could.  We had a lot of rain during this time, but they were still able to get the cabinet doors and drawers spray painted and installed within their time frame.
We were amazed at the skills they possess.....electrical, plumbing, carpentry, painting, tile work, cabinetry.  We feel that we were very fortunate to have chosen these two young men to make our kitchen from old and tired to new and beautiful.  We highly recommend these two gentlemen and their company and look forward to having them back to do other projects in the near future,"

"Tim was very responsive from day one.  The job was on a cabin about 3 hours from where I live and he updated me regularly on the progress of the work. With the rain we have had this summer, the job turned into much more than he had bargained for (or quoted for)...but he stuck with it until the job was completed.  The work he did for me turned out great and I would highly recommend him to anybody looking for a hard working and honest contractor who does excellent work.

"Amanda was really very good!  At first I was very skeptical, thinking why did I pay money to just speak with someone on the phone about my kitchen remodel project... but after just a few minutes of her addressing some of the issues/questions I emailed to her earlier, I knew it was worth it.  It was very clear that she knew her business and she gave me several ideas that I had not even thought about.  I told her that I would definitely recommend her to friends and I will very likely use her again myself for my next home project!

"Terry is very good at what he does. And when it comes to handyman services, he can really do it all. He built two bedrooms from our loft and master bedroom from scratch. Put up drywalls, doors, cabinets, replaced and installed three toilets, replace and installed three ceiling fans, installed new ac vents, replaced bathroom faucets, replaced bidets for toilets, and even created additional electrical outlets. He is very knowledgeable, kind. Courteous, and professional. His prices are very reasonable and affordable compared to the rest. The quality you get from the work he does is money well spent. I highly recommend you hire Terry Tapman handyman services for your next home renovation."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Yes, most general contractors require an initial down payment. A reasonable deposit is typically between 10% and 25% of the total project cost, although this can vary by project size and location. This upfront payment helps the contractor cover initial costs like materials, permits, licensing, and hiring subcontractors. The remaining balance is usually billed according to a schedule outlined in your contract, often tied to project milestones or completion dates. Be cautious of contractors who ask for a large deposit of 50% or more, as this could be a red flag for a scam.

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

Yes, in most cases, finishing a basement is worth the cost. The project adds valuable, usable square footage to your home and typically provides a return on investment (ROI) of 70% to 75%. For example, an average basement refinishing project costing $32,000 could add between $22,400 and $24,000 to your property's value. The final value added depends on factors like your location, the quality of materials and workmanship, and the features you include, such as a living space, bedroom, or bathroom. To be officially counted in your home's total square footage, the finished space must comply with all local building codes, including requirements for points of egress. However, in areas prone to flooding, a finished basement might be seen as a liability by potential buyers and could potentially decrease your home's value.

Lifting a house and adding a basement is one way to add usable square footage. Lifting or jacking a house is a complex process, and it can be expensive, not to mention that you won’t be able to live in your house while it’s lifted, due to safety concerns. Lifting a house should only be done by experienced professionals.

Professional remodelers streamline the process, manage permits, and handle renovations efficiently—significantly mitigating risk while maintaining standards.
