"Calvin and his crew worked their magic turning our dark, scary basement into a bright, beautiful apartment for my aging mother who recently moved in with us. Even though we already had an idea of the floor plan we wanted, Calvin made some design suggestions, such as adding a pony wall to incorporate a support beam. This addition gave the apartment a separate office space which my mother loves! If any issues arose during construction, Calvin addressed concerns quickly and satisfactorily. He was easy to contact via phone call, text, or email, and he responded immediately. He and his whole crew were professional, and their attention to detail was exceptional. My mother can’t wait to move into her new apartment, just in time for the holidays! We couldn’t be happier with the work of MWR, LLC!"

"Alex, his brother David and his Father installed approximately 1,000 square feet of hardwoods on the main floor and upstairs hall of our home. The results are exceptional! They were professional, competent, very personable. The cost was very competitive. We are extremely pleased with the results. It's almost like having a new house. Great job!!"

"We hired to remodel our guest bathroom due to a leak. All went well and completed in a timely manner. Very professional and patient (changed my mind last minute on floor tile pattern...and grout), but still able to get it done. Bathroom looked great!"

""Outstanding Work and Professionalism" I am absolutely blown away by the exceptional work done by this team on my tongue-and-groove ceiling installation in my garage/carriage house. From start to finish, they exceeded my expectations. Accurate Quote: Their detailed quote clearly outlined materials, labor costs, and the timeline—and they delivered on every promise. Timely Execution: Despite my aggressive timeline, the team showed up promptly at 7:45 each day and worked until 5:00, completing the project on schedule. Flawless Craftsmanship: The ceiling looks incredible. The attention to detail is impeccable. Professional Team: Everyone was polite, respectful, and a pleasure to have around. They also did a fantastic job cleaning up after themselves. It’s rare to find contractors who combine skill, reliability, and professionalism at this level. I couldn’t be happier with the results. Highly recommend!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

When choosing materials for finishing basement walls, consider factors such as moisture resistance, durability, and fire resistance. Opt for materials specifically designed for basement environments, like moisture-resistant drywall or cement board. Insulation with vapor barriers can help regulate temperature and prevent condensation. Consider using mold-resistant paints or coatings. 

Research and consult with experts to select materials that are suitable for your specific basement conditions and intended use. Prioritize quality and compatibility to achieve long-lasting and aesthetically pleasing results.

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.

When considering finishing your basement, take into account a few pros and cons:

Pros

  • Can increase the value of your home

  • Separate space from the rest of the house 

  • Customize and personalize the basement to suit your needs and style

  • Increase the amount of living space in your home

Cons

  • May not regain enough value to cover the cost of finishing

  • Lack of natural light if it’s below ground level

  • Moisture or flooding can cause costly damage

  • Installing plumbing and electrical can be messy and costly

For most basement remodels, you’ll want to hire a general contractor. This is for a number of reasons, but the main two are that general contractors have dedicated teams they are comfortable with, and hiring one means you only have to deal with one pro. You may also get a better project quote since they can lump all their work and subcontracting into a single quote. 

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.
