"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

If you’re not sure which method of raising the ceiling is best for you, here are a couple of considerations to help you make that decision. A professional ceiling company will be able to help you determine the best option for your home.

  • How long you are planning to live there: although raising the basement ceiling will increase the value of your home, if you’re planning to sell the house, then go for raising the house.

  • The condition of the foundation: to lower the floors, your foundation has to be intact whereas raising the house will allow you to restore the damaged foundation.

Save money on your basement finishing project by making cost-effective decisions such as minimizing structural changes and avoiding costly construction revisions. DIY simpler tasks such as painting or basic cleanup to reduce labor costs. You can also opt for energy-efficient fixtures and materials that may qualify for rebates or tax incentives.

Any bowing in a basement wall indicates a problem that needs to be addressed by a professional. If your basement wall bows more than 1 inch, it's time for an inspection. Generally, a wall can bow up to 30% of its thickness (around 2.5 inches for an 8-inch-thick wall) before it becomes an urgent situation. Bowing of 2 to 4 inches is more straightforward to fix than bowing of more than 4 inches, which will require significant repairs. If the bowing is more than 6 inches, the wall will likely need to be replaced. The sooner you address the problem, the easier and less expensive the repair will be.

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.

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.
