"Project went well and Titan really worked hard to pull off all the permitting and local requirements for this project. All the teams working were top quality, respectful professionals who renovated our basement. Titan added in a kitchen, full bathroom, flooring, electrical, lighting, all new plumbing including sump pump and slab cuts. In addition a new HVAC and tankless water heater were installed. The final product was above expectations and within budget. We have since hired Titan for an additional project."

"I cannot say enough about Chuck Miller. He exceeded our expectations. He was efficient, reliable, professional and above all his work was amazing.

The entire process was easy and as stress free as possible. Even when there were a few bumps in the road due to pre-existing issues in our basement, Chuck explained in detail what the issue was and how they could fix it.

We are a locally owned and operated company with over 15 years of industry experience. We specialize in a variety of home improvement projects, including basements, bathrooms, and kitchens. We pride ourselves on the quality of our work as well as our commitment to outstanding results. We look forward to building lasting relationships with our clients and guarantee your satisfaction!

"We couldn’t be happier with our new master bathroom! Salar, our project manager, was exceptional — he kept everything running smoothly, coordinated all subcontractors seamlessly, and even arranged for work to continue while we were out of town so the schedule never slipped. Communication was outstanding; he answered every question quickly and thoroughly, whether by text, phone, or email, so we always felt informed. Every worker who came into our home was courteous, considerate of our work-from-home schedules, and kept the job site spotless. The craftsmanship is top-notch — from the flawless tilework in the walk-in shower to the perfectly installed freestanding tub, vanity, and lighting. Even toward the end, when small touch-ups were needed, Salar ensured every detail was completed to our satisfaction. The result is a stunning, spa-like bathroom we’ll enjoy for years to come, and we can’t recommend this team enough."

Rick Wright, owner of ACG has over 30 years experience in the construction industry. Mr Wright is personally involved with each and every job from the estimating appointment until job completion, there is absolutely no middle man. Customer satisfaction is our first priority and quality craftsmanship is guaranteed. It is our goal to meet each customers deadline for job completion on every project. ACG has a vast array of employees including painters, framers, jack of all trades professionals, tile, wood & carpet layers. We pride ourselves in the placement of the right tradesman for the right job.

"We had the absolute pleasure of working with Rick Weight of Alpha Construction Group at 1608 Cordillo Ct, Dacula, GA, and we couldn't be more thrilled with the results. Rick transformed our basement into a beautifully designed, fully self-contained living space, perfect for multi-generational living. The renovation included a stunning kitchen, spacious bedroom, and a full bathroom—culminating in a fully functional two-bedroom suite. Not only did Rick deliver exceptional craftsmanship and high-quality work, but he also completed the project ahead of schedule—a rare feat in the world of construction. From start to finish, he was professional, friendly, and incredibly responsive, answering every question and addressing every concern we had with care and expertise. What truly sets Rick apart, however, is how he goes above and beyond. He generously installed cabinet knobs in the kitchen and shower hooks throughout the house—at no additional cost. These thoughtful touches reflect his commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction. My wife and I are deeply thankful for Rick’s outstanding work and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to transform their space with confidence and peace of mind."

Specifically for my project, besides "eye-balling" the exposed problems, Jay used thermal devices to find out potential plumbing leaks hidden behind the drywall (quite amazing). He also flew a drone over the roof to inspect all details of the roofing. The inspection was very thorough and fun. Drone application make it even more exciting!!!

"Excellence, Exceptional and Exceeds. Those three words describe my experience with Homevantage. I recently contracted with Michael McArthur and his Homevantage team to build a screened-in back patio from just a small concrete slab. I showed Michael pictures of what I had in mind without even seeing anything like it in person and boy did it pay off, my vision was brought to life. The craftsmanship was excellent, the customer service from beginning to end was exceptional and the end product exceeded my expectations. I am very happy and have received so many compliments on how beautiful my new addition is from everyone who has seen the completed project. It was an overall great experience and I would highly recommend using this company for any type of residential remodeling you are seeking because without a doubt I am very glad that I did. Thank you Michael, Pamela, Tyler and the rest of the team for all the great work on this project."

We are local construction company specialize in roofing and general construction; siding, painting, design, build and remodel. You can contact us with any construction questions you may have. We will respond with honesty and most sincere way. Thank you

"PLEASE READ: Mark was great to work with in the beginning. After I did calculations for some items, Mark became angry and stopped communicating. Before construction could continue, I needed to get an electrician out because there was a real issue. Mark insisted there wasn't. After I insisted and called him out on his lack of communication, he said he was sending over his electrician the next morning. I cancelled plans and stayed home to wait on electrician. I never heard from Mark and he did not respond to texts. I called and he said there was nothing wrong and a new switch was installed. I called an electrician. There was an issue and the new switch was not installed. We also agreed that I would pay for flooring materials on main floor(lvp and underlayment) and Mark would demo and level kitchen and provide transition and baseboard. The floor is sloped in an area and there is a random square board and cuts in wood in more than one area. Mark used my old cheap laminate as a transition board on the stairs. This is not a joke or exaggeration. In addition, Mark did not use the underlayment that I purchased at his recommendation. Mark’s company cut and painted flooring on my gray stained covered porch without putting anything down. I have this on blink video occurring all day. There was paint and dust all over the porch. Mark does not apologize ever. The area had sharp small nails on stairs that were not even worked on. Mark said my request to correct this is ridiculous and said he would not repair slope. I’ve given him every opportunity to repair. I asked for an additional contract so we could let the contract guide us instead. Mark refused to add repairing of slope area and ignores me about underlayment. I asked him not to continue work or send his guys back for other work(He is doing insurance work on bottom floor.) Mark sent his guys twice after this and they just came into the house. I sent them home on Labor Day and texted Mark that I explicitly asked him not to be on the property until we had a signed agreement. His response was they could just work in garage. Update: 9/9/24! Mark is now demanding I take the reviews down or he won’t repair floors. The nightmare continues. He said he is putting a lien on my house. He says I am preventing him from doing the work but that is a complete lie. Read all details above to understand."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

If you don’t have a crawl space but have a partial basement you want to make deeper, you can expect to spend a little less—between $40,000 and $90,000 on average. However, if you’re not adding new finished square footage, you won’t see much in the way of ROI.

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.

There are several small, inexpensive upgrades you can make to upgrade your basement. Although you still need to adhere to building codes and obtain permits when necessary, you can complete small but mighty tasks like painting the masonry walls and installing entertainment devices to make the space more usable. 

Yes, most general contractors require a down payment for project completion. A reasonable down payment for a contractor is 10% to 25% of the total project cost, though that will vary based on project size and location. The down payment helps cover the upfront costs of materials and permits and helps ensure payment for the project at hand. 

You can paint your ceiling or install a drywall ceiling if the ceiling is unfinished, as they take up less headroom than drop ceilings. 

If there are pipes in the way of ceiling installation, you can do one of two things: reroute the pipes or adjust the installation to fit, which will cost extra.
