"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!

"Curt was very nice. He did amazing work. When he ran into some difficulties he very carefully thought out the solution. Cleaned everything up and put stuff away or back where it belonged. My husband and I were very pleased with his work. He not only did a great job he went the extra mile to make the job absolutely top notch. It was so refreshing to have someone with integrity and professionalism doing the jobs."

"Mike's Team was quick on the job, appropriately dressed, knowledgeable. As with any replacement of an old door it tends can be a bit challenging due to factors out of control like old house settles after 50 years of use. But that is why I choose Pelletier HandyMan Service. Team was experienced and job was done professionally. Clean up was quickly done and after they left you never new they had been there--door fit and worked exactly as it was designed to work. A tight even fit. Would I hire again, would I recommend--Does a bear like honey! YES YES. A small job yes but other bid quotes were huge compared to Pelletier HandyMan Services. Another point I want to make clear-- while job was small I never felt treated small. THAN YOU to a great team."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Costs are guided by renovation scope, materials chosen, project duration, structural needs, and labor. Prioritizing tasks prevents unforeseen expenses.

While bathrooms and kitchens are nearly equal in terms of renovation difficulty, kitchens are the most challenging. Kitchen design, layout, electrical, and plumbing needs all depend on each other for the success of the entire project, and mistakes early in the project can cause trouble later on.

Renovations that add functionality or more comfortable floor space generally add the most value when remodeling your home. Attic or basement finishing can add floor space without altering the home's structure, saving you renovation money while adding valuable space. Smaller improvements, such as installing smart-home components or replacing entry doors and windows, also experience high ROIs. 

Yes. Renovating your basement has a return on investment (ROI) of 75%, meaning your remodel investment will significantly increase the value of your home. Besides the ROI, your family can enjoy a larger, more usable space while you live there. 

The average cost of remodeling a basement is $30 to $75 per square foot. If your space is unfinished and looks like it may need more help, use the higher number when calculating your estimated basement remodeling costs. A good rule of thumb is to add an additional 20% to the top of your estimate to cover any “what if” situations.
