"Sergey and the team at Elite did a great job with our basement remodel, we are very happy with the results. The entire team (including subcontractors) were professional and respectful. I would use them again for any project that we have."

Rest assured, we will hire Affordable Remodels again for our next home upgrade whatever that may be!"

"It went great. Jerry showed up, as scheduled and prioritized jobs to fit with the ever changing spring weather! What would have taken me at least a month of procrastination, Jerry had finished in two days. Since he has so many building and finishing skills, I think I will have him do some remodeling next!"
"Nathan completed about 20 different jobs within 2 weeks on our 120-year old house, porch, basement, & garage. Every detail was handled perfectly! The results are beautiful & we couldnâ  t be happier. Apparently there isnâ  t anything he canâ  t do! We were impressed with his character & knowledge from the initial consultation. He was helpful, creative, timely, focused, precise, neat & clean, and went beyond our expectations with all of his work, which he completed entirely himself. His pricing was perfectly fair. We have already recommended him to others, & will be proud to continue doing so. Thank you so very much, Nathan!!"
"Tim was very quick to respond as he was there soon after the flood. He was very professional in helping us determine what needed to be done, and then executed it all without a hitch. As mentioned previously, he took the time and had the tools and skills to make a big mess clean once again. The finished basement was completely cleaned up. He also worked well with our renters. Very efficient and gave us a good price for the work. Thanks to him and his company."

Yes, most general contractors require an initial down payment, typically between 10% and 25% of the total project cost. This upfront payment helps cover the costs of materials, permits, and subcontractors. The remaining project costs are usually billed after specific project milestones are reached or on set completion dates, as outlined in your contract. Be wary of contractors who require a significant deposit of 50% or more upfront, as this could be a red flag for a scam.
Renovation enhances functionality, increases home value, and can add new space for personal or family needs. It typically modernizes older unfinished basements for new uses.
Adding an extension or addition to your home costs more than a loft conversion in all but the rarest cases where the home's structural integrity is lacking. Because a home addition requires a new foundation section or significant structural upgrades to handle a cantilevered portion, the cost compared to almost any loft conversion is significantly greater for the same square footage.
Basements with persistent moisture problems or flooding shouldn’t be finished until the moisture issues have been fixed. In addition, if your foundation is cracked, you have unmitigated radon levels, or you have asbestos or lead pipes, remediate the underlying problem before finishing your basement. Turning a basement into living space before fixing these issues can lead to serious health risks or structural damage.
Rebar is an essential part of reinforcing a basement floor, as not having it can impact its structural integrity. It helps absorb the tension factors that contribute to cracks in your floor and strengthens its load-bearing capabilities by evenly distributing the weight. Not including rebar could lead to an unstable floor, so don’t skip it!
