"Partial basement completion. Created a bedroom, a bathroom, and a storage room in our unfinished basement. Fantastic work and very, very fast. We had a certain timeline, we knew it would be tight, but the Elite team worked it in around previously schedule jobs and got it done. Everything is beautifully done and we greatly appreciate the excellent work. The entire crew was courteous, extremely knowledgeable, and very professional, making sure we were satisfied all along the way. Great job!"

"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!

"Jeremy and Michelle have been incredible to work with. First and foremost, they are just genuinely good and trustworthy people. They have guided us through the build process and made things so easy. Michelle has a great eye for design and aesthetics and has been an indispensable resource in helping us make design decisions. Jeremy is able to effectively bring his building experience to bear to explain various concepts and concerns about how the house is to be built. He has been so patient with us and our tendency to add last-minute changes (I know, weâ re that kind of homeowners; donâ t be like us in that way). In analyzing and responding to our â great ideas,â he has consistently focused on finding the best way to make our design dreams a reality, while also clearly explaining the pros, cons, and costs of our available options. Beyond Jeremy and Michelle, their framing crew has been a pleasure to interact with; they are good-natured honest guys who have never complained about having to make our requested changes and have been willing to put in later days to get things done. Jeremy and Michelle have good relationships with a lot of subcontractors in the area, and every sub theyâ ve recommended has been great to work with as well. While we havenâ t finished construction yet, I can say that it has progressed faster than expected (even with our changes), and has been on budget. We look forward to completing this project and working with them again in the future."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Roughing in and connecting utilities are the hardest parts of finishing a basement, and they’re the parts we typically don’t recommend doing as a DIY project. Unfortunately, your finishing timeline can be extended by weeks while you wait for contractors and inspectors to install electrical wiring, plumbing lines, and heating/cooling equipment and carry out inspections.

Finishing a basement can provide a great return on investment, by increasing the market price of your home when you want to sell. Beyond that, there are many reasons to finish your basement. Doing so expands the usable square footage of your home, so you can enjoy it more, even as your family grows. Renovating your basement costs less in terms of time, energy, and money than having to search for and buy a new home.

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.

Yes, most general contractors require an initial down payment. A reasonable deposit is typically between 10% and 25% of the total project cost, although this can vary by project size and location. This upfront payment helps the contractor cover initial costs like materials, permits, licensing, and hiring subcontractors. The remaining balance is usually billed according to a schedule outlined in your contract, often tied to project milestones or completion dates. Be cautious of contractors who ask for a large deposit of 50% or more, as this could be a red flag for a scam.

Since DIYing a basement remodel isn't typically advised, there are some ways that you can still save money on this project without putting yourself in danger. Some ways to save money on a basement remodel include:

  • Painting walls yourself versus including in the cost of the remodel 

  • Installing light fixtures yourself

  • Choosing prefabricated fixtures, like cabinets, over custom ones

  • Choosing a budget-friendly flooring option, like laminate or vinyl flooring, and add rugs where necessary
