"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

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.

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.

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. 

Living in a finished basement is acceptable, but only if the space has the proper points of egress and includes smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) detectors to ensure the safety of the occupants. A good way to ensure your finished basement is suitable for use as living space is to get the basement finishing project properly permitted.

A finished basement must have a heat and electrical supply with an entrance that meets building code requirements, such as a stairwell to the home's main living space. It often must include finished walls, ceilings, and floors. If the finished basement includes a bedroom, it should have a heat source, an egress window, and a closet.

Remodeling, as opposed to finishing, means altering an already finished basement by adding a bathroom, bedroom, or living area.
