"This is my second project with Elite, the basement remodel they did for me years ago is still great with no issues and the new deck they just completed is perfect. The workers were a pleasure to work with again, and the results are even better than expected. I trust Elite to do literally any and all work on my house, and I can't wait to work with them again on my next project."

"Mike is a great guy. He gave me an estimate that was on the nose and he got our basement up and running again. He was very congenial and did not make us feel uncomfortable at all. He left everything clean and tidy when he was done. I will probably asking for his help on other projects."

"Donavan did an outstanding job on our basement remodel. Took an open concrete room and turned it into our favorite place to spend time in our home. Everything he does you can see how much effort is put into perfection of even the smallest details. Rest assured, we will hire Affordable Remodels again for our next home upgrade whatever that may be!"

"I am an architect building my personal residence. Oakmont is great to work with! Joe is experienced in many areas. He has a great attitude and really works hard. He is constructing a number of features on the house, including the 1,000 SF covered deck. I highly recommend Oakmont."

"Excellent job!!!! We are very happy with the deck work performed by Empire. I would recommend his service to anyone who needs help with a small or large job. I interviewed several contractors, and Empire's��s overall knowledge with many things sold us. Two thumbs up."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

When considering finishing your basement, take into account a few pros and cons:

Pros

  • Can increase the value of your home

  • Separate space from the rest of the house 

  • Customize and personalize the basement to suit your needs and style

  • Increase the amount of living space in your home

Cons

  • May not regain enough value to cover the cost of finishing

  • Lack of natural light if it’s below ground level

  • Moisture or flooding can cause costly damage

  • Installing plumbing and electrical can be messy and costly

Physically, the most challenging part of finishing a basement is installing egress windows or doors when the space is below ground level. Mentally, the hardest part may be envisioning the project and planning around load-bearing and mechanical obstacles.

Some older homes have toilets in the basement to combat sewage backups. This type of toilet, also known as a Pittsburgh potty, acted as a safety valve over the incoming sewer line. If a line backed up, it would back up into the toilet because it was the lowest fixture in the home, keeping it out of sight and away from the finished areas of the house.

Basement toilets were also used by workers with messy jobs, like those who worked in coal mines or steel mills. This way, they could clean up and avoid tracking dirt through their home.

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.

Efficient appliance positioning, optimizing existing plumbing, and sourcing energy-efficient materials reduce financial impact and increase sustainability.
