"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

Common mistakes when finishing basement walls include neglecting proper insulation, insufficient moisture management, and poor ventilation. Not addressing these issues can lead to mold growth, water damage, and discomfort. Additionally, inadequate planning, improper framing, and rushing the project can result in subpar outcomes. 

It's essential to follow best practices, seek professional guidance if needed, and prioritize thoroughness and attention to detail.

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

Yes, you can install a summer kitchen or kitchenette in your basement. They serve similar purposes as outdoor kitchens, keeping the main floor of the house cool and providing another space to cook and congregate. Basement kitchens are also a worthwhile alternative for homeowners without much space in the backyard. They come with a few logistical questions to sort out, though, like ventilation and waterproofing.

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.

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.
