"We couldn’t be more thrilled with our experience working with R&B Remodeling on our deck project. From the very first consultation to the final walkthrough, Grant, the owner, was professional, communicative, and incredibly easy to work with. What really set them apart was their willingness to collaborate. As the project evolved, we had a few design changes and new ideas, and Grant was flexible and accommodating every step of the way. He listened carefully, offered smart suggestions, and made sure we were happy with the result. Even after the deck was complete, Grant followed up to ensure everything met our expectations and that we were completely satisfied. That kind of dedication is rare and speaks volumes about their commitment to customer service. If you're considering a deck remodel, we wholeheartedly recommend R&B Remodeling. They’re reliable, budget-friendly, and truly care about delivering a beautiful, lasting result."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

Key trends include home gyms, theatre rooms, additional rooms (bedroom/office), and more, with personalized styles reflecting individual preferences.

The most challenging part of finishing a basement is addressing moisture control. Basement waterproofing is an essential task that requires a professional’s skills and knowledge. If you don’t properly waterproof your finished basement, it’ll be vulnerable to dampness, water damage, and mold growth. Ensuring proper insulation and ventilation to combat these issues while meeting building codes adds complexity to your remodeling project.

Walkout basements are not generally included in a home’s square footage, although they may be if they meet certain conditions that depend on local regulations. A finished walkout basement used as a living space may be counted toward square footage in some locations as long as all codes for livable space are met.

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.
