"Mighty Basement and Bath did a magnificent job building out our basement. Scot was very professional and extremely knowledgeable of the work that needed to be completed. Scot took our ideas for the basement build and made them a reality. Would highly recommend using Might Basement and Bath for remodeling projects."

"We had an excellent experience working with Robert Anthony from start to finish. They were professional, responsive, and incredibly detail-oriented throughout our kitchen remodel. His team completed our renovation on time, kept the workspace clean, and communicated with us every step of the way. The quality of the craftsmanship exceeded our expectations, and you can truly tell they take pride in their work. They transformed our kitcjen beautifully and made the entire process smooth and stress-free for my family. We are beyond happy with our kitchen and we couldn’t recommended him more."

"I am in a new construction house and had a water leak in my basement.  The representative came out to evaluate the situation, checked the sump pit, the drain tiles and the exterior for cracks. Turns out the problem had to do with flashing and caulking.  The builder has ultimately fixed the problem.  The representative who came out was very responsive, prompt, courteous and accommodating spending time investigating the possible source of the leak.   While we did not use their services, I was impressed by the thoroughness and effort.   I would highly recommend you have Reliable Basement Services, LLC look at your issue and recommend a solution. Should I ever have need of their service I would not hesitate to use them.

"I would have liked to give this company an A, but they had just started the business (I believe I was one of their first customers), and they encountered problems with the unusual demands of atypical door sizes for a very old house. In addition, the owner did not always respond to calls or concerns. Fortunately for him, his manager was very responsive, both in communicating and making certain the challenges were ultimately addressed."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Egress windows or doors are required in finished basements to meet safety and building codes. If your basement is unfinished and used as a storage space, egress windows are not required, but anything considered a habitable space must have an additional point of egress in addition to the stairs.

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.

Home improvements that increase value offer a high return on investment (ROI) and can enhance your quality of life. Upgrades to your home’s curb appeal often add the most value, with garage door replacement having one of the best ROIs at 93%. Other high-value exterior projects include replacing your front door, upgrading siding and roofing, installing a stone veneer, adding new windows, and landscaping. For interior renovations, a fresh coat of paint provides an excellent ROI. Major projects like a kitchen remodel or upgrading appliances and HVAC systems also add significant value, as potential buyers appreciate the peace of mind that new equipment provides.

You should always use high-quality lumber for your framing in order to ensure it will last the test of time and resist moisture. Use 2-foot by 4-foot lumber that is pressure-treated for your framing.

When choosing materials for finishing basement walls, consider factors such as moisture resistance, durability, and fire resistance. Opt for materials specifically designed for basement environments, like moisture-resistant drywall or cement board. Insulation with vapor barriers can help regulate temperature and prevent condensation. Consider using mold-resistant paints or coatings. 

Research and consult with experts to select materials that are suitable for your specific basement conditions and intended use. Prioritize quality and compatibility to achieve long-lasting and aesthetically pleasing results.
