"We are new to the Champaign area and our house needs extensive renovations. What extreme good luck for us that we found Nate's Painting. Nate and his staff are absolutely professional, responsive, and do high quality work at a very fair price. To date they have painted our entire home, removed an unsightly drop ceiling and replaced it with drywall, totally remodeled a bathroom, and completed several smaller jobs. Josh has done much of the work and as well as being a most conscientious and talented professional , he is just the nicest guy. We will continue to use Nate and his crew until all our renovations are complete."

""I recently hired Robinson General Construction for a complete bathroom remodel, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From the initial consultation to the final walk-through, Cole and Gavin were very professional, courteous, and highly skilled. They listened to my ideas, offered helpful suggestions, and stayed within my budget. The quality of their workmanship is outstanding, and they paid attention to every detail. My new bathroom is beautiful and functional, and it's exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend Robinson General Construction to anyone looking to remodel their bathroom.""

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.

Walkout basements cost more than other kinds of basements, and can also increase your risk of leaks as well as a loss of insulation, leading to higher heating and cooling costs. Improperly installed walkout basements may lead to structural issues with your foundation, so ensure you’re working with a contractor who has extensive experience with this kind of basement.

For most basement remodels, you’ll want to hire a general contractor. This is for a number of reasons, but the main two are that general contractors have dedicated teams they are comfortable with, and hiring one means you only have to deal with one pro. You may also get a better project quote since they can lump all their work and subcontracting into a single quote. 

In addition to overseeing new home builds, construction managers work on large renovations and major remodels. For example, they may work with designers and oversee the construction of a finished basement, kitchen renovation, or a home addition. They may also oversee large-scale remodels, such as the update of a historic home. Construction managers step into small projects for more specific assistance, such as building budgets and compiling the team.

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.
