My other half and I have both been working in construction / home repair for the better part of 10 plus years separately and both decided it was time to work for ourselves. We are capable of fixing and installing potentially all of your wildest dreams. We do anything from interior and exterior painting, repair or install drywall, replace flooring, refinish cabinets or any other furniture you have that needs some updating. We also offer full cleaning services if you’re sick of doing your own chores and want someone else to do them for you. We are the ultimate dynamic duo because we’re extremely efficient, honest, and just downright talented. You won’t be spending insane amounts of money on labor from multiple people who don’t know what they’re doing. You’re paying for the quality of your home, your family’s well being, and we plan on keeping it that way. If you can dream it, we can make it happen. And if we can’t, we’ll help you get in contact with someone who can. We both love what we do, and we can assure you that you’re gonna love it too.

"I hired them to remove the old vanity and install a new one. After they completed the job, I had to hire a plumber to fix it (same day). There was a P-trap installed backwards, a pipe was too long, and there was no gasket on one pipe. owner will not respond. Also, we had a deal that they could take the current knobs in the bathroom off the cabinets if they would replace them. They took the knobs, but did not replace. So essentially, they stole the knobs. The clean up after the job was poor, there was a lack of professionalism, and they did not show up when they said they were going to on multiple occasions. It took six days to get the vanity replaced. Beware."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Finishing a basement normally takes four to eight weeks, but the timeline depends on the size of your basement, your contractor's availability, and the extent of finishing work. Framing the basement will take three to five days, while adding electrical and rough-in plumbing can be another three to five days. Adding drywall can take five days, and floor installation can take two to three days. Final touches, like painting and adding trim, will take another week.

Save money on your basement finishing project by making cost-effective decisions such as minimizing structural changes and avoiding costly construction revisions. DIY simpler tasks such as painting or basic cleanup to reduce labor costs. You can also opt for energy-efficient fixtures and materials that may qualify for rebates or tax incentives.

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.

Yes, you can add a kitchenette to a basement. However, you’ll have to consider the costs associated with basement kitchenettes. If you’re starting from scratch in an unfinished basement, you’ll need to account for brand-new plumbing, electrical, flooring, and more in addition to the cost of the kitchenette. If you’re putting a kitchenette in an already finished basement equipped with plumbing and electrical, you’ll save considerable money.

Permits may be required for major repairs, structural work, or electrical and plumbing restoration after a flood. Check with your local building department to determine permit requirements and associated fees for your flooded basement cleanup project. Obtaining the correct permits helps ensure work is done safely and up to code.
