"The remodel went great. Joe and his crew were friendly and prompt. They did the work in a timely fashion and were very good at communicating about the project. They did an amazing job transforming our bathroom. They replaced a vanity, walls, put in a tub and tiled. They also laid vinyl flooring and installed lights. We were impressed and thrilled with how quickly they worked and with the finished project. We would hire them again for another renovation. Please check them out."

"I purchased an old home that needed extensive work, particularly flooring. Two rooms downstairs and the entire upstairs needed all new floors, some with remediation of sub surfaces. All the work was done beautifully, on time, and on budget."

"I want to start by saying I rarely write reviews. In this case, I definitely wanted to make an exception. I cannot say enough good things about the experience we have had so far with Troy and his entire crew. We had an idea of what we wanted to do but was not sure exactly how much of that was realistic, especially considering we were trying to stay within our budget. Over the course of the project, I threw them plenty of curveballs with changes along the way. Not once was I told it could not be done. At times there was going to be an added cost but that was expected, explained upfront, and always more than fair. He also made sure to point out if there was a smarter more economical way to accomplish the same thing we were going for. It was incredibly exciting to see how much they accomplished in a days work. We could not wait to get home after work to see the progress and we were never disappointed. Communication was tremendous. I was always kept informed about when they would be there and what to expect timing-wise. The project moved fast. Much faster than we anticipated and that was greatly appreciated since we were living in the basement waiting for the project to get to the point we could move upstairs. They completely remodeled the kitchen, took out a couple of walls, installed the wood flooring throughout the main level, painted the walls, ceiling and baseboards, moved light switches, changed out and moved some can lighting, installed new light fixtures, refaced the fireplace, installed new stair railing and stairs and much more that I cannot even remember. In other words they can do it all. Our current project is almost complete. Perhaps the best recommendation we can make is that we are actually looking forward to the next project! We had such a good experience with Troy, Greg and his crew that we are now planning on remodeling the bathrooms too. There is also no question on who we will use. I will try to put up some pictures so everyone can see their excellent work. I only wish I had thought to take some *before* pictures so you could see the drastic changes."

"Wow, World Painting does outstanding work.
I had a ton of drywall repairs that needed to be done.
They sent two nice folks out.  They arrived a few minutes early and went straight to work.  They cleaned up after themselves.
The next day the returned, again on time, and sanded the areas they'd fixed out.   They cleaned up after themselves again.
They worked very efficiently and they knew what they were doing.  
I highly recommend World Painting.  Good people, great work, more than reasonable price.

Basement Remodel FAQs, answered by experts

Although it’s not required, air ventilation in a finished basement can help improve the air quality, prevent moisture and mold issues, keep musty odors away, and also maintain the air quality throughout the rest of your home. Proper ventilation will help maintain the value of your investment in finishing your basement. Try basement ventilation methods like installing vents or a dehumidifier for best results.

You should plan on waiting at least a year and ideally two to three years after construction before finishing your basement. This will give the foundation time to settle in response to the weight of your home and the expansion of the surrounding soil. You can then repair your foundation and seal any cracks as needed before finishing it to reduce your risk of future leaks or other issues.

The best type of basement ventilation system depends on your budget, the moisture in your basement’s air, and the types of windows you have down there. You should consider all of these factors when choosing a ventilation system. However, the most effective method for basement ventilation is an energy recovery ventilator (ERV) or a whole-house ventilation system, which preheats or precools incoming air from the outside while also managing water vapor.

If you’re not sure which method of raising the ceiling is best for you, here are a couple of considerations to help you make that decision. A professional ceiling company will be able to help you determine the best option for your home.

  • How long you are planning to live there: although raising the basement ceiling will increase the value of your home, if you’re planning to sell the house, then go for raising the house.

  • The condition of the foundation: to lower the floors, your foundation has to be intact whereas raising the house will allow you to restore the damaged foundation.

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.
