"Jerry remodeled my basement last year before I sold my house. Also painted living room and dining room and replaced light fixture. He and his partner were courteous, hard-working and neat. They did a great job. My house sold in 3 days-I think partly because of the good work Jerry did."

"unfortunately, I drove through my garage. don't ask, an embarrassing accident. I thought the garage would be a teardown, but they were able to put it back together ,and get my car out for me. All the repairs were done quickly and expertly. I was very thankful that I found them. They have a Better Business rating of A+ and I would certainly use them again for any remodeling or projects for my home."

"We used Chi Renovation to do a ground up kitchen remodel in our home.  The project went smoothly and Chi Renovation did a great job.  Larry came out and gave us a quote and was the only person to come out and say they could do exactly what we wanted with the budget we had in mind.  Other companies came out and told us it would be double what we were expecting and wouldnt work up any sort of design plan without us shelling out thousands of dollars to retain their services..  I was a little worried that Larry may have under quoted us or would try raising the cost later, but no such case....Chi Renovation did the job for exactly what was quoted, within the time frame they quoted, and it looks beautiful.  Larry is extremely trustworthy and did everything he said he was going to do.  When we did our final walk thru and pointed out some scratches on the new cabinets, he was quick to replace them at no charge, without an argument.  He went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and the project was completed to our satisfaction.  All in all, I totally recommend Chi Renovation.  They do great work, they are extremely trustworthy, their prices are reasonable, and they will guide you through every step in the process.  When we re-do our bathroom next year, I will use them again.

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Any bowing in a basement wall indicates a problem that needs to be addressed by a professional. If your basement wall bows more than 1 inch, it's time for an inspection. Generally, a wall can bow up to 30% of its thickness (around 2.5 inches for an 8-inch-thick wall) before it becomes an urgent situation. Bowing of 2 to 4 inches is more straightforward to fix than bowing of more than 4 inches, which will require significant repairs. If the bowing is more than 6 inches, the wall will likely need to be replaced. The sooner you address the problem, the easier and less expensive the repair will be.

The average cost to remodel a basement is between $12,100 and $33,400. Depending on the project's complexity, the price can be as low as $3,500 or exceed $50,200. For a simple project like adding a home office, you might spend between $500 and $3,000. However, a more extensive project, such as adding a bathroom, can range from $6,600 to $16,500. The final cost is influenced by factors like the basement's size and condition, the type of remodel, material choices, your location, and accessibility. For an accurate price, it's best to consult with a basement remodeling team.

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.

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.

The time it takes to finish or remodel a basement can vary significantly, ranging from a few weeks to several months or even up to a year. On average, the construction phase can take four to eight weeks, but the total project time can extend to three or four months when including planning and permits. The timeline depends on several factors, including the basement's size, design complexity, the scope of the work, and your contractor's availability. A more detailed breakdown for an average-sized basement might include: framing (3-5 days), electrical and rough-in plumbing (3-5 days), drywall installation (5 days), flooring (2-3 days), and final touches like painting and trim (about a week). If preliminary work like installing a waterproofing system or addressing structural issues is needed, the timeline could extend to six to twelve months. Factors like difficult access, material transport, and ventilation needs can also add to the project's duration.
