"We couldn’t be more thrilled with our experience working with R&B Remodeling on our deck project. From the very first consultation to the final walkthrough, Grant, the owner, was professional, communicative, and incredibly easy to work with. What really set them apart was their willingness to collaborate. As the project evolved, we had a few design changes and new ideas, and Grant was flexible and accommodating every step of the way. He listened carefully, offered smart suggestions, and made sure we were happy with the result. Even after the deck was complete, Grant followed up to ensure everything met our expectations and that we were completely satisfied. That kind of dedication is rare and speaks volumes about their commitment to customer service. If you're considering a deck remodel, we wholeheartedly recommend R&B Remodeling. They’re reliable, budget-friendly, and truly care about delivering a beautiful, lasting result."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

Common mistakes when finishing basement walls include neglecting proper insulation, insufficient moisture management, and poor ventilation. Not addressing these issues can lead to mold growth, water damage, and discomfort. Additionally, inadequate planning, improper framing, and rushing the project can result in subpar outcomes. 

It's essential to follow best practices, seek professional guidance if needed, and prioritize thoroughness and attention to detail.

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.

Making a window in a basement larger costs an average of $4,200. You’ll need to pay an average of $550 to have a structural engineer plan the project, $500 to $1,500 for the installation labor, and an average of $2,200 for the excavation and window well installation. The remainder will go toward pulling permits, installing trim, and repairing drywall on the interior.

It may not come as a surprise that the kitchen is the most expensive room in the house to renovate. This is due to the expensive appliances like the range, hood, and fridge, but also because the bones of the room—like electrical and plumbing—are expensive to move or replace. While there are ways to renovate a kitchen on a budget, it will always carry a hefty price tag, even if you cut some corners.
