"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."

Customers say: Super punctual

"We recently used Angelo at AP Builders to finish our basement.  We must say that we were beyond impressed with his ideas, craftsmanship, professionalism and overall project management.  We sought out a few different bids for our basement but were most impressed with his blueprints.  Rose, who also works at AP Builders, was extremely prompt with all communication regarding the proposal and follow up.  Angelo manages his projects like a well oiled machine.  The project moved along smooth as silk and continually ahead of schedule.  Every day there was so much completed and Angelo was present each and every day to make sure every detail was perfect.  We had some minor changes in the blueprints that we wanted done at the beginning and those were done immediately and without any push back to work that was already completed.  His communication each day about progress and our thoughts, suggestions and ideas were listened to with a keen ear.  The house was always kept clean both upstairs where the traffic would come in each day and downstairs in the work area.  Each day it was cleaned up.  Their pricing was very reasonable - and their work was very thorough.  Rose was very quick with all correspondence via email and telephone.  Everything was very well documented and accurate for back end paperwork.  We are in love with our new space that Angelo has created for us and imagine spending many, many years to come enjoying our new living space.  We would recommend Angelo, Rose and AP Builders to anyone looking to have the most interactive, professional, detail-oriented, high quality job done.  We can't say enough about how happy we are to have chosen AP Builders for our project!

Basement Remodel FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Basements with persistent moisture problems or flooding shouldn’t be finished until the moisture issues have been fixed. In addition, if your foundation is cracked, you have unmitigated radon levels, or you have asbestos or lead pipes, remediate the underlying problem before finishing your basement. Turning a basement into living space before fixing these issues can lead to serious health risks or structural damage. 

Yes, barndominiums can have basements. Barndominiums are typically built over concrete slabs, so barndo basements are not very common. However, it is possible to include a basement in a barndominium blueprint as long as you’re building completely from scratch. Barndos can have the same types of basements as traditional homes, including full or walk-out basements.

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.

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.
