"Greg and his team(s) completed a multiphase remodeling for me at my home in New Albany including adding a screened back porch, master bath improvement, new windows, new guttering, adding a hearth to my fireplace, repairing a leak at the chimney, adding built-ins around my dining room windows and more. He is a person of integrity, professional, and personable. I would recommend him without reservation."

"Christopher was absolutely great! I called him on a Sunday because our utility pump in our crawl space ?died?, and water was pooling on the basement floor. Six hours after my original call, he had the crawl space drained and had installed a new utility pump. He was efficient and friendly and did a really, really good job! I highly recommend him. Thank you, Christopher, for a job well done!"

"The work progressed as expected. Plans were produced and bill of materials were discussed and agreed upon. I purchased materials and Robbie provided labor and equipment to perform the work. It turned out GREAT! I was amazed at how much room there was inside! He built a work bench along one wall, installed shelving for storage and put in a double door to accommodate large items to move in and out (lawnmower, etc.) The loft doubled the floor space for storage and I was able to empty the pile of stuff from the garage and attic into the loft area. The wife can finally get her car back in the garage! Robbie does quality work and won't walk away until he's sure the customer is happy with the work.

I will definitely use him in the future.

"My husband and I were finally ready to take the step of building a garage but didn’t know who to use so submitted a request. Within minutes Scott called to schedule an appointment with us. He came to our home and made sure to have a full understanding of our vision and answered all the questions we had. To our surprise he presented pricing to us in that first visit! We agreed to move forward and within weeks the crew broke ground and began the build, Scott was readily available to assist in anything we needed through the entire process. We still find ourselves shocked at the quality of work performed and in such a timely manner. We love having a safe place for our cars and some storage and would highly recommend Americas Best!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

You technically can paint wires in a basement ceiling, but there are several important safety and code considerations. It's safe to paint non-metallic sheathed cable as long as the labeling remains visible. You can also paint low-voltage wires and conduit and junction boxes to help them blend into your basement. 

However, you should not paint damaged or deteriorated wiring is a fire hazard because it poses a fire hazard. The same goes for painting over high-heat wires that connect to heat-generating appliances or systems. Be sure to avoid painting multiple coats onto any wires, as that traps heat and poses fire risks.

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.

It’s less expensive to finish your basement than it is to build an addition to your home. The average cost to refinish a basement is $32,000 (between $7 and $23 per square foot) while building an addition to your home costs $50,325 ($80 to $210 per square foot). Depending on the size of your basement and other factors, like moving plumbing and electrical, refinishing a basement is a more cost-effective option in most cases.

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.

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.
