"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."

"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 FAQs, answered by experts

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. 

Physically, the most challenging part of finishing a basement is installing egress windows or doors when the space is below ground level. Mentally, the hardest part may be envisioning the project and planning around load-bearing and mechanical obstacles.

A finished basement does not always count as square footage, as this varies by state regulations. In areas that allow below-grade spaces to be included in a home's official square footage, the basement must typically meet certain conditions. These conditions often include having a functional egress and being a livable space with flooring, finished walls, and temperature control. To be certain, contact your local assessor to confirm your area's specific policies regarding basement square footage.

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.

Yes, adding a walkout basement will usually bump up your property value. Most homeowners prefer walk out basements because the exposed wall that’s level with the ground provides more utility via a ground-level exterior entrance, and they can fit full windows, which adds natural light and ventilation to the basement area. The only exception might be in areas prone to tornadoes, as walkout basements aren’t as safe as regular basements during a tornado, particularly if they include large windows or glass sliding doors.
