34 This is a very honest person! He told me that the problem was not in the basement wall, but was with the chimney cap. He doesn't do that work and so didn't make any money from me. He could've tried to sell me something I didn't need, but he's honest, a Five Star human being.
Repairman arrived same day but needed more parts, so returned next day and completed the repair. Fast, friendly service.
They did 3 jobs for me. They fix a bathroom sink drain, they repaired leaking kitchen faucet, and they replaced a garbage disposal. They did a great job, will also recommend them to other members.
Great and thorough job! We put in an offer on this home and needed some expert advice on the condition of the home since it was older. Jim was very good at looking at every area and was able to point out subtle issues that we had overlooked when we looked at the house initially. Jim was able...
poor work in the beginning and now we are paying the price. Towne came out after a storm and replaced our roof. We were unaware that the vents and stove pipe boot were not installed properly and were leaking into our interior ceilings. Just recently we have had some torrential rains and the...
I was impressed with Expert from the first conversation with Nicole...polite, friendly, helpful. She scheduled Shane to come out within a few days. Impressed with Shane and his "we will find and fix the problem and guarantee the work" attitude and the timeliness of being worked into the...
Expert Roofing & Basement WaterproofingFirst of all, the whole process took about twice as long as I was told it would and then cost twice as much. It all seemed ok on the day of service, but just a few weeks after, my kitchen faucet began to leak and I called them out to fix it. They did but then wanted an additional $300 after...
Mr. Handyman of Northern St. Joseph and Elkhart CountiesDiscouraged. After our basement flooded, State Farm referred us to ServiceMaster. Upon contact, they approximated the cost for cleaning to be around $500, considering we had no carpet. When they got here, the first estimate went up to $3000!! Keep in mind my husband had already emptied...
I called Randall & Sons on Monday evening because I had a leaking pipe in the basement. I figured out how to turn off the water, so I didn't need an emergency visit, but I definitely needed to schedule a plumber for the next day. The person I spoke with told me he had a meeting at 9:30, and...

"Shortly after I had purchased my home, I had discovered damage done to my foundation. The first contractor I contacted was pushy and wanted me to sign a contract on the spot. I wanted a second opinion and contacted Yoder Home Services. The owner came to my home, did a full inspection of my property and gave a thorough explanation of the work that needed to be done. His quote was $5000 less than the first contractor. The owner and his team were very kind and completed the job as promised. I have noticed a huge improvement of overall air quality in my home since the repairs have been done. I would recommend Yoder Home Services to anyone needing this type of work!"

EverDry Waterproofing specializes in basement waterproofing and foundation repair. Our patented, safe and 100% effective waterproofing method can be used on foundations consisting of poured concrete, block, brick, stone, and red clay tile. We also work on crawl spaces and slabs. If your basement/foundation is wet or has water, dampness, cracks, seepage or other signs of moisture, please call us for a free foundation inspection.
"We were very unhappy with EverDry. They did not explain clearly what they were going to do and cut through my carpet in several places, so I had to hire another pro fix it and to replace the baseboards that EverDry removed. EverDry gave me a small rebate, which covered the cost of repair, but I thought they should have paid for a new carpet to be installed, given the major damage they did. They were extremely expensive and I strongly recommended that others be extremely cautious about hiring them, making sure you understand exactly what they will do to your house to complete the job. "

The cost to finish a basement is $18,400 for the average homeowner. However, this cost could be as little as $2,800 or as much as $34,500, depending on the basement size and the materials needed. If your basement is already outfitted with electrical and plumbing, expect the cost to fall on the lower end.
For example, the drywall cost for this project averages around $1,750, but other features, like hiring a plumber, cost between $45 and $200 per hour.
The cost to remodel a basement is between $12,100 and $33,400 for the average homeowner. The price you pay can be as little as $3,500 or as much as $50,200, depending on the size and condition of your basement and the type of remodel you're doing.
If you're doing a simple project like adding a home office to your basement, you can expect to pay anywhere from $500 to $3,000. However, if you're adding a bathroom, which is an extensive project, you can expect to pay between $6,600 to $16,500.
Damp proofing and waterproofing are both methods to help keep your basement dry. Damp proofing keeps soil moisture from entering your basement, which is helpful since your basement is underground. Waterproofing, however, keeps both soil moisture and liquid water out of the basement, which is essential, especially if you live in a wet environment. Because it’s more protective, waterproofing typically costs more than damp proofing.
Although homeowners often use the terms basement remodeling and basement finishing interchangeably, they are quite different terms.
Finishing a basement is the process of taking a basement space that is not habitable and adding elements to make it usable. This includes adding plumbing, flooring, and insulation.
Remodeling a basement means taking an already existing finished basement and changing it, often by adding or removing walls, adding plumbing, or changing the existing flooring.
The cost of basement waterproofing is $4,950 for the average homeowner. However, you could end up paying between $600 and $14,000, depending on factors like basement size, waterproofing method, and the region you live in.
If you live in an area with heavy rainfall, you might be paying more for waterproofing than if you lived somewhere drier since waterproofing contractors would be in high demand. Likewise, a 500-foot basement costs between $2,500 and $5,000 to waterproof, but that price rises significantly for a larger basement.
