"the job took to long, was not properly cleaned up and I think the price was to high. It took 3 days to finish a 1 day job and caulking was left inside and all over my water hose and wall outside. It took over 2 hours to clean up and there is still dried up caulk inside the utility closet and the outside wall. The person doing the job could hardly walk said he had pain in his leg and said he could not bend down. He did not have any thing to clean up the mess ( rags, vacuum, etc ). There are globs of caulking in the utility closet and he could not sand all of it. This was a poor job overall and with the mess left I really feel there should be some kind of refund for this job.

Our business specializes in carpentry. We can handle any carpentry needs from replacing a door, building a new deck, or building an addition. With over 30 years, I have done just about everything in the construction field. Our company value is to fully understand what the customer wants. Then, work with them to offer the best product and service possible. Nobody wants to do something twice or not be happy with the final product.

"We are delighted with the work and experience we had with Turner Builders. From start to finish the communication was perfect and the attention to detail was beyond our expectations. Bob made sure that his crew delivered quality work and if at any time the work did not meet his expectations, he had them fix it. The work was completed in a timely manner and they worked around weather conditions to keep the process moving. Honestly we cannot say enough good about our experience. Highly recommend."

Locally owned and operated ,we pride our selves on doing quality work at fair prices ,with the upmost professionalism and dedication to making home owners dreams come to life ,all while staying efficient and budget friendly. Let’s get it started today ..

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Great Experience with Lightning Remodel We recently hired Lightning Remodel for a tile project, and they exceeded every expectation. What started as a straightforward tile job quickly revealed some incorrectly installed plumbing, and Buck went above and beyond to fix it so our project could stay on schedule. His professionalism, skill, and commitment to getting the job done right were evident every step of the way. Buck and his team tiled our bathroom, closet, and laundry room, & also installed hardwood flooring in our kitchen and butler’s pantry. The craftsmanship was exceptional across the board. They kept the job site clean, communicated clearly, arrived on time, and navigated every curveball our old house threw at him with patience and expertise. Working with Lightning Remodel was a pleasure. They will be our very first call for any future home projects. Highly recommend! ***Photos to come***"

Our company had it’s beginning January 1st of 2000 in Cincinnati, Ohio. We’ve completed countless residential projects since then, from many different suburbs along with the rebirth of the historic downtown area of Over the Rhine. We can include projects from Lebanon, Mason, Loveland, Indian Hill, Westchester, Montgomery, Oakley, Hyde Park, Mt. Lookout, Maderia, Milford, and others. Even down into Northern, Kentucky. Our hard work ethics and extreme attention to detail are just a few things that have made this company successful. We can’t forget too, our customer service is second to none! This sets us apart from the competition, and sets our customer’s minds at ease throughout all phases of their projects. We are ready to earn your business!

"Hogeland Construction was the best company that we worked with during the entire build. We began the build right when Covid hit. There were delays upon delays that were out of our locus of control due to Covid restrictions. These delays included in permiting, inspections, availability of materials etc. Covid turn everything upside down. However, Bryan Hogeland was able to adapt to the obstacles and never compromised on the quality of his work. We were impressed by his ability to pivot at a moment's notice to the unpredicted challenges the arose. Bryan's greatest characteristic is his thorough communication. He would even call at night in the middle of a torrential rain storm to make sure that there were no leaks. We can say that I really believed that he was as invested in this project as we were. It was a true partnership."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

It is generally more affordable to finish a basement than an attic, though it ultimately depends on how you plan to use the space. The average cost to finish a basement ranges from $7 to $23 per square foot, while attic renovation costs $30 to $60 per square foot. However, a simple attic conversion to a storage space will cost significantly less.

Envision the type of bar experience you'd like to create for your guests. For example:

  • Does your basement have enough finished space for bar stools or seating?

  • What type of additional lighting would set the tone for the room?

  • Are there basement windows or an HVAC system?

  • Do you need new plumbing in your basement for a proper wet bar?

  • Could you be happy with a built-in wall cabinet bar rather than a full-scale wet bar?

Yes, you’ll use a macerator pump to install a basement bathroom without breaking concrete. The purpose of breaking into concrete is to connect the drain pipes to the main sewer line. But a macerator pump will bypass this step and break up solids until they are soft enough to pass through a discharge pipe. That pipe will carry the waste to the sewage line.

Installing a bathroom in a basement isn’t a project for most homeowners. Many parts—plumbing, electricity, and carpentry—go into this project, each requiring expert-level knowledge and tools. One miscalculation can lead to very expensive repairs. Plus, some homeowner’s insurance might not pay for damages caused by a homeowner DIYing this project. You can protect yourself by allowing the pros to complete this job for you. 

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.
