"Mr.Harper did an excellent job. He was very prompt seeing us within a day and had the job finished by the end of the week. He and his crew were very trustworthy and reputable, I would strongly recommend them. He has the rest of the work here on this remodel.

"Richard was extremely professional and honored the quality of workmanship! My sun exposed foyer flooring is now resistant to sun fading and water damage. Doug measured carefully and transformed my general foyer appearance with the diagonal design. The edges, trim work and baseboard paint jobs were impeccable! I plan to use this company for bathroom remodeling.

"First of all let me say I was fearful of dealing with contractors being a women, but Royal Renovations was wonderful.  I am so pleased with the entire job.  These guys were courteous, on time and did the job like they were remodeling their own home.
David May's first quote for us was well above our budget for this project but that did not deter him.  He worked with us until we had the right package that fit our budget and gave us 2 beautiful bathrooms that we are so proud of.  
The crew, Chad and Wayne, were absolutely wonderful.  They laid out drapes to cover the floor in our house from the project area all the way to the front door.  We never had a mess in our house.  We were especially thankful that throughout the entire project we always had 1 fully functional bathroom.  These guys even watched out for our 2 house cats so that did not get out or caught up in the work area.  They waited until all the materials were in before starting and because of that were able to complete both bathrooms in just 7 work days. 
I work in Customer Service and we pride ourselves on exceeding customer expectations.  I'm very happy to say that Royal Renovations definitely exceeded mine.  I would definitely use Royal Renovations again in the future and highly recommend them for any project you might have.

"Amanda was really very good!  At first I was very skeptical, thinking why did I pay money to just speak with someone on the phone about my kitchen remodel project... but after just a few minutes of her addressing some of the issues/questions I emailed to her earlier, I knew it was worth it.  It was very clear that she knew her business and she gave me several ideas that I had not even thought about.  I told her that I would definitely recommend her to friends and I will very likely use her again myself for my next home project!

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is possible to turn a regular basement into a walkout basement. Doing so involves excavating the land around at least one side of your basement foundation, installing retaining walls to create a permanent below-grade area outside your home, and then cutting into the foundation to install an exterior door that leads out to the new space. This is an expensive and time-consuming project, but it can add a lot of value and utility to your home.

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. 

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.

Some older homes have toilets in the basement to combat sewage backups. This type of toilet, also known as a Pittsburgh potty, acted as a safety valve over the incoming sewer line. If a line backed up, it would back up into the toilet because it was the lowest fixture in the home, keeping it out of sight and away from the finished areas of the house.

Basement toilets were also used by workers with messy jobs, like those who worked in coal mines or steel mills. This way, they could clean up and avoid tracking dirt through their home.

Adding a bathroom to your basement can increase your home value since homes with multiple bathrooms sell for more. The return on investment (ROI) for a basement bathroom is 50% to 75%. The actual return varies with your home and location. Adding a half bath to your home increases the value by 2.9% while finishing a basement increases the home value by 6.6%.
