Lemi-Duit is a team of experienced and highly skilled tradesmen and artisans. Each member of the team contributes a unique expertise to the whole. While we are still small enough to be personal and give individual attention to our clients, we offer the advantages of a larger company as a result of the diversity of our team. We feel that our old fashioned American dream of the small town contractor doing business with friends and neighbors sets us apart from the crowd. All of our work is overseen by our owner, Sam Gill, and is fully guaranteed to be to your satisfaction. We solicit your ideas, and strive to create a job plan that will deliver a finished product that will exceed your expectations, while staying within your established budget. Our mission is to develop ongoing relationships with our customers, and offer full spectrum maintenance services at an affordable, fair price, by working closely with homeowners to solve maintenance problems, and fulfill remodeling and renovation dreams in a climate of trust and confidence. We also try to convince our clients to go green whenever possible, as we want to eventually become a totally green company. Trust and quality are the most important factors in choosing a contractor. Once you’ve collected several bids, it’s time to start comparing them. When making your final decision, you’ll want to choose a contractor that not only provides the best bid in terms of money, but also one that you feel is right for the job. There are advantages to choosing the up and coming contractor who is building a reputation, gaining clients, and seeking referrals for potential clients. A newer contractor is often more conscientious and works harder in order to establish his reputation and develop a good client base. As contractors, we work hard to ensure that our bids are competitive, while at the same time being realistic when it comes to high quality materials and costs. There is a fine balance between a good bid and a bid that looks good on the surface, but does not cover the occasional unexpected expense that comes up during the job - and we take pride in achieving this balance. Dependability is key to the success of any construction project, and our reputation is based upon dependable service, attention to detail, and the responsibility of a reasonable and practical timeline. Our owner is always available to discuss any concerns you may have and resolve any issues that may arise. Lemi-Duit combines traditional values with modern methods to create an environment in which goals are accomplished in a timely and professional manner. Our motto is “From rooftop to ground and all around,” and no job is too small or large for our consideration. Depending upon the complexity of your needs, a written estimate can usually be delivered to you within 24-48 hours of our initial meeting. A follow up meeting to discuss the estimate and include anything that may have been overlooked at the first meeting can be scheduled at your convenience. We are licensed and fully insured for your protection.

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

The cost of finishing a basement is about $18,400 on average. As you can see, the framing portion of this project costs less, because you’re essentially just dealing with laying the foundation for a finished basement. The finishing portion of the project involves a lot more intricate work and design, as well as high-end materials.

Finishing a basement normally takes four to eight weeks, but the timeline depends on the size of your basement, your contractor's availability, and the extent of finishing work. Framing the basement will take three to five days, while adding electrical and rough-in plumbing can be another three to five days. Adding drywall can take five days, and floor installation can take two to three days. Final touches, like painting and adding trim, will take another week.

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.

A finished basement does not always count as square footage, though this varies by state regulations. You may live in an area that allows for below-grade spaces to be considered in a home's official square footage. In those cases, the basement must meet certain conditions, like having a functional egress and being a livable space with flooring, finished walls, and temperature control. Your local assessor can confirm your area's policies regarding basement square footage.

Assuming you are going for a full remodel for an average-sized basement with a reputable contractor, the process can take up to two weeks or more. Remember that basements have many stairs and often difficult access—it’s not like working in the entryway. The shuttling of materials, increased need for ventilation and safety precautions, and making sure everything can be removed through a doorway all increase time and cost.
