"Working with Mike was a great experience. He and his team repaired termite damage to half my home. From start to finish, he was very responsive, making a very stressful home repair much easier than I anticipated. The team worked quickly and ended up finishing the job quicker than the original timeline proposal, which was a huge plus, and photo updates of the house were sent to me daily. The final finishing touch was a cleaning service that came through to help get my house truly back to it's original state!"

"Jeff has done multiple repairs and installs in my home over the years. Originally he wasn't available to do this install, but when I had another contractor reschedule multiple times and not show, I jumped when Jeff said he was available. Jeff is my first call. The microwave was basic, I just helped Jeff lift it out of the box and he did the rest. He also fixed a door that was coming off the hinges and a door that wasn't closing correctly.

Trust DJ Sutton Construction LLC for reliable, professional concrete solutions that enhance your property's value and functionality!

"When we first moved into our home, our backyard was sad and pitiful. The "steps" attached to our back patio door were probably unsafe at best. We contacted DJ Construction thinking we wanted a deck built. Darwin came over and consulted with us and suggested possibly pouring a stamped concrete patio instead. (We NEVER even considered that before) He showed us some ideas and how he could make it work for us and we loved the idea! We also had dogs and it allowed them to keep the space they needed to run around our yard still without a deck taking up space they couldn't be on. We couldn't be more pleased with the results! Our backyard is now our oasis! The concrete patio has given us MORE living and useful space than any deck would have. People are shocked to find out what's behind our gates. Lol The bonus is we know we have something beautiful and unique to our neighborhood. So when it came time to have a part of our driveway repaired and some front of the house beautification work done to our walkway, there was no doubt who we were going to call. Again DJ Sutton did not disappoint. Darwin is officially our go-to person for any work we need done from this point on."

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

Renovations that add functionality or more comfortable floor space generally add the most value when remodeling your home. Attic or basement finishing can add floor space without altering the home's structure, saving you renovation money while adding valuable space. Smaller improvements, such as installing smart-home components or replacing entry doors and windows, also experience high ROIs. 

If you have the woodworking experience to build a bar from scratch and you have the time, DIYing the work is a no-brainer and can save a few thousand dollars. However, if you’re looking to include a sink, additional lighting fixtures, or high-end bar tops and cabinets, it’s usually a better idea to call in a pro. It will cost more, but the finished product will likely be worth it.

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.

When considering finishing your basement, take into account a few pros and cons:

Pros

  • Can increase the value of your home

  • Separate space from the rest of the house 

  • Customize and personalize the basement to suit your needs and style

  • Increase the amount of living space in your home

Cons

  • May not regain enough value to cover the cost of finishing

  • Lack of natural light if it’s below ground level

  • Moisture or flooding can cause costly damage

  • Installing plumbing and electrical can be messy and costly

It costs an average of $32,000 to finish a basement, and most projects total between $15,000 and $75,000. If you just want to make the space look a bit nicer and don’t need to convert the basement to legal living space, you could spend as little as $3,000 to install drywall and flooring. On the other end of the spectrum, your costs could rise to $100,000 if you want to make structural changes to the space, repair existing structural damage, waterproof your basement, or install a kitchen and bathroom along with living space.
