"We had an outstanding experience with Owens Corning Basement Remodeling from start to finish. The entire team was phenomenal—professional, communicative, and truly dedicated to delivering high-quality work. One thing that really stood out was how quickly they got started. There was no unnecessary waiting, and they stayed on schedule the entire time, which made the whole process smooth and stress-free. A special shoutout to Carlos and Luis, who worked tirelessly on our basement. Their craftsmanship, attention to detail, and strong work ethic were obvious every single day. They took great pride in their work, and it absolutely shows in the finished result. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. If you’re considering a basement remodel, I highly recommend Owens Corning—they exceeded our expectations in every way!"

"Everything went well.? Bob and his crew are true professionals.? I had a few ideas about how I wanted the basement to look but wasn't sure? how it could be done in a relatively small space.? I live in a condo/townhouse and only wanted half the basement finished.? Bob was very helpful with his design ideas and I was totally impressed with the results.? He exceeded my expectations by finishing the task on time and maybe a few days early.? He is very upfront with costs, expectations, and time management.? He frequently updated me with his teams productivity and wanted my input regarding such.? The results are fabulous!? My friends have complimented the fact that I still have plenty of "storage space" in the unfinished part of my basement and a beautiful room in the other.? This room consists of a reading nook with under-the-bench storage and above shelving; a small office area; and a room for watching t.v. and entertaining.? I chose to do the painting myself...Not an easy task but Bob was there to answer my questions about that as well.? Once the carpeting is in I will have beautiful pictures to share with family and friends.? I couldn't be happier and will definitely call this company for my bathroom and kitchen in the future."

"We had a great experience with the Lux Renovations and Owens Corning team. The whole process was very easy from designing the space, selecting colors, and having a contract manager who organized the entire basement remodel including all the trades and inspections. We were sold on the Owens Corning materials for the basement and that they were engineered specifically for a basement space. Would highly recommend this team for your basement remodel needs."

"John did an amazing job putting together our vision and assembling the team to complete or kitchen and master bath renovation. This is the 3rd project we have worked with him and we keep coming back due to his great craftsmanship, knowledge, attention to detail and amazing communication. This last part was especially important as our project started during the pandemic. John worked around delays in supply chains to help us achieve our goals without compromising on finishes nor blowing up our budget. He helped troubleshoot several issues that arose as with any remodel. Kim, his wife, is also a great resource and was always communicating with us regarding the schedule and timing of work which is so key. If you are thinking of any type of remodel or work around your home, Lancaster Home Remodeling is the first and only call you should make."

"When we started our plan of remodeling, the first thing we did was the complete roof replacement including kitchen vent & duct pipe installation to the roof, and new installation of attic ventilation. MMP did not only completed it just as agreed but also very efficiently. The crews were friendly, professional, and careful. The jobs were carefully managed and implemented effectively. I was impressed by Matt, who is the manager, and he does an outstanding job in managing the crews and the progress of the situation, and the communication was clear and always to the point. We then moved to initiate a search for a contractor of two bathrooms remodeling after completing the roof and attic vent, MMP was one of the many candidates. Matt has had not only the best idea and proposals but also shown an impressive & professional sense of evaluating the project accurately, including the possible structural modification as well as a competitive estimate of the cost of the build. His proposal included a rebuild of a wall of the bathroom to expand another one adjacent to it. Matt accepted to use my schematic design image (made with a software tool) and a spreadsheet list of the fixtures that I created - as many as fifty items including TOTO, Grohe, American Standard, Panasonic, and IKEA - to start the job (later changed some of them due to local plumbing code compliance) After beginning the bathroom remodel project, Matt shared what jobs will be done with us timely and efficiently via text so that we feel comfortable enough in knowing what is going on while living in the house of dust & noise from remodeling. The crews, Zen and Mark, were very courteous, extensively experienced, reliable, and friendly with excellent communication, sometimes with songs of 80s rock music. They ask me when more precise specifications are needed and notified me when they feel advance notifications are required. When a change is necessary due to inspection, they informed me and clarified what and why. I have never felt uncomfortable in living together with the remodel job which has lasted over four months. The completed two bathrooms were stunning, just as I imagined. Matt, Zen, and Mark have proved their strong & thoughtful expertise and lived up with my request patiently until completion. Great job. A home remodeling project cannot be successful without having a trusted partner, and my experience with MMP has led me to be glad to share my confidence that MMP has a credential to become your reliable partner to manage a construction project together."

"Mostly well.  We purchased the Big Deal for 2 painters for a day which said it would be 2 painters for 9 hours for a total of 18 hours.  They showed up with 3 painters and said their day would end earlier since they would hit their 18 hours sooner with 3 people.  I do wish we had known that in advance, but it worked out.  They told at the beginning that the oil based primer wouldn't have time to dry because it needs to dry for 24 hours, so we had to go back to get latex primer while they prepped.  That was disappointing because everything I read was that the soot should really be covered with oil based primer so that it didn't bleed through.  I wish they had told me that when we were exchanging emails about the job, but maybe I should have known that already.  We had to have the job done that day though, so rescheduling wasn't really an option.  When my husband returned to the store to get latex paint, they asked him to pick up a pack of rollers also.
They did a quality job, painting the ceiling which was probably difficult since the family room had two levels, with part of the room having very high ceilings with skylights, and another part of the ceiling was over a staircase to the basement.  Since we had purchased a deal that was for a specific time frame, they covered a lot with their time, and my husband was set to complete what they didn't get to.  We were happy they were able to prime and paint the entire family room for the most part, and able to prime the bathroom as well.  
They were flexible and worked with us with what to do.  We needed to paint the family room and bathroom and kitchen.  We only wanted to pay for the one day and my husband was prepared to finish whatever was left over himself.  We were hoping they would finish the family room at least.  At some point my husband saw how much time was left, and decided he would rather have them prime the bathroom instead of cutting in along the floor in the family room with the paint (since my husband would rather finish the paint than deal with priming the bathroom himself).  They didn't have a problem with that.
The rooms turned out very well.  Would use them again in the future.

"I recently hired Jack to gut/remodel my kitchen, bath, living, and laundry rooms, as well as some other home repairs. I would categorize Jack as professional, reliable, honest, and responsible; and he was respectful of my needs throughout the project. He provided detailed estimates and worked within my budget without any surprises. He exceeded my expectations and took pride in his work. I was extremely satisfied with the quality of the renovation and I have gotten great feedback from family and friends."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Finishing a basement can provide a great return on investment, by increasing the market price of your home when you want to sell. Beyond that, there are many reasons to finish your basement. Doing so expands the usable square footage of your home, so you can enjoy it more, even as your family grows. Renovating your basement costs less in terms of time, energy, and money than having to search for and buy a new home.

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.

Common mistakes when finishing basement walls include neglecting proper insulation, insufficient moisture management, and poor ventilation. Not addressing these issues can lead to mold growth, water damage, and discomfort. Additionally, inadequate planning, improper framing, and rushing the project can result in subpar outcomes. 

It's essential to follow best practices, seek professional guidance if needed, and prioritize thoroughness and attention to detail.

Although it’s not required, air ventilation in a finished basement can help improve the air quality, prevent moisture and mold issues, keep musty odors away, and also maintain the air quality throughout the rest of your home. Proper ventilation will help maintain the value of your investment in finishing your basement. Try basement ventilation methods like installing vents or a dehumidifier for best results.

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.
