"Joe and his team did an exceptional job helping us integrate multiple projects in our basement and the results were outstanding! We had to have our existing partially finished basement demolished so we could have french drains and a sump system put in, as well as a geothermal heating/cooling installation accomplished, after having an existing oil burning furnace and radiant heating system removed. The basement restoral project included plumbing and sink replacement, electrical and lighting efficiency upgrades, framing and drywall replacement, door replacements, flooring replacement, and a few decorative additions to give the space some character. The entire process: scoping, design, coordination, execution, and detailed wrap up was accomplished under a great leader and problem solver with highly credible and expert tradesman. We shopped around for multiple quotes before selecting JD Michael Construction. Any and all future projects will go through this team! We are grateful!"

"I reached out to this company for a sump pump upgrade and a cracked wall repair. The technician who did my install was very polite and informative. We've had several big storms since my installation was done and I'm happy to say my basement has remained totally dry. I'm very glad I chose this company, I would recommend them to anyone in need of help with their basement!"

"Had basement windows installed. Great job, explained everything. The windows were the original ones. They covered the floors and the basement steps, cleaned up everything afterwards."

"Precision Remodeling did a phenomenal job rebuilding my leaky basement shower stall the result of poor installation from another contractor this spring. Jamie reassured me that his company uses quality waterproofing materials (Wedi) and employs skilled tradesman. Kirk, the plumbing technician, discovered a secondary leak in the piping and was able to correct the issue before shower installation. Steve meticulously waterproofed and tiled the shower in an intricate herringbone pattern. Grout lines are to perfection and no leaks! Jamie kept me informed of every aspect of the project. All members of the team were prompt, courteous, and clean. Precision Remodeling has earned my trust as a top-rated company. I look forward to my next full bath remodel."

"We hired AES to do our master bathroom remodel. We are very happy with it, it’s beautiful! Everyone was friendly and professional, the sales person/estimator, the two men who did the work, the concierge, they were all very good at what they do. The workers were detail oriented and cleaned up the place every day before they left. We received quotes from 3 companies for this job, AES was in the middle. We really liked the concierge service - they send a designer with you to shop for the tiles, flooring, fixtures, etc, they help you pick everything out and tie it all together into a coherent design. It was very helpful, they even help you pick out paint colors."

"Qualified Remodelers also did our kitchen remodel and repaired our main bath. Joe has innovative ideas to bring your dreams to fruition. The staff was not only respectful of my property, they went out of their way everyday for 3 weeks to minimize dust and the inconvenience that remodeling a basement can bring when your washer and dryer are there and your spare bathroom is being remodeled as a problem arises in the main bathroom. They cleaned up their workspace every night to include mopping the floors and steps so that we could use the main bathroomâ s toilet and sink each night so we did not have to go to the basement in the night. The crew works hard and fast barely taking breaks-there is a clear sign of progress each day. They communicate each day at the start and finish and they make great suggestions and ask questions if something does not jive. We liked the kitchen remodel so much we hired them to vapor seal under our sunroom, to totally remodel our basement and when the main shower started to leak, the jumped right on it-Joe gave me a diagnosis and quote on the spot . Joe is often on site and is very easy to reach. The craftsmanship is amazing. Joe had the crew a few small details that he thought could turn out even better at no cost to us. He also entertained changes to the contract without hassle or jacking the price up for his inconvenience. They were even nice to our pup. They are a great group of seasoned professionals who are very good people. We are very happy with the results and our friends and families are plotting their next projects so they can schedule with Qualified Remodeling. Quotes are fair, clearly spelled out with a payment schedule based on progress. Most wonderfully, it isnâ t done until you are happy and it is done on schedule. No surprises."

"In the midst of remodeling, the contractor and I had disputes on costs of the project. I realized then that they had never clearly presented to me itemized costs of each items to be installed and labor costs. Never agree with any remodeling without knowing those."

Basement Remodel FAQs, answered by experts

Start by securing proper permits for your basement remodeling project, as local authorities require separate approvals for electrical, plumbing, and mechanical work. Schedule moisture remediation and waterproofing before interior finishing to combat Baltimore’s high summer humidity. Check local flood maps and verify zoning rules, especially if creating a rental unit. For older homes, test for lead paint and asbestos, and hire licensed contractors for safe removal.

Helpful?

Narrow lot widths and shared party walls in rowhouses restrict egress window placement and complicate stair reconfiguration. Older homes often feature rubble stone foundations and low ceilings that require expensive underpinning for basement remodeling. Heavy clay soils and high water tables throughout MD create significant lateral pressure on foundation walls. Look for embedded cast iron drain lines or buried oil tanks, which require professional removal before finishing.

Helpful?

Install closed-cell spray foam insulation and moisture-resistant drywall to combat high humidity levels in Baltimore. Choose luxury vinyl plank flooring over solid hardwood, and use raised subfloor panels to create a thermal break. Frame walls with pressure-treated lumber and leave a gap against the foundation for air movement. Install an interior French drain system with a battery backup sump pump to protect your basement remodeling investment from flooding.

Helpful?

Look for white mineral deposits on masonry, musty odors, or stained drywall, as these indicate ongoing water intrusion common in Baltimore. Check for missing egress windows in bedrooms or ceiling heights below seven feet, which violate safety codes. Bowing foundation walls, steep stairs, and outdated knob-and-tube wiring also signal unsafe conditions. Hire a professional to inspect unpermitted basement remodeling work and address these serious hazards.

Helpful?

Adding living space requires evaluating your current HVAC, plumbing, and electrical capacity. Many older homes in MD use steam radiators or outdated electrical panels that cannot support additional loads without upgrades. Assess your plumbing to ensure the existing drain lines can handle new bathroom fixtures. Structural modifications near shared party walls in rowhouses require careful coordination and a structural engineering review to protect both properties.
