"BEST RENOVATION COMPANY EVER!! Jose, Leo and the crew at J.A.K.E. Prestige Renovations have been absolutely incredible to work with. Very professional, detailed and high quality work. Communication was always timely and progress stayed on point. They turned our unfinished basement into everything we imagined it could be. We couldn’t have asked for a better company to work with. I’m so glad we connected with J.A.K.E. Prestige Renovations."

"If you are in need of home renovations or home repairs, S&J Remodeling is an AWESOME company to call on. We are extremely satisfied with their work! Following a hot water heater blowout that resulted in six plus hours of continuously running water, and knee-high water damage in our basement, we were in need of major repairs; S&J Remodeling best fit our request for proposal requirements, of which included basement remodeling, kitchen repairs, and interior / exterior painting and patching. S&J Remodeling’s pricing was competitive, and winning consecutive “Angi Super Service” accolades for 15 years running was definitely a plus!!! Their customer service and genuine friendliness is praiseworthy, certainly a quality seldom found. Stacey and Jerry’s program coordination, task execution management, responsiveness, and professionalism were instrumental in ensuring effective communication with Oscar, the on-site supervisor and myself. Their efforts led to well-scheduled and well-done task execution, allowing my wife to fulfill her 9-5 job responsibilities, and my family to maintain a high-level of comfort throughout the renovation and repair process. I will definitely call upon S&J Remodeling for any future home renovation or repairs. I recommend that you do the same!"

"We had significant water damage to our basement floor and ended up needing to replace the entire floor and parts of the walls. A hugely stressful situation got so much better after finding John and his team! They just finished the basement today and it’s absolutely perfect. They did the drywall, trim, flooring, replaced a vanity light, and installed a curtain rod. We are so incredibly happy with the work done and will absolutely be using this company for future home repairs and remodels!"

"We needed to replace a Peachtree hinged patio door that provides access to our walk out basement. We have used AES for 5 remodeling projects over the past 5 years and they have always done excellent work. So, I called Dave Hill, our salesman at AES. Dave came out to the house promptly to take a look at the door and give us an estimate. He recommended a ProVia door as the best value. Mark, their door installer, came out to take measurements. The door was delivered to the house and Mark came out to do the install. The original door was a non-standard size and an unusual install. The only way the new door was going to fit was if they removed the inside drywall, floor tile and vinyl floor around the door, installed the door and then replaced everything. Mark was willing and able to do the work but after more discussion we agreed that the job was getting out of hand. AES ordered a seconds door (at no cost to us) that could be installed from the outside. Mark came out a second time and installed the door in about 5 hours. The new door fits perfectly. The inside finishing work looks great and the outside is well sealed and looks great."

"We hired Gomez Contractors for our master bathroom remodeling after seeing their great reviews on Google. I have to say that we are extremely pleased with how our bathroom turned out and how beautiful it looks. Santos and his team were extremely professional and accommodated all of our requests. They showed up on time every day for the duration of the remodel, and they provided high quality service. The company is affordable and Santos worked within our budget without charging any hidden fees. Everyone on his team is extremely friendly and we felt comfortable having them in our home working on our bathroom. We are definitely using them again for our next project. Highly recommend!"

Basement Remodel FAQs, answered by experts

The time it takes to finish or remodel a basement can vary significantly, ranging from a few weeks to several months or even up to a year. On average, the construction phase can take four to eight weeks, but the total project time can extend to three or four months when including planning and permits. The timeline depends on several factors, including the basement's size, design complexity, the scope of the work, and your contractor's availability. A more detailed breakdown for an average-sized basement might include: framing (3-5 days), electrical and rough-in plumbing (3-5 days), drywall installation (5 days), flooring (2-3 days), and final touches like painting and trim (about a week). If preliminary work like installing a waterproofing system or addressing structural issues is needed, the timeline could extend to six to twelve months. Factors like difficult access, material transport, and ventilation needs can also add to the project's duration.

A finished basement does not always count as square footage, as this varies by state regulations. In areas that allow below-grade spaces to be included in a home's official square footage, the basement must typically meet certain conditions. These conditions often include having a functional egress and being a livable space with flooring, finished walls, and temperature control. To be certain, contact your local assessor to confirm your area's specific policies regarding basement square footage.

Costs are guided by renovation scope, materials chosen, project duration, structural needs, and labor. Prioritizing tasks prevents unforeseen expenses.

In many homes, an unfinished basement is an ideal place for an in-ground pool. The concrete floors, protection against water damage, and access to the ground below your home make this a large contender. Speak with a local basement remodeling contractor to ensure your space is right for the large construction.

If you’re not sure which method of raising the ceiling is best for you, here are a couple of considerations to help you make that decision. A professional ceiling company will be able to help you determine the best option for your home.

  • How long you are planning to live there: although raising the basement ceiling will increase the value of your home, if you’re planning to sell the house, then go for raising the house.

  • The condition of the foundation: to lower the floors, your foundation has to be intact whereas raising the house will allow you to restore the damaged foundation.
