"Andrade have completed several projects for me to include roofing, flooring, bathroom remodeling, fireplace, and wall repairs. I have been extremely happy with the work he has done. So much so, that I plan to have him construct a retaining wall. His crew is professional, timely, and creative. He are exceptional in proving ideas to improve projects. Plus their prices are very reasonable. Happy Customer!"

"I am so lucky to work with Mr. Murat and his crew to renew my kitchen, bathroom. It was great experience, they showed professionalism the moment they got into my house. Very responsive, delivered as promised. They also did couple extra work with no charge even it was not included in initial estimate. To be honest, things went better then my expectations. We also continued living in the house while construction happening. Me and wife thought it would be a nightmare but they collaborated very well and we did not have any major issues. Definitely would suggest working with him. Hope he will be around if I would need any other help..."

"Communication and punctuality were excellent. But Accurate Upgrades quote was 2 1/2 times more than the other 4 ceramic tile installers I received a price from (they wanted $5300 to do the job, whereas my other 4 quotes from licensed installers were in the $1500-$2000 range). Always suspect when a bid is so far removed from comparable quotes."

"Out of 3 quotes, Davis Construction was the best value. The quality of craftsmanship was fantastic and they showed up to work every day and completed the project in less than a week. Also, the owner, John, shows up himself to do the work everyday which goes a long ways for me. He even offered to do the little things that made the project even more complete like build a small 2 stair step to the porch. Davis cosntruction will always be on my list to get quotes for every project."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Permits may be required for major repairs, structural work, or electrical and plumbing restoration after a flood. Check with your local building department to determine permit requirements and associated fees for your flooded basement cleanup project. Obtaining the correct permits helps ensure work is done safely and up to code.

To determine if your basement walls are suitable for finishing, assess their structural integrity and moisture conditions. Look for any signs of damage, such as cracks, bowing, or excessive moisture. Ensure proper drainage and address any underlying issues before proceeding. 

Consult with a professional if you're uncertain about the structural stability or potential risks associated with finishing your basement walls.

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.

The best type of basement ventilation system depends on your budget, the moisture in your basement’s air, and the types of windows you have down there. You should consider all of these factors when choosing a ventilation system. However, the most effective method for basement ventilation is an energy recovery ventilator (ERV) or a whole-house ventilation system, which preheats or precools incoming air from the outside while also managing water vapor.

You should plan on waiting at least a year and ideally two to three years after construction before finishing your basement. This will give the foundation time to settle in response to the weight of your home and the expansion of the surrounding soil. You can then repair your foundation and seal any cracks as needed before finishing it to reduce your risk of future leaks or other issues.
