"We are currently happy with the basement waterproofing and remodeling that was completed! There were issues - most minor but we haven't anything to compare as this was the first-time having contractors complete basement work for us; and our home is almost 100 years old. They were flexible given unexpected issues that came about with the basement. The water proofing was done first and they did a great job. They were happy to review and resolve any remaining questions/concerns and/or issues. Jorge in the service dept. is professional, punctual and is a great representative and asset for this company."

"While we have not done the project the team was helpful with getting things sorted out until we are ready to pull the trigger. Mike Walsh was particularly helpful and responsive. When we do the basement we will reach out to Dewar again to actually perform the work."

"Glorem has done fantastic job in my basement. The basement was totally unfinished of around 1000sqft. I had around 11 estimates for the job. I had a wide range of prices. They were not the cheapest but they offered the most detailed plan and price list of everything in the project. Their price was also very reasonable. Eugen and his team are extremely organized, honest and dedicated to quality work. Eugen was on top of very details in the project was present during all inspections. I really appreciate the hard work. I had a kitchenette bathroom and living area in my basement."

"Contractor did excellent work. Asked before any needed change was done. Over the several days it took to complete re-decking the surface and replacing the stairs , when finished for the day he removed all of the debris from each day so none was accumulated in the yard."

"We were thoroughly impressed at the punctuality, professionalism, and overall outcome of our basement finishing project. There was nothing to begin with but cement flooring and a cinder block foundation, so Ed had to frame everything out, insulate everything, add new wiring for the electric, make minor HVAC modifications, install doors, new flooring, etc.. It was really a complete build. From day one, Ed was thoroughly professional and proficient in his ability to not only explain all of the design and material options, but overwhelmingly knowledgeable in doing what was right for our situation. Most importantly, he didn't try to oversell us on things that we didn't need. Ed and his crew went above and beyond my expectations by addressing issues that were outside the scope of what was initially discussed. When we discovered that too many kitchen appliances were on the same circuit breaker (overloading the circuit), Ed’s team moved the oven to another circuit so that the oven would work if the circuit breaker ever tripped. When we learned the existing rough-in plumbing wasn’t suitable to meet the needs of both the new bathroom and wet bar being built, he incorporated all modifications and plumbing extensions into the project without changing the original priced agreed upon !! To my amazement, when the router network connections (placed in the basement for some strange reason) to the first floor computer kept dropping because of interference, he agreed to install an Ethernet cable and Coaxial cable on the first floor so that we could move the router to the first floor, making the computer and DVD streaming device lightning fast. He even did things totally outside the project. When we had extraordinary high BGE bill one month (and a suddenly very cold house on the 2nd floor), he took the time to go up into the attic one morning and explained that the HVAC cold Air return had become detached in a specific area (causing all the cold air in the attic to funnel back through the return to the furnace), but ensured us that it was fixable, making us girls in the house feel relieved. This level of service was something that I never expected, a true gentleman! Ed not only addressed issues that we had, but explained thoroughly the best approach for fixing them, leaving me feeling as though I was an expert with all the maintenance needs of my home after the job had been done. Ed made me feel included from the start with materials selection ( lights, paint color, flooring, doors, door hardware, bathroom fixtures, and everything in between). I was very comfortable throughout the entire process because I was included in everything from beginning to end. The price for the quality of work that we received was beyond compare, truly an exceptional value! I have recommended him to all of my girlfriends because he takes such great pride in his work. If you want your basement to reflect the pride that he takes in his work, by all means, cal"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Unless you have extensive experience in construction work, remodeling a basement is best left to a professional. There are several tasks associated with this project that require exact precision, including:

  • Replacing insulation 

  • Replacing carpet or other flooring 

  • Adding heating and cooling

  • Adjusting or adding walls and doors

  • Altering or adding plumbing elements

If any of these elements is done incorrectly, it could severely impact the quality of your basement remodel and be dangerous. Changing a basement often comes with code safety requirements, like egress windows and proper ventilation. Therefore, leaving it up to a professional is often the best decision.

A walkout basement is considered to be partially below grade because at least one wall is entirely exposed. In some cases and in specific municipalities, inspectors and appraisers will still count walkout basements as below grade, which means the space can’t serve as living space or be rented out. If you intend on using the area as living space or a separate apartment, you should check with your local building department to make sure it’s legal to do so.

Walkout basements are not generally included in a home’s square footage, although they may be if they meet certain conditions that depend on local regulations. A finished walkout basement used as a living space may be counted toward square footage in some locations as long as all codes for livable space are met.

Yes, adding a walkout basement will usually bump up your property value. Most homeowners prefer walk out basements because the exposed wall that’s level with the ground provides more utility via a ground-level exterior entrance, and they can fit full windows, which adds natural light and ventilation to the basement area. The only exception might be in areas prone to tornadoes, as walkout basements aren’t as safe as regular basements during a tornado, particularly if they include large windows or glass sliding doors.

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.
