"Hired them for 3 projects I have installed this basement waterproofing solution in 2 homes. System speaks for itself. Nothing better on the market. Work was first rate. Expectations were presented prior to the project. Details on what would happen and how the project would go. Would not hesitate to use again ERV installed New basement egress. This project did not go as planned, but not at the fault of basement systems. Was originally supposed to get a BILCO door but due to unforseen issues, that was not able to happen. They ended up installing a new staircase from my basement to ground level. Work was first rate and ended up better than a bilco door. Company re landscaped and everything is as it was. All work performed was top notch and no issues on anything they have done"

"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!"

AES Homebuilders worked nothing short of a miracle in my home!  I hired them to remodel my basement.  They took a dark, dusty, dated space and transformed it into a contemporary, comfortable and light filled apartment.  This was a total remodel that included a tear out, an electrical heavy up, new plumbing, leveling floors, water proofing and tying in a new bathroom to existing plumbing.   The space features a bathroom, kitchenette, sitting area, two large closets, a stackable washer and dryer unit, and a bedroom. 

They converted the garage into the bedroom, cutting through a cinder block wall to install a new window, pouring concrete to level the floor, and creating a new entry/foyer area where the garage door was formerly located.  They also redid the railing on my upstairs porch and designed a beautiful façade for the new entryway with window, door, sidelight and siding.   The design ties in nicely with my Georgian style brick home  My house was constructed in 1947, which means there is not a square wall or level floor in the space due to natural settlement.  When you walk into the apartment, you get the feeling you are in new brand new construction. 

My installer Steve and his assistant Kim were a highlight of my day.  I could set my watch by their arrival time.  They were consistently there at 7:30, despite their commute from Baltimore to my home which is just outside of DC.  They were on the job every day until the work was completed.   They consulted with me on important decisions and when they needed to make a judgment call in my absence, it was always right on the money.  I had a very good idea what I wanted, as I had ruminated over this space for years.  Their experience and keen eye led to recommendations that I had not considered and that significantly improved the flow/design of the space.   They were very pleasant, polite and professional.  I felt very comfortable with them in my home. 

AES made very good recommendations regarding companies to work with to purchase my cabinets, granite, flooring, tiles etc.  All materials were of high quality and the costs were very good because they extend their contractor discount to me.   I purchased some materials on my own as well with the help and guidance of my installer. 

My experience from the beginning of my interaction with AES to the final sign off was AMAZING.  Bill my sales person and Scott the architect were very patient with me as we worked through the details, project scoping and costs.  They did not rush me in my decision making process, answered all of my questions and were quite entertaining even after hours of discussion.  These guys have worked together for a long time and it?s obvious because they are on the same page which made my experience that much easier.   Tim Munson, the owner of the company was very accessible which was impressive.   Everyone on the staff, from the women in the front office, to the sales team to the builders were a joy to work with.   This is a testament to the company and its leadership.

This project was a huge undertaking.  I was confident but nervous at the outset.  Everyone at AES put my mind at ease, and they delivered in a huge way.  I Am So Grateful to have found this company.   Throughout the project my friends would ask me how things were going and my reply was always, ?I love my contractors?!  My friends would say, Wow.  I?ve never heard anyone say THAT before.  I have several other projects that I plan to complete in preparation for my retirement and I will definitely be calling on AES!  I hope they will work with me again, especially now that they are familiar with all the quirks of my aging home.   This was not a straightforward project for even this company, by any means.

The only ?negative? experience I had working with AES, if I can call it that, was that my project was delayed in starting.  As with all contracting, start and end dates are tough to call.  As a project manager by profession, I totally get that.  My original start date was off by about 8 weeks, which was giving me a little angst by week 4.    I have to say, in spite of this, AES was ABSOLUTLEY WORTH THE WAIT!   I will wait for them again for my next endeavor if necessary.   Good contractors are hard to find.  Finding a great contractor is nothing short of a blessing.  My hat?s off to AES.

My next project will be installing a laundry room, expanding my powder room and installing new floors and granite in my kitchen.  I look forward to doing business with them again.

"Process was smooth even with a difficult setup (old house and the desired location was right above duct work), pipe placement in the basement exceeded expectations and the finished product looks great! Very professional and courteous and worked around my schedule as-needed."

"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."

"I had a great experience working with Guillermo, the owner of D&V Remodelling, for remodelling the bathroom in my condo. He was very knowledgeable and gave me great advice, recommendations, and feedback on the project. When we had unexpected plumbing problems he worked with me to sort it out and still managed to finish the project just one day longer than the estimated timeframe for the project. I would happily work with him again on future projects."

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.

Renovations that add functionality or more comfortable floor space generally add the most value when remodeling your home. Attic or basement finishing can add floor space without altering the home's structure, saving you renovation money while adding valuable space. Smaller improvements, such as installing smart-home components or replacing entry doors and windows, also experience high ROIs. 

Building a bar in the basement will likely add value to your home, although it’s unlikely that you’ll see a significant return on investment (ROI) unless you plan on using the space for you and your guests. If you think you’ll use the area frequently, though, it’s probably worth the investment, and you should see a bump in value if or when you sell your property.

The most challenging part of finishing a basement is addressing moisture control. Basement waterproofing is an essential task that requires a professional’s skills and knowledge. If you don’t properly waterproof your finished basement, it’ll be vulnerable to dampness, water damage, and mold growth. Ensuring proper insulation and ventilation to combat these issues while meeting building codes adds complexity to your remodeling project.

Making a window in a basement larger costs an average of $4,200. You’ll need to pay an average of $550 to have a structural engineer plan the project, $500 to $1,500 for the installation labor, and an average of $2,200 for the excavation and window well installation. The remainder will go toward pulling permits, installing trim, and repairing drywall on the interior.
