"We had a pretty big project, removing an old camp roof and building a new roof rotated 90 degrees, and adding a loft area. We were very happy with Andrew and his crew. They really go the extra mile to make sure everything is done right - they don't cut corners and take pride in their work. They installed new windows in the front and even used Windex to wipe off their finger smudges! Price was very good, and they're good, honest guys to work with. Very pleased!"

"I cannot recommend Drew Foley and Woodland Building Company highly enough! From start to finish, the experience was absolutely seamless. The crew is flat-out amazing—their talent is unmatched, and their craftsmanship is truly next-level. What really sets them apart, though, is their communication. Drew keeps everything incredibly clear and concise, so you always know exactly what to expect, when they’ll be there, and how the project is moving forward. If you want a team that is professional, remarkably skilled, and great to work with, this is it!"

"Custom 32’x36’ Goldiva Goldens LLC showroom plus 14x32 pergola and 14x67 pergola plus a small bathroom in the basement; re-tile basement area too. Scott Turcott, Tyler & Michael are great to work with, great communications. In 20 months of building my showroom there wasn’t a single disagreement. If something “didn’t work” as envisioned, like an incinerator toilet that burned the ash, Scott gave me the options. They’re a fabulous team!!"

"Billy was referred to me by a friend when I mentioned adding a deck to my house. From the jump, Billy was very professional providing me an on-site consultation explaining in detail what he was going do to fulfill my vision. The project was done in a timely manner and I’m very happy with the results. I have other projects I’m hoping to accomplish in the future so I will definitely be giving Billy a call!"

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.

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.

Rebar is an essential part of reinforcing a basement floor, as not having it can impact its structural integrity. It helps absorb the tension factors that contribute to cracks in your floor and strengthens its load-bearing capabilities by evenly distributing the weight. Not including rebar could lead to an unstable floor, so don’t skip it!

Building up by adding square footage to the top of your home is often less expensive than adding a basement, but it depends on the specifics of your house, your property, and supply costs. Because building a basement requires excavation, it can be a more expensive option than building up.

Any bowing in a basement wall indicates a problem that needs to be addressed by a professional. If your basement wall bows more than 1 inch, it's time for an inspection. Generally, a wall can bow up to 30% of its thickness (around 2.5 inches for an 8-inch-thick wall) before it becomes an urgent situation. Bowing of 2 to 4 inches is more straightforward to fix than bowing of more than 4 inches, which will require significant repairs. If the bowing is more than 6 inches, the wall will likely need to be replaced. The sooner you address the problem, the easier and less expensive the repair will be.
