"We are so happy that we hired Benchmark to remodel our kitchen! Lee and Ian were professional and knowledgeable, from beginning to end. We were very impressed with their attention to detail. They made our 1980's dingy, dark kitchen look amazing with beautiful white cabinets and granite countertops. We love it! I highly recommend Benchmark and will recommend them to my family and friends. Thank you, Lee and Ian! Sallie and Don M."

"Pro Warrior did an amazing job on our house renovation. Yann’s crew is the hardest working crew I have seen. They were here from 7:30am till 5:30pm everynight they came. The fine details with the siding , trim and metal work was amazing by them. Our house looks so updated and modern. Looks like a brand new house. We highly reccommend Pro Warrior for any construction needs."

"Jim was excellent! Jim added a new bathroom to our attic and built a new laundry room in our basement. He helped us develop a plan for the entire house and gave guidance without being pushy. Jim and his subcontractors were always friendly to our family and our pets. I highly recommend Jim and plan on having him do future projects."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Finishing a basement can provide a great return on investment, by increasing the market price of your home when you want to sell. Beyond that, there are many reasons to finish your basement. Doing so expands the usable square footage of your home, so you can enjoy it more, even as your family grows. Renovating your basement costs less in terms of time, energy, and money than having to search for and buy a new home.

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.

Yes, most general contractors require an initial down payment, typically between 10% and 25% of the total project cost. This upfront payment helps cover the costs of materials, permits, and subcontractors. The remaining project costs are usually billed after specific project milestones are reached or on set completion dates, as outlined in your contract. Be wary of contractors who require a significant deposit of 50% or more upfront, as this could be a red flag for a scam.

Adding an extension or addition to your home costs more than a loft conversion in all but the rarest cases where the home's structural integrity is lacking. Because a home addition requires a new foundation section or significant structural upgrades to handle a cantilevered portion, the cost compared to almost any loft conversion is significantly greater for the same square footage.

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.
