"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."

"Jim was a consummate professional from start to finish. He gave a very detailed quote, patiently answered all our questions, and started the project weeks before we ever thought we'd get a contractor to start. The work was fantastic. Our basement came out beautiful and Jim was a pleasure to work with. He did everything exactly as designed, communicated progress, and was very responsive if we needed anything. He was also very knowledgeable about the various options for finishes, flooring options, etc, and even had some contacts with local businesses that gave us good prices for some of the materials. I highly recommend Hamil Improvement for any remodeling project. Would definitely work with them again!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Key trends include home gyms, theatre rooms, additional rooms (bedroom/office), and more, with personalized styles reflecting individual preferences.

Yes, most general contractors require an initial down payment. A reasonable deposit is typically between 10% and 25% of the total project cost, although this can vary by project size and location. This upfront payment helps the contractor cover initial costs like materials, permits, licensing, and hiring subcontractors. The remaining balance is usually billed according to a schedule outlined in your contract, often tied to project milestones or completion dates. Be cautious of contractors who ask for a large deposit of 50% or more, as this could be a red flag for a scam.

Efficient appliance positioning, optimizing existing plumbing, and sourcing energy-efficient materials reduce financial impact and increase sustainability.
