"Scott has been awesome to work with! He ran point on a complete remodel of a cabin in NH for me. I'm not local, so having to do a major rehab when living 3 hours away was concerning. Scott and team have made it more than easy. Scott's communication has been 10/10 - He constantly sends photos, always answers his phone and ensures there is a weekly goal each week. He has also brought in some AMAZING sub contractors which has also saved me a ton of time. He has managed point with all of them which helped me in a big way. Scotts work has also been fantastic. We gutted two full bathrooms which turned out way better than expected. We also brought some "ideas" to the table as the relate to accent walls which he built perfectly to spec - Couldn't be happier with how they came out. I had Scott install some high end laminate flooring which apparently is not easy to install - They turned out perfectly. Scott went the extra mile to ensure it was done correctly. Scott and team have been awesome, I'll definitely be hiring them again!"

"This project was supposed to be "phase one" of three projects that we hired NE Renovation to complete.  On day one, the basement was prepped - all carpeting was covered and baseboard heating covers were removed.  Sheetrock was supposed to be installed on the next day, but due to a serious injury to the sub-contractor, that was not done.  Instead, demolition work began on what was supposed to be "phase two" of the project - the remodeling of a bathroom.  We had not been expecting this change in schedule and to be fair, neither did anyone else.  The basement project was put on hold until an alternate plan could be made.  A few weeks later, work began again on the basement.  The sheetrock was installed very well and in quick time.  The plaster work was completed perfectly which was no small task given the length of the walls. Additionally, the paint job was done perfectly.  The new six-panel doors, wall mounted television, upgraded lighting, and new baseboard heating covers helped complete the transition of the space from 1970 to 2012!

The value we received from this project has exceeded our expectations.  We added a pool table and two sectional sofas to complete our new recreational space.  It serves as a great "man cave" as well as a great place for family and friends to hang out.  NE Renovations did a great job renovating our basement."

"It is a waste of money. The great majority of people are not going to find any value out of the service. If you need design consultation, you need a full service consultation. If you already have knowledge and experience, and you just need to get a few ideas, then you don't need to pay for that. You can just get a magazine or a book since you already have the knowledge of basic designs in your head or a little bit of experience. To have someone call you and give you information over the phone, you are not getting the personal service that you need. You may as well take the money $49 and apply it to something else like getting someone else to come out and give you the service that you need. Because, you are not getting much, you are not getting anything at all. They are going to have you do the work. After talking to them and I was talking to other home designers, I found out that that was a waste of time and waste of money. I gave them a C because they didn't fail at what they do but they don't offer any value for what they do. There's not much value to it. The cost was fair. They didn't do a terrible job and the cost isn't terrible, it was only $49. It just has a very low value. For responsiveness I gave them a B because they will answer your phone and answer your emails."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

When considering finishing your basement, take into account a few pros and cons:

Pros

  • Can increase the value of your home

  • Separate space from the rest of the house 

  • Customize and personalize the basement to suit your needs and style

  • Increase the amount of living space in your home

Cons

  • May not regain enough value to cover the cost of finishing

  • Lack of natural light if it’s below ground level

  • Moisture or flooding can cause costly damage

  • Installing plumbing and electrical can be messy and costly

A finished basement must have a heat and electrical supply with an entrance that meets building code requirements, such as a stairwell to the home's main living space. It often must include finished walls, ceilings, and floors. If the finished basement includes a bedroom, it should have a heat source, an egress window, and a closet.

Remodeling, as opposed to finishing, means altering an already finished basement by adding a bathroom, bedroom, or living area.

You can paint your ceiling or install a drywall ceiling if the ceiling is unfinished, as they take up less headroom than drop ceilings. 

If there are pipes in the way of ceiling installation, you can do one of two things: reroute the pipes or adjust the installation to fit, which will cost extra.

In addition to overseeing new home builds, construction managers work on large renovations and major remodels. For example, they may work with designers and oversee the construction of a finished basement, kitchen renovation, or a home addition. They may also oversee large-scale remodels, such as the update of a historic home. Construction managers step into small projects for more specific assistance, such as building budgets and compiling the team.

Yes, you can install a summer kitchen or kitchenette in your basement. They serve similar purposes as outdoor kitchens, keeping the main floor of the house cool and providing another space to cook and congregate. Basement kitchens are also a worthwhile alternative for homeowners without much space in the backyard. They come with a few logistical questions to sort out, though, like ventilation and waterproofing.
