"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

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.

Renovation enhances functionality, increases home value, and can add new space for personal or family needs. It typically modernizes older unfinished basements for new uses.

You technically can paint wires in a basement ceiling, but there are several important safety and code considerations. It's safe to paint non-metallic sheathed cable as long as the labeling remains visible. You can also paint low-voltage wires and conduit and junction boxes to help them blend into your basement. 

However, you should not paint damaged or deteriorated wiring is a fire hazard because it poses a fire hazard. The same goes for painting over high-heat wires that connect to heat-generating appliances or systems. Be sure to avoid painting multiple coats onto any wires, as that traps heat and poses fire risks.

For most basement remodels, you’ll want to hire a general contractor. This is for a number of reasons, but the main two are that general contractors have dedicated teams they are comfortable with, and hiring one means you only have to deal with one pro. You may also get a better project quote since they can lump all their work and subcontracting into a single quote. 

Home improvements that increase value offer a high return on investment (ROI) and can enhance your quality of life. Upgrades to your home’s curb appeal often add the most value, with garage door replacement having one of the best ROIs at 93%. Other high-value exterior projects include replacing your front door, upgrading siding and roofing, installing a stone veneer, adding new windows, and landscaping. For interior renovations, a fresh coat of paint provides an excellent ROI. Major projects like a kitchen remodel or upgrading appliances and HVAC systems also add significant value, as potential buyers appreciate the peace of mind that new equipment provides.
