"We had our kitchen completely remodeled by Hutchins and Son. Owner Don is great to work with. He was able to provide us with the exact custom cabinets and custom color we were looking for. I highly recommend Don and his son ."

"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 was fine. The original design didn’t meet my needs based on the information I provided them. However, they revised the plans which worked out better for me. They were able to get the first draft to me pretty quickly."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is possible to turn a regular basement into a walkout basement. Doing so involves excavating the land around at least one side of your basement foundation, installing retaining walls to create a permanent below-grade area outside your home, and then cutting into the foundation to install an exterior door that leads out to the new space. This is an expensive and time-consuming project, but it can add a lot of value and utility to your home.

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.

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.

Walkout basements cost more than other kinds of basements, and can also increase your risk of leaks as well as a loss of insulation, leading to higher heating and cooling costs. Improperly installed walkout basements may lead to structural issues with your foundation, so ensure you’re working with a contractor who has extensive experience with this kind of basement.

Basements with persistent moisture problems or flooding shouldn’t be finished until the moisture issues have been fixed. In addition, if your foundation is cracked, you have unmitigated radon levels, or you have asbestos or lead pipes, remediate the underlying problem before finishing your basement. Turning a basement into living space before fixing these issues can lead to serious health risks or structural damage.
