"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, adding a walkout basement will usually bump up your property value. Most homeowners prefer walk out basements because the exposed wall that’s level with the ground provides more utility via a ground-level exterior entrance, and they can fit full windows, which adds natural light and ventilation to the basement area. The only exception might be in areas prone to tornadoes, as walkout basements aren’t as safe as regular basements during a tornado, particularly if they include large windows or glass sliding doors.

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.

To determine if your basement walls are suitable for finishing, assess their structural integrity and moisture conditions. Look for any signs of damage, such as cracks, bowing, or excessive moisture. Ensure proper drainage and address any underlying issues before proceeding. 

Consult with a professional if you're uncertain about the structural stability or potential risks associated with finishing your basement walls.

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.

The average cost to remodel a basement is between $12,100 and $33,400. Depending on the project's complexity, the price can be as low as $3,500 or exceed $50,200. For a simple project like adding a home office, you might spend between $500 and $3,000. However, a more extensive project, such as adding a bathroom, can range from $6,600 to $16,500. The final cost is influenced by factors like the basement's size and condition, the type of remodel, material choices, your location, and accessibility. For an accurate price, it's best to consult with a basement remodeling team.
