"We consider ourselves very lucky to have found just the right person in Wade Ambrose, to handle this complex job. Replacing 200+ linear feet of rotting exterior "rain boards" with plastic lumber. We knew that it might seem straightforward, and a certain amount was just that, but rot had set in below the top layer, and Wade and apprentice Sage, expertly removed all that, replaced it not only in the best workmanlike manner, but a real touch of aesthetics when faced with unforeseen issues: garden hose bibs, propane tank ice shields and piping, movable stairs that needed to be close to house but still shed rain. Because of all that, it took a full two weeks, but much was due to weather--beyond anyone's controlled-- and supply issues. Clean work site during and after and took all the demo away. Good for next 30 years. We also wanted to praise Wade for his good balance of family/work life. Even though there were long days of sunlight in August, Wade was sure to not go for 12 hour workdays, and safety issues that can result. He was happy, we were happy, Sage was happy to learn with him. You will be too. (And below estimated cost!)"

"Prompt, reasonable and professional. Good crew. Came up with great ideas on other projects I have in mind. Love my new ceiling, they fixed all the rot in my subfloors and prepped for new flooring. Would recommend for all your weekend projects. Did I mention they work efficiently? what they got done in a weekend probably would have taken a 4 man crew a week. Nick, Gerry and Frank are the crew for you."

"The Bog Hill team was tremendously professional, responsive and knowledgeable. They quickly removed our old farmhouse porch, which had become a safety hazard, and replaced it with a beautiful landing and staircase. They also took the time to repair issues from previous work done by another carpenter who had not finished and took care of all of the final touches, such as installing new light fixtures over the porch, putting up new gutters, and finding a PERFECT paint match for the replaced siding. The entire team was courteous and flexible, keeping in mind that we have toddlers and dogs. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone in need of home repairs, upgrades, or any other projects. We ll definitely be calling them again for future home improvements!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

The cost of finishing a basement is about $18,400 on average. As you can see, the framing portion of this project costs less, because you’re essentially just dealing with laying the foundation for a finished basement. The finishing portion of the project involves a lot more intricate work and design, as well as high-end materials.

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.

Building a bar in the basement will likely add value to your home, although it’s unlikely that you’ll see a significant return on investment (ROI) unless you plan on using the space for you and your guests. If you think you’ll use the area frequently, though, it’s probably worth the investment, and you should see a bump in value if or when you sell your property.

Kitchens and bathrooms are typically the most expensive rooms to renovate. The high cost is due to several factors, including expensive appliances like ranges, hoods, and refrigerators, as well as costly fixtures. The 'bones' of the room, such as electrical and plumbing, are also expensive to move or replace. Because of the vast amount of prep work, finishing, and specialized labor involved in a relatively small footprint, these projects can cost double or more than a living space remodel. Even when trying to renovate on a budget, kitchens and bathrooms will likely carry a hefty price tag.
