"Bob and his crew did a great job framing the barn. They were able to adapt to the county and local inspections and made sure the site was clean afterwards. He was in contact with me and the subcontractors daily and the project was completed in a timely manner considering the large amount of work that was done. The crew was friendly and cooperative."

"Larry Barr is an extremely professional and trustworthy contractor. My daughter and I hired Done Rite to finish basement ceiling tiles and we received expert advice and service. We also had 3 rooms painted and are more than pleased. I could not ask for a more considerate and courteous work crew. Larry had no problem taking care of all of the other small jobs we added on. Superior Job Well Done!"

"They are professional and thorough, but there is really no wiggle room if you would like something differently done. Choices in booklet are pretty basic, not a lot of options (for flooring types, door style, trim) This company is like the Anderson Windows of basements. (No doubt they spend a lot on advertising; There is a reason they are the top result when searching!) Expect to pay quite a bit more than you planned, but I knew if I chose them it would be done and warrantied for everything. Sometimes you just want to sign and not worry, and I would definitely pick Finished basements plus if you are in that situation and have the budget."

"My wife and I hired Diamond Developments (DD) to completely remodel our master bathroom shower. Remodel consisted of tearing out the old tile, fixtures, and substructure and replacing them with new Prior to the work, we had the custom glass shower doors and partitions removed by our local glass company that installed them many years ago. We wanted to use the same glass for this current project. DD assigned Justin and Anthony to our remodel. From day 1, they were always on time and ready to work. Floors and stairs leading up to the work area were covered with heavy-duty paper and plastic for protection. At the end of the work day, the work areas were cleaned and organized for the next. They were helpful and would give a daily summary of work completed and what the next dayâ s work plan was. We never had to guess. The tile remodel was all subway tile with custom inlays and niches. The work was beautifully and precisely performed by Justin and Anthony. Our glass guy was called back when the project was done. and was able to use ALL the old glass He remarked that this never happens and was totally impressed as were we at the work completed by DD. Our new master bath shower project was completed beyond our expectations and performed by quality, conscientious, professionals. My wife and I are very happy with Paul and his team from Diamond Developments and will use them again for future projects. Thank you!"

"Excellent work. M is a real problem solver. He figured alternative solutions to fancy bike racks that were not working; so that actually saved me money by returning them. He fixed a squeak on a closet door that was probably like that for 50 years. He’s very thorough and knowledgeable. He is now my official handyman!"

"Craig and his crew are awesome, I’m So glad I picked Artistic Construction and Design !!! I got 3 bids for my basement project, all highly rated on “Angie” and Craig was the lowest ……by over $20,000 !!! The best part is that Craig designed everything and gave us a blueprint. His finish crew (Chris and Kenny’s ) work was excellent and there crew shows up every day at 7am till finished ……literally found a diamond in the ruff !"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

It’s less expensive to finish your basement than it is to build an addition to your home. The average cost to refinish a basement is $32,000 (between $7 and $23 per square foot) while building an addition to your home costs $50,325 ($80 to $210 per square foot). Depending on the size of your basement and other factors, like moving plumbing and electrical, refinishing a basement is a more cost-effective option in most cases.

If you have the woodworking experience to build a bar from scratch and you have the time, DIYing the work is a no-brainer and can save a few thousand dollars. However, if you’re looking to include a sink, additional lighting fixtures, or high-end bar tops and cabinets, it’s usually a better idea to call in a pro. It will cost more, but the finished product will likely be worth it.

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.

There are several small, inexpensive upgrades you can make to upgrade your basement. Although you still need to adhere to building codes and obtain permits when necessary, you can complete small but mighty tasks like painting the masonry walls and installing entertainment devices to make the space more usable. 

The time it takes to finish or remodel a basement can vary significantly, ranging from a few weeks to several months or even up to a year. On average, the construction phase can take four to eight weeks, but the total project time can extend to three or four months when including planning and permits. The timeline depends on several factors, including the basement's size, design complexity, the scope of the work, and your contractor's availability. A more detailed breakdown for an average-sized basement might include: framing (3-5 days), electrical and rough-in plumbing (3-5 days), drywall installation (5 days), flooring (2-3 days), and final touches like painting and trim (about a week). If preliminary work like installing a waterproofing system or addressing structural issues is needed, the timeline could extend to six to twelve months. Factors like difficult access, material transport, and ventilation needs can also add to the project's duration.
