"We hired Doug King of SMK Property Maintenance to complete our deck project. The work was originally scheduled to begin on October 14 but did not commence until November 4, and the project was not completed until December 10. What should have been a straightforward undertaking extended to nearly two months. During the process, we were advised to order the wrong product, which was subsequently installed and could not be returned. As a result, the deck?s initial appearance was unsatisfactory. There was lot of miscommunication between him and his contractors. We ended up with two different contractors and the second one completed To his credit, Doug corrected the issue by having the incorrect boards removed and replacing them with the proper materials. However, this required us to purchase the correct materials ourselves, further delaying the project. While the finished deck ultimately looks excellent, the overall experience was marked by significant frustration and avoidable setbacks. "

Basements Plus was founded in 2003 when Steve and Amy Iverson set out with a simple goal... help families get the most out of their homes. What began around their kitchen table, has grown into a team of 80+ professionals working from a full warehouse in Commerce, Michigan. From the very beginning, their vision has been about more than construction... it’s about turning dark, unused basements into warm, welcoming spaces where families can gather, relax, & make lasting memories. In 2020, that mission expanded with the launch of basement waterproofing services, giving homeowners added protection and peace of mind. Today, both remodeling & waterproofing continue to grow throughout Southeast Michigan, all driven by the same family values, honesty, and craftsmanship that built the family business from day one.

"We had Tersigni & Sons Construction install a bathroom in our basement. From the very beginning, Pete was very professional and communications were exceptional. We always knew what to expect and when during the project which is critical when both spouses work. Pete completed the project while working with our schedules . Finished product is exactly what we were looking for ... thank you Pete ! We will be in touch when we're ready to complete the rest of our basement."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Costs are guided by renovation scope, materials chosen, project duration, structural needs, and labor. Prioritizing tasks prevents unforeseen expenses.

Living in a finished basement is acceptable, but only if the space has the proper points of egress and includes smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) detectors to ensure the safety of the occupants. A good way to ensure your finished basement is suitable for use as living space is to get the basement finishing project properly permitted.

Yes, you can add a door to your basement—it might even be required, depending on building codes in your area and whether or not you’re using the basement as a bedroom. A basement contractor can give you some advice on installation and help you add a door to your basement.

Roughing in and connecting utilities are the hardest parts of finishing a basement, and they’re the parts we typically don’t recommend doing as a DIY project. Unfortunately, your finishing timeline can be extended by weeks while you wait for contractors and inspectors to install electrical wiring, plumbing lines, and heating/cooling equipment and carry out inspections.

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.
