"I desperately needed a basement window replaced, it was broken and the frame was falling out. J&Ms guys showed up ready to work and had a new window in a few hour installed. They also asked me how I wanted this or that done, which I appreciated greatly. We are very happy with the new windows and will likely have them back for future projects."

"Matrix Basement Solutions paired my husband and me with a skillful field foreman named Contonio (Rico) Hill. Rico provided excellent service. He made sure Matrix Basements met all of our needs with exceeding expectations. From start to finish, if we asked any questions during the way, Rico provided detailed answers and made sure our understanding was clear. As first-time homeowners, our experience with this company was a pleasant one. Rico made any doubts we had along the way vanish because his knowledge and expertise made us feel as if we made a great choice with using this company for our first significant project, our first home. If possible, I would highly recommend using this company and request Contonio (Rico) Hill as your foreman. He treats your home and project as if it was his home. Thank you, Matrix and Rico, for providing excellent customer service. We would recommend this company to anyone considering a significant renovation in their family home."

"They were great, the man did the job, got out. In the winter, when lot of snow was still in the ground of water against the basement and we have a poured foundation, it had leak, they had stopped the leak we had. They did what they pledged to do. They were here on-time, they got done quickly and then they went and the overall seam link that was leaking was about 7 feet from upper part down to the ground, and we are very happy. They did the work they promised to do on time and on budget."

"We closed on a house in January that needed some work on the plumbing. The sump pump didn't work, and the washing machine drained into the laundry tub, which drained into the nonworking sump pump. The main drain had been patched together where it exits the house, and was leaking, which meant that every time a toilet was flushed or water was run, it dripped into a bucket...nice. Needless to say, the smell in the basement wasn't the greatest! In addition, the water meter was old and corroded and needed to be upgraded, and the main shutoff needed to be brought up to code. I also wanted the flexible dryer vent replaced with a safer solid aluminum pipe, and wanted faucets on the laundry tub. We scheduled the initial visit for 8:30 a.m., and Brian actually arrived before I did (we were not yet living in the house). All told it took four visits to finish all of the work, which also had to be coordinated with the managers of the community well to facilitate shutoff of the water to the house. Hedlund arranged that, which involved tracking down a contact person and getting someone to meet Brian at an appointed time. At every visit, Brian and the other plumbers were prompt, courteous, and tried their best to avoid making a mess of the floors, since this was all happening in the winter with plenty of snow, salt and slush to get tracked in. All in all, it was about as painless as something like this could be.

"Amanda was really very good!  At first I was very skeptical, thinking why did I pay money to just speak with someone on the phone about my kitchen remodel project... but after just a few minutes of her addressing some of the issues/questions I emailed to her earlier, I knew it was worth it.  It was very clear that she knew her business and she gave me several ideas that I had not even thought about.  I told her that I would definitely recommend her to friends and I will very likely use her again myself for my next home project!

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Create a checklist, reimagine the space use, set a realistic budget, choose materials and aesthetic details, and get professional support for guidelines and troubleshooting.

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.

Envision the type of bar experience you'd like to create for your guests. For example:

  • Does your basement have enough finished space for bar stools or seating?

  • What type of additional lighting would set the tone for the room?

  • Are there basement windows or an HVAC system?

  • Do you need new plumbing in your basement for a proper wet bar?

  • Could you be happy with a built-in wall cabinet bar rather than a full-scale wet bar?
