"I've used Mike and Cameron on a few of my remodel projects. Mike pays great attention to craftsmanship. When we ran into some technical complications with the remodel, he was able to solve the problem and keep the project moving. Very pleasant to work with. I will be using Techniques again in the future. Thanks again."

Customers say: True professional

"Landson Construction came in as the lowest bidder on the work I needed done and then surpassed my expectations! Ari worked with me to schedule the work around my availability, and sent in respectful, hardworking teams to complete the work. I especially want to shout out to the concrete patio expert, who took an old blueprint from my architect and worked with me to create the perfect patio design based on my current needs and desired landscaping. I've already had people ask me, " Who poured this? It looks great!" Ari was very professional, responsive and patient with my many questions and concerns. When I texted him on the last day of work with a concern, he came over and laid down on the ground to get a look at what I was talking about, and then took the time to walk me through the decisions we made and how the system will work together as planned to keep my basement dry. Now that I know that they do more than just waterproofing and concrete, I will keep them in mind as future work comes up, because I trust them to do a great job, and finish on time."

"Jon was prompt and great to work with.  He offered some great advice on how to eventually lay the carpet and paint (which we were going to do on our own).  I would definitely recommend Jon!

"Bill did all the finishing work on the basement we are completing. Bill started working for us after we had just let another trim worker go because of his poor workmanship. Bill not only showed excellent quality of work, but he fixed all of the mistakes the 1st guy we hired did. I also appreciated the time that Bill took to communicate the progression of the project every step along the way. We would definitely hire Bill again if we were to do another project!"

"We spoke with Dan in late March of this year and met within the week to discuss what we were looking to have completed in our basement.
We had a very strict budget that we wanted to keep to and Dan was honest and upfront about what his pricing was.
There were no hidden costs and Dan seemed to have no problem with letting us know immediately if something was going to cost more than anticipated.
When we signed on with Dan he told us that the project would start within 3 weeks and he was true to his word.
There were a few things we (homeowners) changed along the way and everything went smooth.
The electrician, plumber fireplace & cabinetry companies were all professional and came and went about their business and completed the work in a timely manner.
If we ever had questions or concerns Dan was fairly quick to call us back and his communication was direct and to the point and that was exactly what we were looking for in a builder.
From the beginning Dan and his crew kept things as tidy as can possibly be in the middle of a construction project.  The dust from sheet rock and taping was expected and that was the only concern I had as I have horrible allergies.  
All in all, we are extremely pleased with the job that was completed by Dan and would hire him again without any hesitation.
Our basement was completed within the time frame that we had agreed on and the only reason we went over budget by a few hundred dollars was due to our decisions to change some things along the way.
Very pleased with our decision to hire Dan.
Steve & Taunya

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

When choosing materials for finishing basement walls, consider factors such as moisture resistance, durability, and fire resistance. Opt for materials specifically designed for basement environments, like moisture-resistant drywall or cement board. Insulation with vapor barriers can help regulate temperature and prevent condensation. Consider using mold-resistant paints or coatings. 

Research and consult with experts to select materials that are suitable for your specific basement conditions and intended use. Prioritize quality and compatibility to achieve long-lasting and aesthetically pleasing results.

Some older homes have toilets in the basement to combat sewage backups. This type of toilet, also known as a Pittsburgh potty, acted as a safety valve over the incoming sewer line. If a line backed up, it would back up into the toilet because it was the lowest fixture in the home, keeping it out of sight and away from the finished areas of the house.

Basement toilets were also used by workers with messy jobs, like those who worked in coal mines or steel mills. This way, they could clean up and avoid tracking dirt through their home.

For most basement remodels, you’ll want to hire a general contractor. This is for a number of reasons, but the main two are that general contractors have dedicated teams they are comfortable with, and hiring one means you only have to deal with one pro. You may also get a better project quote since they can lump all their work and subcontracting into a single quote. 

Yes, most general contractors require an initial down payment, typically between 10% and 25% of the total project cost. This upfront payment helps cover the costs of materials, permits, and subcontractors. The remaining project costs are usually billed after specific project milestones are reached or on set completion dates, as outlined in your contract. Be wary of contractors who require a significant deposit of 50% or more upfront, as this could be a red flag for a scam.

Professional remodelers streamline the process, manage permits, and handle renovations efficiently—significantly mitigating risk while maintaining standards.
