"I rank Landson Construction #1 in the list of contractors we have hired in our 40 years of home ownership. Ari and his team of subcontractors recently completed a challenging remodel of one of our bathrooms--challenging because it is a very small area with limited space. Their finished job looks better than our separate remodel of a larger bathroom completed by one of the big firms that advertises daily on television. Examples: the tile work in our small shower is exceptional, and the vanity/oversized sink is a perfect match that does not dominate the small room. Ari Erickson (no relation to me) offered selections from his preferred vendors, but we had full latitude to shop on our own for all tile and fixtures. He and his subcontractors kept us fully apprised at all stages of the project, arrived promptly throughout the course of the work, responded promptly to our texts and emails, and cleaned up their work area at the end of each day. My highest recommendation: I always seek at least four bids for a major project, but I would forego that process and hire Landson Construction again for future building/remodeling projects, and would encourage friends and family to do the same."

Overall disappointed in the ethics and lack of integrity. "

"A couple years ago, my husband and I noticed a leak in or roof at the joint between our four season porch and the main house. Last year I contacted Super Siders and we thought we'd identified and fixed the problem. Returning to Minnesota this month, it was obvious that we hadn't. I called Super Siders again and Russ came out. After some ingenious testing, he identified the problem and went above toward getting the leak repaired. Two thumbs up for Super Siders!"

You will find us to be competitively priced with close attention to the details. Our reputation is based on service, safety, and quality, regardless of how large or small the job. We look forward to building a lasting relationship and guarantee your satisfaction!

"We were really impressed with the team and the building process. It was so smooth, and we didn't have to oversee every little detail. From the initial quote, contract, permits, and HOA approval to the installation and inspection, everything was well-coordinated and communicated. The cost was competitive, and we received five quotes. Nick was the first contractor to give us an official in-person quote. He took the time to walk through our property, identified a few possible challenges in our project, and made sure to note them so the team could ensure a high-quality installation. During the inspection, the city building inspector was really impressed with the workmanship. He mentioned that the company had built the deck above and beyond the required standards. Another reviewer mentioned that "Foremost is the builder to work with for a low-stress, high-quality build." We definitely agree - you won't regret working with them."

"We hired Joel and his exceptional team to design the remodel of our kitchen and build our cabinets. They were very collaborative and patient with us as we continued to revise the plan until we found the design that worked best for us. We went from an enclosed 1990’s kitchen to an open concept with double islands. The cabinets well exceeded our expectations. They are stunning! Their attention to detail i in cabinet-making is first-class. The cabinet doors, drawer fronts and, trim are perfect. The custom-drawer inserts are spacious, clever and functioning. The whole team went above and beyond for us as we did our own contracting. They gave us lots of good advice and coaching along the way. We highly recommend them if you are looking for custom cabinets that are unique, functional and a work of arts"

"Just recently had a 48in x 48in egress window installed in our basement. The 2 gentlemen, Caleb & Graham were nothing short of awesome. I'm a retired carpenter and I can say their craftsmanship was second to none. Clean, precise. I was enjoying the perfect gape in our foundation and the framework even before they installed the window, because it was being done properly. Heck, even the hole they dug for the well was precise. Both Caleb & Graham were very friendly, communicative and courteous. Would use again and highly recommend."

"Jon did a nice job on the Kitchen Backsplash. He was always on time and listened to what we wanted done. He cleaned up everything very well after he completed the work and I could tell he cared about the work done. Easy to talk to and provided tips on maintenance of the tile. He was always very quick to respond when we sent him an e-mail. Would recommend."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

The best type of basement ventilation system depends on your budget, the moisture in your basement’s air, and the types of windows you have down there. You should consider all of these factors when choosing a ventilation system. However, the most effective method for basement ventilation is an energy recovery ventilator (ERV) or a whole-house ventilation system, which preheats or precools incoming air from the outside while also managing water vapor.

Finishing an unfinished basement adds the most value, with an average return of 70% or $22,400. A bathroom addition in the basement will provide an ROI of 75%, but the higher cost will leave you with a lower actual return of $9,000, on average. Finishing a basement and adding a kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom to rent the space will leave you with the highest possible ROI, as you could see well over 100% if you rent the space out long-term.

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.

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.

Anything having to do with the structure of your home, such as raising the ceiling, is usually the most expensive part of finishing a basement. Another project component that could be a surprisingly high expense is adding an exterior entrance. 

The cost of a walkout basement can be anywhere from $5,000 to $35,000.
