"Also, Kohl Renovations built a 10x20 deck. It's gorgeous! We liked working with Brandon so well, we hired him to install lights and outlets throughout the basement. Very professional. Communicated extremely well. Asked all the right questions, so the job was done exactly like I hoped. I'm so happy with both jobs. I would highly recommend Kohl Renovations."

"Clayton and his crew were very professional. We had some major repairs to a historic home, and they did a great job of making things match. They completed the work they were hired to do and did a few extras along the way. The job was completed on schedule."

"I have had James do several jobs for me including repairing a kitchen floor and reinstalling the floor covering at one home and leveling and installing a new porch floor at another house. He always exceeded my expectations and did excellent work. I will certainly use him again in the future and would recommend his services."

"They were a little bit higher priced for us because of our upgraded retaining wall and poly carbonate cover. They were very knowledgeable, knew exactly the process, all the codes and answered all of our questions. They did an excellent job! The workers were really nice and gave great suggestions on how to complete the finishing work on the interior for my remodel. I will recommend and use them, again."

Hello, I am a recently retired educator and coach. I learned building trades from my father as a child and worked with him in construction for 8 years building houses from the ground up including plumbing, wiring, concrete, cabinetry, etc. from framing to finish. I have completed my own additions, remodeling, and repairs for the last 30 years. I'm a detail oriented perfectionist that enjoys working with my hands and providing a quality, reasonably priced service.

"This was a bathroom remodel; kitchen remodel is still in the planning stages. Bryan is acutely observant and came up with several ideas that were great improvements over mine. But I can't say enough about his crew! Outstanding! Quiet, courteous, respectful, enthusiastic, careful, and concerned about customer satisfaction. Top level skills. Our home is 72 years old and full of hidden surprises that can be very frustrating. Bryan and the crew faced the problems that arose with aplomb and confidence. Looking forward to the kitchen remodel!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Building a bar in the basement will likely add value to your home, although it’s unlikely that you’ll see a significant return on investment (ROI) unless you plan on using the space for you and your guests. If you think you’ll use the area frequently, though, it’s probably worth the investment, and you should see a bump in value if or when you sell your property.

It is generally more affordable to finish a basement than an attic, though it ultimately depends on how you plan to use the space. The average cost to finish a basement ranges from $7 to $23 per square foot, while attic renovation costs $30 to $60 per square foot. However, a simple attic conversion to a storage space will cost significantly less.

Yes, most general contractors require an initial down payment. A reasonable deposit is typically between 10% and 25% of the total project cost, although this can vary by project size and location. This upfront payment helps the contractor cover initial costs like materials, permits, licensing, and hiring subcontractors. The remaining balance is usually billed according to a schedule outlined in your contract, often tied to project milestones or completion dates. Be cautious of contractors who ask for a large deposit of 50% or more, as this could be a red flag for a scam.
