"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."

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

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.

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.

While bathrooms and kitchens are nearly equal in terms of renovation difficulty, kitchens are the most challenging. Kitchen design, layout, electrical, and plumbing needs all depend on each other for the success of the entire project, and mistakes early in the project can cause trouble later on.

Common mistakes when finishing basement walls include neglecting proper insulation, insufficient moisture management, and poor ventilation. Not addressing these issues can lead to mold growth, water damage, and discomfort. Additionally, inadequate planning, improper framing, and rushing the project can result in subpar outcomes. 

It's essential to follow best practices, seek professional guidance if needed, and prioritize thoroughness and attention to detail.

Basements are commonly converted into game rooms. The potential challenges you may run into include controlling moisture, working with low ceilings, limited natural light, and the need for additional electrical or HVAC work. Addressing these issues can add to the total cost, but it ensures a comfortable and functional space.
