"Mike is fantastic. We had a leak in an outer wall that damaged our flooring and the wall. He repaired the leak, replaced the flooring, and installed new wainscoting that I had been wanting on the damaged wall. The quality of his work is top notch and he was so kind and easy to work with. 100% recommend."

"Ooommee LLC was great to work with. Danzy, the owner, was very personable. He was very helpful and understanding. My husband and I had a very strained budget, yet he did everything he could to work around that when no one else would even give it a shot. The basement was not an easy renovation by any means. He collaborated with other pros to get what needed to be done finished & done in the time frame we needed. By the end of this project Danzy felt like family to us. Thank you to all who helped complete this renovation for my family. We are truly grateful! 110% recommend Ooommee LLC for great affordable services for your home."

"Andrew did an excellent job on all of my trim and front porch repairs. He was reliable, payed a great deal of attention to detail, communicated well, and offered his services at a fair price. He also did an excellent job cleaning up at the end of each day. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with Andrew’s work and won’t hesitate to contact him for future repairs and remodels."

"Kell did a great job! He was on time and worked efficiently to get the job done. He cleaned up after the work was completed and even went above and beyond by taking care of the mess the leaking sink had left on the cabinet floor. I will be calling on Cransten handyman and remodeling for my future needs."

"Everything went very smoothly. The handyman (Jeremy) was on time and very skilled. Even though the sink was very heavy, he got it in place and installed very quickly. It looks spectacular!"

"Santiago arrived on time. He and his partner came ready to work after giving me an estimate. Two really nice guys who did a wonderful job installing 4 ceiling fans for me. It didn't take them long at all. They even cleaned ed up and took my empty boxes! I already have them in my book for more jobs in the near future. Thank you so much!!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Installing a bathroom in a basement isn’t a project for most homeowners. Many parts—plumbing, electricity, and carpentry—go into this project, each requiring expert-level knowledge and tools. One miscalculation can lead to very expensive repairs. Plus, some homeowner’s insurance might not pay for damages caused by a homeowner DIYing this project. You can protect yourself by allowing the pros to complete this job for you. 

Walkout basements are not generally included in a home’s square footage, although they may be if they meet certain conditions that depend on local regulations. A finished walkout basement used as a living space may be counted toward square footage in some locations as long as all codes for livable space are met.

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.

Key trends include home gyms, theatre rooms, additional rooms (bedroom/office), and more, with personalized styles reflecting individual preferences.

Basements with persistent moisture problems or flooding shouldn’t be finished until the moisture issues have been fixed. In addition, if your foundation is cracked, you have unmitigated radon levels, or you have asbestos or lead pipes, remediate the underlying problem before finishing your basement. Turning a basement into living space before fixing these issues can lead to serious health risks or structural damage.
