"John was really a pleasure to do business with. He took a challenging building project (a loft in a cabin with multiple roof angles) and turned it into a space that was even better than what we had imagined. John was very responsive throughout the project, answering all our questions in an easy-to-understand manner. Also, he came when he said he was going to come. He took care to ensure that both the structural and the aesthetic aspects of the remodel were sound and went "above and beyond" by building us a beautiful and unique railing using wood from our property. We would definitely hire him again for future projects."

"I hired this contractor to do a complete, full-house interior remodel based on several excellent reviews from prior customers, and he and his team exceeded all of our expectations. In addition to being highly skilled, he was professional, dependable, reasonable on costs, patient, and a pleasure to work with. Best of all, he and his team did excellent quality work. He also made a number of useful recommendations to enhance the overall look of our finished project. We consider ourselves lucky to have found HTR Interiors and would hire this contractor again without any hesitation. A real find in the interior remodeling field."

"Amanda was really very good!  At first I was very skeptical, thinking why did I pay money to just speak with someone on the phone about my kitchen remodel project... but after just a few minutes of her addressing some of the issues/questions I emailed to her earlier, I knew it was worth it.  It was very clear that she knew her business and she gave me several ideas that I had not even thought about.  I told her that I would definitely recommend her to friends and I will very likely use her again myself for my next home project!

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

Permits may be required for major repairs, structural work, or electrical and plumbing restoration after a flood. Check with your local building department to determine permit requirements and associated fees for your flooded basement cleanup project. Obtaining the correct permits helps ensure work is done safely and up to code.

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.

Adding an extension or addition to your home costs more than a loft conversion in all but the rarest cases where the home's structural integrity is lacking. Because a home addition requires a new foundation section or significant structural upgrades to handle a cantilevered portion, the cost compared to almost any loft conversion is significantly greater for the same square footage.

Yes, you can add a bathroom to an unfinished basement, but you’ll want to take proper precautions if doing so. As with any bathroom addition, you’ll need to make sure that it’s approved by local building authorities first. With unfinished basements, you especially need to keep an eye on proper ventilation practices.
