Savage Painting originated in upstate New York as a female owned and family operated painting company. We realized early on that spreading paint smoothly and evenly was only a portion of our job. Correcting minor issues became a trademark for our company.

"Excellent work. Meticulous cleanup. Fair price. Finished ahead of planned deadline. Wonderful experience!"

We are a detail-focussed small service & repair business catering to the needs of our customers 24/7. Service Calls and small repairs are done at standard Labor & Materials invoicing. Larger projects such as rewiring, remodels, deck construction, are done with a fixed-price contract and all elements calculated via a site visit with owner for a total price thereafter. Local area estimates are free, but a nominal charge is required for out-of-area estimate requests to offset fuel & maintenance costs for business vehicle plus nonproductive time lost ( I credit customer this if we are hired to do a job). I DO NOT subcontract as a rule but do have a couple highly skilled tradespeople who work independently and cover additional needs for my business as I need them, such as A/C system charging, etc. We have 100% satisfaction with our customer base and I guarantee all work 100% for 1 year after it is done (labor & materials)! Examples of our clientele are the average residential homeowner to medical offices to single professionals to retirement communities to legal system professionals to major retailer stores in Malls. We have a diverse portfolio of clients and all are treated the same way building trust by our work ethic, integrity and professional character we put forth on any job. We work VERY clean respecting all properties. Please check my LinkedIn business profile as well: https://www.linkedin.com/in/steve-lackovic-45761b91/

We have been in business since 1993. We have and still do rely on our reputation to keep this business operating. We give free estimates with a itemized proposal. We request material money at start and payment upon completion and satisfaction. Thank you, Chip Miller

"After a lot of research, we hired Mr. Miller to build a covered porch to replace our old deck. We basically handed him a picture we'd found, discussed a few changes with him, and he produced the most beautiful porch we could imagine. He was very professional, congenial, kind, and an amazing builder. Everything was cleaned up after the building was completed. Even with lots of weather issues, we had our porch ready in time for our grandsons visit shortly before Christmas. We really love this porch and plan to use it all the time!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Since DIYing a basement remodel isn't typically advised, there are some ways that you can still save money on this project without putting yourself in danger. Some ways to save money on a basement remodel include:

  • Painting walls yourself versus including in the cost of the remodel 

  • Installing light fixtures yourself

  • Choosing prefabricated fixtures, like cabinets, over custom ones

  • Choosing a budget-friendly flooring option, like laminate or vinyl flooring, and add rugs where necessary

Yes, finishing a basement is worth the money in most cases. Although the project is a relatively expensive one, finishing a basement adds usable square footage to your home and typically increases your home value. Many times, your finished basement will add value that’s equal to or greater than the cost of finishing.

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.

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.

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.
