"First and foremost, it was important that the project was to be finished by a certain date; The builder met the deadline.
He and his crew were respectful, professional and detail oriented. the project required specified architectural details not often seen in new housing. One challenge was the matching of the exterior with the original structure, a challenge they met superbly. The builder also found solutions for unusual structural challenges such as a hidden steel support beam and an unusual roof structure."

"Fred Katz, the owner of JFK Construction responded promptly to my request for a proposal.  He took the time to listen to our plans for the project and added several suggestions to improve the design and facilitate the construction process. His price was slightly higher than the other two proposals we received but we selected JFK based on several factors.  These included 1) his estimated time for completion to be 2-3 weeks, 2) the fact that the project would be permitted and inspected, and also, 3) that JFK had previously performed reasonably well in the remodeling of our kitchen.
Once, we signed the contract Fred and his employees were on site within a few days to begin the work and he and his men repaired the exterior siding and removed and replaced the deck within a couple of weeks as planned.  This repair work and the new deck look great and we are very pleased with the outcome in this area. The problems began with the introduction of his sub contractors who were responsible for the electrical, plumbing, gas and masonry work.  It is understandable that contractors are simultaneously working on several projects and our project can not always be their top priority.  However, the repeated delays we have experienced indicate that either the subs have too many project in-process or our project is so small that it slips off their radar and goes unnoticed.
We signed the contract with JFK on October 5, 2013 and as of today November 9, 2013 the project is still not complete.  The subs responsible for the gas and masonry haven't completed their work.  In fact this past week of Nov. 4 through Nov. 8 no one from either JFK or any of his subs were onsite working on our project.  When asked about the project yesterday Fred expressed frustration that his subs were not able to complete our project but could not commit to a specific date when they would return to finish the job.
The project was completed on Dec. 20, 2013 and we are very pleased with the final outcome.  Weather was one factor in some of the delays.

"I hired KP Builders for my two story addition. Alpesh built an office room and media room down and upstairs. The finish was perfect that was appreciated by everybody who visited my house. He gave me lot of creative and very useful ideas to make most use of the space. He took care of the permits, quality material and kept me posted on the plan and stayed on top all the time. I would highly recommend his services to anyone."

"The project went great!!! Hayden the general contractor was wonderful. He updated me each and every step of the process and always kept true to his word on cost, timeframe, and etc. I always felt I was in good and trustworthy hands as he and his team worked on each aspect of my garage conversion. He made sure each inspector who came for each area, mechanical, electrical, framing, insulation, and final were all handled efficiently and each one passed on the first try and I was even told by the inspector that they wished every inspection they did went as smoothly. If you need any project done, I highly recommend H&P general contracting. I will do any and all future home projects through Hayden and his company going forward. He definitely gets a 100 star rating from me."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Some older homes have toilets in the basement to combat sewage backups. This type of toilet, also known as a Pittsburgh potty, acted as a safety valve over the incoming sewer line. If a line backed up, it would back up into the toilet because it was the lowest fixture in the home, keeping it out of sight and away from the finished areas of the house.

Basement toilets were also used by workers with messy jobs, like those who worked in coal mines or steel mills. This way, they could clean up and avoid tracking dirt through their home.

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.

For most basement remodels, you’ll want to hire a general contractor. This is for a number of reasons, but the main two are that general contractors have dedicated teams they are comfortable with, and hiring one means you only have to deal with one pro. You may also get a better project quote since they can lump all their work and subcontracting into a single quote. 

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. 

Renovation enhances functionality, increases home value, and can add new space for personal or family needs. It typically modernizes older unfinished basements for new uses.
