"Everything went exceptionally well.  The job was done professionally and quickly.  He and his assistant kept at it til the job was done--I don't recall their even taking a break.  This was amazing since all the work was on the second floor and they both had to make innumerable trips up and down the stairs!!  He used the best equipment for the job and gave us a very reasonable price for all the work done.  Now our storage problems are solved, and we are very happy!  I would recommend Mr. Saylor to anyone for any kind of repair, remodeling, or whatever is needed.  He is honest and friendly and has the expertise to do whatever you need done.  We are very fortunate to have found him and his company to help us out and would not consider calling anyone else to do whatever we need done!

"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!

"I am a new home owner and I noticed some water damage in the corner of my basement.  Turns out the previous homeowner had the downspout dumping into the basement.  Fixed the downspot and no new water damage.  So I removed the drywall so that I ocyld replace it and found termites.  Stripped down all the drywall in basement  and had basement treated (see other review for termite treatment).  I called and received estimates for repair work.  Shannon was very prompt, friendly, and professional. He listened to what I wanted, and then described in detail how the repair would be made.  I had absolute confidence that he knew what he was doing.  Furthermore, when I check his proposed techniques out with online forums they were exactly what the pro recommended.  The only problem was the price was more than I was willing to pay for repairing the basement at this time.  I am going to slowly replace the insulation, re-do the wiring, and do the framing myself to save money.  Not sure how long that will take."

"We were remodeling the kitchen in our basement and needed countertops. I called around to several places and found the lowest price at East Tennessee Casework. They were able to explain to me exactly how I needed to measure to make the countertops come out right. I came in with my drawings and they made up the work order. Even though they usually deal directly with contractors, they were willing to explain the process to us as do-it-yourselfers and to take our order. They told us exactly what the price would be. We paid a small deposit when the order was placed, and they said the countertop would be ready in 2 weeks. They called us when it was ready and we went to pick it up. After we paid for it, a couple of guys helped load it into our van. The counters were cut to the sizes we specified and we were very satisfied with the results. They have a large range of colors and types of laminate for countertops, and samples are posted in their showroom area. The prices are lower than the big home center stores, and the service is just as fast or faster, although they do not take credit cards, so you need to be ready with cash or a check."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Rebar is an essential part of reinforcing a basement floor, as not having it can impact its structural integrity. It helps absorb the tension factors that contribute to cracks in your floor and strengthens its load-bearing capabilities by evenly distributing the weight. Not including rebar could lead to an unstable floor, so don’t skip it!

Roughing in and connecting utilities are the hardest parts of finishing a basement, and they’re the parts we typically don’t recommend doing as a DIY project. Unfortunately, your finishing timeline can be extended by weeks while you wait for contractors and inspectors to install electrical wiring, plumbing lines, and heating/cooling equipment and carry out inspections.

Yes, you can add a door to your basement—it might even be required, depending on building codes in your area and whether or not you’re using the basement as a bedroom. A basement contractor can give you some advice on installation and help you add a door to your basement.

Unless you have extensive experience in construction work, remodeling a basement is best left to a professional. There are several tasks associated with this project that require exact precision, including:

  • Replacing insulation 

  • Replacing carpet or other flooring 

  • Adding heating and cooling

  • Adjusting or adding walls and doors

  • Altering or adding plumbing elements

If any of these elements is done incorrectly, it could severely impact the quality of your basement remodel and be dangerous. Changing a basement often comes with code safety requirements, like egress windows and proper ventilation. Therefore, leaving it up to a professional is often the best decision.

When considering finishing your basement, take into account a few pros and cons:

Pros

  • Can increase the value of your home

  • Separate space from the rest of the house 

  • Customize and personalize the basement to suit your needs and style

  • Increase the amount of living space in your home

Cons

  • May not regain enough value to cover the cost of finishing

  • Lack of natural light if it’s below ground level

  • Moisture or flooding can cause costly damage

  • Installing plumbing and electrical can be messy and costly
