"I recently had the pleasure of working with Jim and his team at Exterior Home Solutions of Fayetteville for the installation of new doors, and I couldn't be more impressed. From the initial consultation to the final installation, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to every detail. They guided me through the selection process and also expertly navigated the financing options, ensuring that the payment for each project fit my budget perfectly. The installation was seamless, completed on time and with impeccable craftsmanship. The team left my space clean and tidy, and the doors have truly transformed the look of my home. I’m already planning future projects with them, as I trust their expertise and commitment to quality. I highly recommend Exterior Home Solutions of Fayetteville for anyone looking to enhance their home. Their exceptional service and dedication to customer satisfaction truly set them apart.

"

We had a minor leak in my bedroom closet. He went into the attic and could not see where the leak was coming from. He looked for the leak from the roof as well and he let me know that my roof should have about 7 years left in it. He was on time and polite but only at my home for about 15 minutes.

"John installed an exterior door for my elderly mother who has dementia. Not only did he do a fabulous job for a fair price, but he was patient and understanding while working in her home. He won her over and that’s not an easy job. I will definitely call him in the future."

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.

Common mistakes when finishing basement walls include neglecting proper insulation, insufficient moisture management, and poor ventilation. Not addressing these issues can lead to mold growth, water damage, and discomfort. Additionally, inadequate planning, improper framing, and rushing the project can result in subpar outcomes. 

It's essential to follow best practices, seek professional guidance if needed, and prioritize thoroughness and attention to detail.

Living in a finished basement is acceptable, but only if the space has the proper points of egress and includes smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) detectors to ensure the safety of the occupants. A good way to ensure your finished basement is suitable for use as living space is to get the basement finishing project properly permitted.

You should plan on waiting at least a year and ideally two to three years after construction before finishing your basement. This will give the foundation time to settle in response to the weight of your home and the expansion of the surrounding soil. You can then repair your foundation and seal any cracks as needed before finishing it to reduce your risk of future leaks or other issues.

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
