"The team with Gator Cut & Construct did a great job replacing the liner in our above ground pool. After working through some weather delays, they knocked it out. They are experienced and knowledgeable about the process. They took care of some unforseen issues below the pool before installing the new liner. It was a little more involved than originally thought but they addressed everything at a fair price. I would recommend them and will call them again for any pool maintenance needs. Thanks Matthew, I appreciate your help!"

"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!

"Not too good ! The workers were good . The owner Matt promised that the work would be completed in 2 weeks still not done as of today 01/13/2024 ,it has been one excuse after another on 11/22/24 needed to install the new shutters, he promised and gave his word and a hand shake , so we paid in full on 11/22/24 , cause we were going out of town for a bit , thought I was doing good but it has hit me hard , still not done as of today 1/13/24 . Numerous lies , he said we will get them this week , and was told on 4 ( Tex messages)different occasions that the shutters were either delivered or had picked them up . Also the main reason we went with a metal roof we had a roof leak and wanted it stopped it was on our back porch in the center of the back door , it leaks worse now than ever before , was also promised that it would be fixed (not fixed ).1 light fixture not fixed .asked for 6” gutters got 5” I am ok with the 5”gutters, and only got 6 down spouts asked and paid for 8 down spouts (have 8 points or the house , need 1 down spout per point .the siding looks good except the light fixture and outside water spicket should have new mounting blocks, they have the old ones still that do not match . ( 1 is broken 2 don’t have one ).2 places on the front porch needs to be fixed where it all should be wrapped in black metal it look bad. I don’t like being lied too and taken advantage of , all I wanted was to get this work done and not cut corners, for the money I paid it should have been done more professionally."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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. 

While bathrooms and kitchens are nearly equal in terms of renovation difficulty, kitchens are the most challenging. Kitchen design, layout, electrical, and plumbing needs all depend on each other for the success of the entire project, and mistakes early in the project can cause trouble later on.

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.

The average cost of remodeling a basement is $30 to $75 per square foot. If your space is unfinished and looks like it may need more help, use the higher number when calculating your estimated basement remodeling costs. A good rule of thumb is to add an additional 20% to the top of your estimate to cover any “what if” situations.

The time it takes to finish or remodel a basement can vary significantly, ranging from a few weeks to several months or even up to a year. On average, the construction phase can take four to eight weeks, but the total project time can extend to three or four months when including planning and permits. The timeline depends on several factors, including the basement's size, design complexity, the scope of the work, and your contractor's availability. A more detailed breakdown for an average-sized basement might include: framing (3-5 days), electrical and rough-in plumbing (3-5 days), drywall installation (5 days), flooring (2-3 days), and final touches like painting and trim (about a week). If preliminary work like installing a waterproofing system or addressing structural issues is needed, the timeline could extend to six to twelve months. Factors like difficult access, material transport, and ventilation needs can also add to the project's duration.
