Customers say: True professional

"Ryan is very responsive, but a lot of the details (trim, corners, clean up) in the the job were poorly done for the tiles and carpentry. There were some significant mistakes around executing the asked for design that ended up causing delays and costing more money. If you hire him, you should check his crew work routinely so mistakes can be corrected. He is really good at fixing the mistakes while the job is ongoing. Unfortunately, I have been finding things a month later and fixing them now would be cost prohibited."

"I can’t say enough good things about this company. I needed to get my stairs rebuilt as they were dangerous. They delivered. They were the fastest to get on the schedule, best price, and made very quick work of it. They also showed up when they said they would. Exceeded my expectations. Hire them. You will be pleased."

"I highly recommend this company. They were professional and so easy to work with. We talked briefly about our wants and then scheduled a time to do a walk through to review the job in detail. Nathan came prepared with paint samples in the color we thought we wanted. After the walk through we decided on a completely different shade of paint, Striving For Excellence was more than understanding and accommodating. Even after the change in paint color we had a few additional changes in wants, and Striving For Excellence worked diligently to meet all of our needs. Our schedule has been a little crazy lately and they accommodated the job completion around our schedule, which in some cases was after normal operating hours. The crew is more than professional, they are personable, that is hard to come by with companies. Upon arriving, Cameron, Nathan, Donivon, and Gavin professionally introduced themselves. All of our questions were answered and with their knowledge and expertise, they were able to easily navigate us through not only our needs, but our wants as well. They were prompt and cleaned up behind their selves. All employees were friendly, honest, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond our expectations. This is a company we highly recommend, and will continue to use in the future for all our needs."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

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

A finished basement does not always count as square footage, as this varies by state regulations. In areas that allow below-grade spaces to be included in a home's official square footage, the basement must typically meet certain conditions. These conditions often include having a functional egress and being a livable space with flooring, finished walls, and temperature control. To be certain, contact your local assessor to confirm your area's specific policies regarding basement square footage.

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.

Although homeowners often use the terms basement remodeling and basement finishing interchangeably, they are quite different terms. 

Finishing a basement is the process of taking a basement space that is not habitable and adding elements to make it usable. This includes adding plumbing, flooring, and insulation.

Remodeling a basement means taking an already existing finished basement and changing it, often by adding or removing walls, adding plumbing, or changing the existing flooring.
