"We needed some work done in our basement and needed the work done quickly. Called Harvey and the work was done in 3 days and at a fair price. They remodeled our home in the poconos in less than one month and we get so many compliments from our renters. We will definitely use their services again. Thanks Harvey!"

"We had a great experience with the Lux Renovations and Owens Corning team. The whole process was very easy from designing the space, selecting colors, and having a contract manager who organized the entire basement remodel including all the trades and inspections. We were sold on the Owens Corning materials for the basement and that they were engineered specifically for a basement space. Would highly recommend this team for your basement remodel needs."

"Eddie and his crew did a great job on our full master bath remodel. We had it completely gutted and everything redone. I recommend them not only for the quality of work, but for the small things which set them apart from other contractors. The whole crew and all his subs worked extremely clean, they covered everything and cleaned up each day. All the workers were extremely nice and very respectful to us and our home and considerate to the fact we had a toddler running around. They have excellent attention to detail and did not cut any corners. Eddie gave us a lot of ideas through the whole process. We even had a snag at the very end with the tub fauceti bought not fitting, I was even willing to buy a new one to avoid any delays but Eddie and his plumber saw it through to the very end. The only critique I have is the communication was a little last minute sometimes. We wouldn't always know if they were working the next day until late the night before. Regardless I will be calling them for my next project and recommend you do also."

"Ben and his team did an amazing job renovating both of our bathrooms. Very professional, stayed very close to timeline, easy to communicate with and kept us up to date throughout each project. We had a few contractors come out - his team was by far the best choice for us. Andrew was here essentially daily and made the experience as low stress as a reno could be. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a bathroom reno / remodel!"

"Robert and his team did an outstanding job renovating my house. In addition to repairing the ceiling and installing new drywall, they installed new floors and touched up the paint on the walls. The results were amazing. Robert is so personable and very upfront with costs. Not to mention they got the job done in a very short time frame. Him and his team even went out of their way to haul away bulk waste that was on the job site prior to starting. Q&R was a complete pleasure to work with and I will be referring them to everyone in need of any type of renovations/construction. I highly recommend them for any type of project you need done."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with The Finish Guys for a basement remodeling project, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional, and I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone in need of a remodel. The team's punctuality and responsibility were outstanding. They consistently arrived on time, and their professionalism was evident throughout the project. I must also commend Matt, who was our main point of contact. His level of communication was top-notch. He kept us informed every step of the way and was quick to address any concerns or questions we had. Matt's dedication to ensuring our satisfaction was truly impressive. The quality of their work speaks for itself. The Finish Guys transformed our basement into a space that exceeded our expectations. Their attention to detail and craftsmanship are evident in every corner of the remodel."

Basement Remodel FAQs, answered by experts

Building a bar in the basement will likely add value to your home, although it’s unlikely that you’ll see a significant return on investment (ROI) unless you plan on using the space for you and your guests. If you think you’ll use the area frequently, though, it’s probably worth the investment, and you should see a bump in value if or when you sell your property.

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.

Kitchens and bathrooms are typically the most expensive rooms to renovate. The high cost is due to several factors, including expensive appliances like ranges, hoods, and refrigerators, as well as costly fixtures. The 'bones' of the room, such as electrical and plumbing, are also expensive to move or replace. Because of the vast amount of prep work, finishing, and specialized labor involved in a relatively small footprint, these projects can cost double or more than a living space remodel. Even when trying to renovate on a budget, kitchens and bathrooms will likely carry a hefty price tag.

If you’re not sure which method of raising the ceiling is best for you, here are a couple of considerations to help you make that decision. A professional ceiling company will be able to help you determine the best option for your home.

  • How long you are planning to live there: although raising the basement ceiling will increase the value of your home, if you’re planning to sell the house, then go for raising the house.

  • The condition of the foundation: to lower the floors, your foundation has to be intact whereas raising the house will allow you to restore the damaged 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.
