"We love our basement remodel. Peter, Alex and his team were here when they said theyâ d be here, completed the job as described, and kept us updated along the way. The basement now looks and feels clean and bright. The additional space doesnâ t feel like a basement at all and is enjoyed by the whole family. We highly recommend Lux Renovations."

"I was looking to completely remodel two of my bathrooms (demolition job). I hired Belmax (Maksim) based on reviews and the estimate for the projects (i.e. $15K). I could not have been any happier with the work that Max and his guys performed. Max is very professional, detail oriented, and the quality of his work is EXCELLENT. Living in my house for over 15 years I have never been more satisfied with a contractor. He is very transparent and trustworthy, keeping me informed of any decisions/deviations from the original plan. The project took slightly longer than expected but not due to any fault of the company. There were some "unexpected issues" with the main bathroom that caused the project to take slightly longer. Max and his team was here every day working. There was very good communication and he kept me updated throughout the entire project. I was so impressed and happy with m bathrooms that I hired him for additional work in my dining room and will be reaching out to him next year when I am ready to remodel my basement. EXCELLENT JOB BELMAX!!"

"I hired Bryan to repair our basement drywall and tile after we had a French drain installed. Overall, I am very pleased with the work his crew did. I had some concerns during the project but Bryan was very easy to talk with. He explained what was going on and any worries I had were put at ease once I saw the final product. I think our basement looks even better now than it did before! I would definitely hire him to come back for future projects."

"The whole entire team did better than I could have imagined. What started as a mock up of a plan to redo my basement using Ai, turned into what you see in the pictures. Highly recommend."

"The best contractors to work with. I have used them at our medical office, home, and rental properties. They are professional, do quality work, at a reasonable price. Everything they have done for us has lead to people asking who renovated our office, who installed the wall paper, built our custom closets, and did a full kitchen and bathroom remodel. They work around your schedule to keep your business running, and clean up as if they were never there. They pay attention to the small details and make sure your vision comes to life. We never felt nickel and dimed for every little thing. The best part is they are great people who take pride in building relationships and doing quality work."

"The best experience I've ever had with a contractor. The owner, Isaias Caceres, provided expert advice on how to complete our project. His workers were highly skilled and courteous, cleaning the worksite at the end of each day. Our finished basement has never looked better than it does now, as a result of this work. This is a company that I'll hire again in a heartbeat."

"Carlos was excellent in his work and was able to meet all the expectations that we had for remodelling our bathroom. He has a very good eye for detail and was able to carry out all his tasks perfectly and on schedule. Carlos was also flexible and we could settle a schedule and idea for the bathroom very quickly. Carlos was also open to last minute changes on the schedule. As soon as renovations were underway, Carlos and his assistant worked very hard to make sure everything about the bathroom was perfect and without flaw. He even helped us with different suggestions for what could go in the bathroom helped us shop good deals. Before, during and after the work every day, Carlos would clean up the dirt and dust that was caused due to the remodelling. We would 100% recommend him and his team."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

You technically can paint wires in a basement ceiling, but there are several important safety and code considerations. It's safe to paint non-metallic sheathed cable as long as the labeling remains visible. You can also paint low-voltage wires and conduit and junction boxes to help them blend into your basement. 

However, you should not paint damaged or deteriorated wiring is a fire hazard because it poses a fire hazard. The same goes for painting over high-heat wires that connect to heat-generating appliances or systems. Be sure to avoid painting multiple coats onto any wires, as that traps heat and poses fire risks.

If you have the woodworking experience to build a bar from scratch and you have the time, DIYing the work is a no-brainer and can save a few thousand dollars. However, if you’re looking to include a sink, additional lighting fixtures, or high-end bar tops and cabinets, it’s usually a better idea to call in a pro. It will cost more, but the finished product will likely be worth it.

The difficulty of adding a basement to an existing house can vary depending on the house’s location, the size of the basement, and the type and condition of the existing foundation. Adding a basement is a job best handled by the pros, so you’ll need to enlist professional help for this project.

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.
