"It went perfectly! We hired BAS to do a full remodel of our unfinished basement, and they did an amazing job. The results were beautiful, and they were pleasant and easy to work with along the way. They gave great advice during the intial estimate and planning, seamlessly took care of the permitting, and executed the construction flawlessly and on schedule. They will be our first call for any future renovation projects! Highly recommended"

"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."

"Mike Melia helped us remodel our powder room. He suggested places to buy toilet and faucets and installed those and our new sink, cabinet, light and ceramic tile floor. Price was more than reasonable and Mike’s near obsessive attention to detail really paid off. We get lots of compliments on the work."

"Ryan & his team were wonderful & our bathroom came out beautifully! Ryan was extremely informative and helpful, answering our countless questions both before and during the remodel job. He worked diligently for three weeks to bring new life to the space. The quotes were also incredibly affordable given the high quality of the work. We would 100% recommend Indigo & we look forward to working with them again very soon."

"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!"

"I worked with Prestige on a few, somewhat unique, projects recently, including renovating an old detached garage and fixing up my basement after a French drain/sump pump install. It was definitely a 5 star experience. Matt seemed more like a partner than a contractorâ ¦he brought creative solutions and ideas to the project, was transparent with updates and showing off milestones as they were completed, and even went the extra mile to ensure quality (example: he insisted that siding be sent back because it did not quite match the rest of the house). He also hooked me up with a custom side door for my EV charger cord that is going to make charging outside so much easier. I will definitely be hitting him / Prestige up again in the future."

"Cesar remodeled our basement, and we cannot be happier with his work! He worked with us the whole way to make sure we were happy with the work. He even put a custom wine rack in. The new basement is so beautiful and we get so many compliments. He has done work for us before and he does excellent work, is always available and easy to reach, and has a professional and kind team of workers. Thank you Cesar!!"

"Alex and his team did an excellent job remodeling our basement. He was very easy to work with and provided many suggestions. True professional and cares about the work his team is doing. Great customer service. I would recommend him without issue. Most contractors that i dealt with did not want to be bothered when I mention I wanted permits. Alex didn't mind working with permits. When my basement was approved by 3 township inspectors they all said what a great job he did! Thanks Alex and Team"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

When choosing materials for finishing basement walls, consider factors such as moisture resistance, durability, and fire resistance. Opt for materials specifically designed for basement environments, like moisture-resistant drywall or cement board. Insulation with vapor barriers can help regulate temperature and prevent condensation. Consider using mold-resistant paints or coatings. 

Research and consult with experts to select materials that are suitable for your specific basement conditions and intended use. Prioritize quality and compatibility to achieve long-lasting and aesthetically pleasing results.

Physically, the most challenging part of finishing a basement is installing egress windows or doors when the space is below ground level. Mentally, the hardest part may be envisioning the project and planning around load-bearing and mechanical obstacles.

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.

A walkout basement is considered to be partially below grade because at least one wall is entirely exposed. In some cases and in specific municipalities, inspectors and appraisers will still count walkout basements as below grade, which means the space can’t serve as living space or be rented out. If you intend on using the area as living space or a separate apartment, you should check with your local building department to make sure it’s legal to do so.

The cost of finishing a basement is about $18,400 on average. As you can see, the framing portion of this project costs less, because you’re essentially just dealing with laying the foundation for a finished basement. The finishing portion of the project involves a lot more intricate work and design, as well as high-end materials.
