"I am so happy with the job J. Millett has done on our bathroom remodel. He has taken special attention to every detail I want to be just right. His crew has always shown up on time, they've been very courteous, and kept the work area and walking in an out of the house clean and protected from messes and debris. Everyone has been friendly and very knowledgeable at their job position. Everything happened in a timely manner and the end result is better than I imagined. I referred J. Millett to my parents for their future remodels and will continue to refer him to anyone I hear looking for a top notch contractor. I am beyond pleased with the job he has done. And he's such a great guy to top it off. Its been a joy working with him and his crew. My kids have enjoyed watching the guys working and they have all been great at explaining to my 5 year what and why they are doing it and what each tool is for. Remodels can be stressful, but my experience was anything but that. It was really great to see the end outcome, it turned out beautiful! And it was a joy working with Joe and his crew. I highly recommend J. Millett Construction."

"Michael came out to review the project within a few hours of my being connected by telephone to him by "Home Advisor". He started on the job the next day. I appreciated the fact that Michael always picked up my call when I needed to ask a quick question (I was 700 miles away towards the end of the project) The sub flooring in a bathroom was replaced and new carpet and wood flooring installed throughout the house. It looks great. Last but not least- his bill was very reasonable. I would definitely recommend "Mr Honeydo""

"Overall, we are very pleased with Curtis Bros. The suppliers they recommended were a tremendous assist and invaluable in getting exactly what we wanted. Personnel arrived every day as scheduled and on time. Great care was taken to minimize dust, debris, and maintain non-construction areas. Personnel were friendly, courteous, and asked for our input whenever a question or concern arose. Finished product looks fantastic! Advice for folks looking to remodel: 1 - Price out materials ahead of time. 2 - Allow an appropriate amount of time to complete the job."

"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!

"Troy was on time to look at job. Spent time going over what he could do to help remodel a bathroom. He explained only the part of the job he could do and I would need to hire others to complete the total work being done such as a plumber and tile person. I was moving a shower, making it bigger, having it tiled and then a cabinet made for the old shower area. He had ideas about what to do and it made sense to us.
He was prompt and on time for meeting. He was a real nice guy and was coming from Carson to do the job in Reno.
Our main concern was that after this original visit, I got one call that he was busy and could not get the estimate done in a timely matter and that he would do it the following week.
I never got an estimate or even another phone call. It has been 3 months with no contact and I hired another person to do the job.
A phone call would have been better than nothing. By waiting for his call and no response to email it delayed my job by months.

Basement Remodel FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, adding a walkout basement will usually bump up your property value. Most homeowners prefer walk out basements because the exposed wall that’s level with the ground provides more utility via a ground-level exterior entrance, and they can fit full windows, which adds natural light and ventilation to the basement area. The only exception might be in areas prone to tornadoes, as walkout basements aren’t as safe as regular basements during a tornado, particularly if they include large windows or glass sliding doors.

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.

Yes, it is possible to turn a regular basement into a walkout basement. Doing so involves excavating the land around at least one side of your basement foundation, installing retaining walls to create a permanent below-grade area outside your home, and then cutting into the foundation to install an exterior door that leads out to the new space. This is an expensive and time-consuming project, but it can add a lot of value and utility to your home.

Create a checklist, reimagine the space use, set a realistic budget, choose materials and aesthetic details, and get professional support for guidelines and troubleshooting.

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.
