Customers say: Quick response

"Mario and his crew were very accommodating and the communication was better than expected from a construction crew that was working on my home for a month. Never had an issue with Mario responding to a question, even on the weekend. The work to finish my basement was solid and his attention to detail was very refreshing. I hit them with a couple of small changes (lights, sockets, re-positioned baseboard heater) and one larger one (banister) during the project and the crew got 'er done. I would recommend anyone having a basement or finishing project done to (at minimum) give Mario a call to see if his crew can help you enjoy your home even more."

I am someone who is trying to start a business. I’ve been in and around the construction industry for 20+ years, mainly doing commercial residential construction. I want to build something of my own where I feel my work can be noticed. I travel anywhere within the greater Rochester region. I look forward to meeting with you. Thank you

"MidCity Handyman and Remodeling installed tile flooring throughout our basement, and it is completely transformed the space! Their attention to detail with each tile placement was impressive. They worked quickly but did not sacrifice quality, making sure everything was level and beautifully aligned. We were so thrilled with the final look, and the durability is perfect for a high-traffic area like our basement. Highly recommend them for any tile work!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

A finished basement must have a heat and electrical supply with an entrance that meets building code requirements, such as a stairwell to the home's main living space. It often must include finished walls, ceilings, and floors. If the finished basement includes a bedroom, it should have a heat source, an egress window, and a closet.

Remodeling, as opposed to finishing, means altering an already finished basement by adding a bathroom, bedroom, or living area.

To determine if your basement walls are suitable for finishing, assess their structural integrity and moisture conditions. Look for any signs of damage, such as cracks, bowing, or excessive moisture. Ensure proper drainage and address any underlying issues before proceeding. 

Consult with a professional if you're uncertain about the structural stability or potential risks associated with finishing your basement walls.

Some older homes have toilets in the basement to combat sewage backups. This type of toilet, also known as a Pittsburgh potty, acted as a safety valve over the incoming sewer line. If a line backed up, it would back up into the toilet because it was the lowest fixture in the home, keeping it out of sight and away from the finished areas of the house.

Basement toilets were also used by workers with messy jobs, like those who worked in coal mines or steel mills. This way, they could clean up and avoid tracking dirt through their home.

Anything having to do with the structure of your home, such as raising the ceiling, is usually the most expensive part of finishing a basement. Another project component that could be a surprisingly high expense is adding an exterior entrance. 

The cost of a walkout basement can be anywhere from $5,000 to $35,000.

There are several small, inexpensive upgrades you can make to upgrade your basement. Although you still need to adhere to building codes and obtain permits when necessary, you can complete small but mighty tasks like painting the masonry walls and installing entertainment devices to make the space more usable.
