"I cannot say enough good things about these men! We are very pleased with the bathroom remodel they just did. They went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect paying attention to details most would not. I will continue to use them for all our future repairs and remodels, and you should also!!!"

"Tony came into our job to fix and finish a remodel of full kitchen, bath, mud room, dining room and siding that another contractor bitched up. I wish I had found him first as it would have save me a lot of stress and money. Tony and his crew were all very professional and came up with some really nice design ideas that really helped bring the entire project together. He is responsive when you reach out to him with questions which is very reassuring when you are going through any remodel. If you want someone that will get the job done right and they way you want it work with T&J Sheery"

"So happy we chose R&D for our exterior wall repairs! they were great to work with throughout the process of what turned out to be a complicated issue. Their communication was really appreciated as they dug into things and problem solved some unique issues with how the previous home owners had cut corners on the house. R&D wasn’t the cheapest initial bid we received but I have no doubt that we would have wound up paying more in the end for a lower quality result with anyone else. Thanks guys!"

"I hired Otter Creek Construction to do paint my house and to do some bathroom updates and window replacements at another house I own. The painting was done with precision, and close attention to detail such as caulking any spaces between the baseboards and walls, and making sure the holes in the walls were smoothly filled in. The lines between the walls and ceilings were clean and straight. I have had several paint jobs done in the past, and I rate this crew's results the best so far. The bathroom updates were done within one and a half days with no "down time" for use of the bathroom. The owner, David Bailey, went out of his way to find the exact vanity and counter top my daughter wanted; he selected the perfect faucet, shower curtain rod and toilet seat cover (he even found a self-closing cover with a built-in child seat for my young grandson!) The window replacements will be done when the special-order windows arrive in about another two weeks. This project is to replace and repair a botched window replacement done by the previous owners. Mr. Bailey quoted a much lower estimate than a previous estimate from another company for doing the same thing. Mr. Bailey and his two employees also did several "handyman" projects around the houses. He even came up with a solution to a "clothes hanging" in one of the basements for a very reasonable price. Overall, I would highly recommend Otter Creek Construction. They are professional, courteous, detail-oriented, and motivated to provide excellent service at a reasonable price."

"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!

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Save money on your basement finishing project by making cost-effective decisions such as minimizing structural changes and avoiding costly construction revisions. DIY simpler tasks such as painting or basic cleanup to reduce labor costs. You can also opt for energy-efficient fixtures and materials that may qualify for rebates or tax incentives.

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.

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.

It is generally more affordable to finish a basement than an attic, though it ultimately depends on how you plan to use the space. The average cost to finish a basement ranges from $7 to $23 per square foot, while attic renovation costs $30 to $60 per square foot. However, a simple attic conversion to a storage space will cost significantly less.

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.
