"I was able to give the gentleman that came over instructions as to what Iwanted done, moving a lot of heavy things in the basement and and re-organizing items I could not move and he was able to do it well. I was actually able to go upstairs and take care of things without having to sit and watch him to make sure he did the work correctly. I was very happy with the work."

"In early April 2025, my wife and I purchased a home in Cochecton, NY. Although, it was in immediate move in condition, as always, there an issue that needs to be taken care of. For one of those issues, we reached out to Angi’s list, in in about 30 seconds, we received a call from Wilson Gomez, and in about 45 seconds, he was in our basement. We discussed the issue at hand, and to our surprise, Wilson thought it was not an issue, hence, he was about to leave, obviously without a job. We then asked him about the basement floor, which was then all concrete. What happened next was a conversion, from just a regular concrete floor to a beautiful, laminated floor, plus the encasement of our boiler system, and HVAC. This job was done over a span of two days. And we overly satisfied, with the entire project. We then had him construct an outdoor vegetable garden structure, to protect our potential vegetables from the neighborhood deer’s. Wilson deserves a "AAA", rating."

"Overall I was very happy with Frank and his team from GMZ Contracting. They showed up when they were supposed to, were friendly and respectful and did beautiful work. They installed knotty pine in my bedroom and did the flooring for the upstairs bedroom."

"I hired Robert to remodel a bathroom and replaced 9 doors, they did the work, was neat an clean, my front door will not stay open, did not finish base board molding in living room, I paid him because we trusted him, I have been trying since April 2020 to get him back to complete the work and I can not get him back. Update: Since this was written he did come back but due to Covid we're looking forward to getting this complete May 2021."

"It is rare when you find somebody so honest. I was incapacitated and could not access my basement. I believe that I had a bad pressure tank. Flexible Plumbing came to my house, told them what I thought I needed...they came back in two minutes, ask me to check the water and it worked. He informed there was an obstruction to contacts on the pump. He was in a position to charge me a lot of money, could of very easily charged me up to $1000 for a new pressure tank. Then he was nice to inform me there was no charge,"

Basement Remodel FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, most general contractors require an initial down payment, typically between 10% and 25% of the total project cost. This upfront payment helps cover the costs of materials, permits, and subcontractors. The remaining project costs are usually billed after specific project milestones are reached or on set completion dates, as outlined in your contract. Be wary of contractors who require a significant deposit of 50% or more upfront, as this could be a red flag for a scam.

Common mistakes when finishing basement walls include neglecting proper insulation, insufficient moisture management, and poor ventilation. Not addressing these issues can lead to mold growth, water damage, and discomfort. Additionally, inadequate planning, improper framing, and rushing the project can result in subpar outcomes. 

It's essential to follow best practices, seek professional guidance if needed, and prioritize thoroughness and attention to detail.

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.

Since DIYing a basement remodel isn't typically advised, there are some ways that you can still save money on this project without putting yourself in danger. Some ways to save money on a basement remodel include:

  • Painting walls yourself versus including in the cost of the remodel 

  • Installing light fixtures yourself

  • Choosing prefabricated fixtures, like cabinets, over custom ones

  • Choosing a budget-friendly flooring option, like laminate or vinyl flooring, and add rugs where necessary

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.
