"Victor and his crew were great to work with. I had two bathrooms that were separate by a wall remodeled. After they were demolished both bathrooms down to the studs I decided (with input from the crew) to enlarge the master shower by taking space from the other bathroom. The crew is very courteous and knowledgeable. They cleaned up each night before they left. The bathrooms are beautiful. As the project went on I kept adding other tasks that I needed done around the house. They handled all great and at a fair price. I would (and have) use them again."

"We had our kitchen completely remodeled by Hire Her Home Improvement. Angela and her crew were very professional and responsive throughout the whole process. They were punctual, efficient, and always left the house clean when they left for the day. They were very respectful of our home. The job was completed on time and the kitchen came out beautiful! Angela was always available to answer any questions and always kept us updated. She is very knowledgeable, patient, and a pleasure to talk to. All the costs were clearly communicated and there were no surprises. I would highly recommend Hire Her for any home remodel or repair!"

Our project was a full gut of the kitchen and dining room - and they did it all. A truly refreshing combination of friendliness, professionalism and craftsmanship. Cleaning the work area after every single day of work was truly above and beyond."

"Edgar G. of E-G Works LLC did a *great* job on our basement including removing water-damaged paneling & replacing by drywall, fixing some wood trim, and painting everything. He was very responsive and if we wanted something done differently he would do it. The price was much less than another contractor's quote. He was able to start right away and got it done quickly and we are very happy with the results. We are hiring him for another project, replacing our front door and repairing its frame. We highly recommend E-G Works of Katonah, NY."

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.

A finished basement does not always count as square footage, as this varies by state regulations. In areas that allow below-grade spaces to be included in a home's official square footage, the basement must typically meet certain conditions. These conditions often include having a functional egress and being a livable space with flooring, finished walls, and temperature control. To be certain, contact your local assessor to confirm your area's specific policies regarding basement square footage.

Yes, in most cases, finishing a basement is worth the cost. The project adds valuable, usable square footage to your home and typically provides a return on investment (ROI) of 70% to 75%. For example, an average basement refinishing project costing $32,000 could add between $22,400 and $24,000 to your property's value. The final value added depends on factors like your location, the quality of materials and workmanship, and the features you include, such as a living space, bedroom, or bathroom. To be officially counted in your home's total square footage, the finished space must comply with all local building codes, including requirements for points of egress. However, in areas prone to flooding, a finished basement might be seen as a liability by potential buyers and could potentially decrease your home's value.

The best type of basement ventilation system depends on your budget, the moisture in your basement’s air, and the types of windows you have down there. You should consider all of these factors when choosing a ventilation system. However, the most effective method for basement ventilation is an energy recovery ventilator (ERV) or a whole-house ventilation system, which preheats or precools incoming air from the outside while also managing water vapor.

Although it’s not required, air ventilation in a finished basement can help improve the air quality, prevent moisture and mold issues, keep musty odors away, and also maintain the air quality throughout the rest of your home. Proper ventilation will help maintain the value of your investment in finishing your basement. Try basement ventilation methods like installing vents or a dehumidifier for best results.
