"My wife and I were looking for a contractor to remodel our master bathroom. We were looking for someone that was knowledgeable, honest, fair in pricing, and great with communication. Victor from VAP Contracting was exactly that. Victor told us exactly when he would start, what he would need, and always answered any questions that we had. His team arrived every morning on time and was very polite. They were very neat and cleaned up each day and truly did an amazing job! Our new bathroom looks great. Victor stands behind his work and we look forward to working with them again on other projects that we have."

"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!"

"V&S did a fantastic job on our kitchen remodel project. They worked with us on the options, provided samples and delivered. They do terrific work, are super respectful of your home and your time. 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."

"LRL Designs drew the blueprint, designed my kitchen & 2 bathrooms and created a new entrance to my dining room, which created a much more open floor plan in my main floor. I love the way everything turned out and am very grateful for the professionalism and dedication from the designer. She was a pleasure to work with."

"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

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.

When considering finishing your basement, take into account a few pros and cons:

Pros

  • Can increase the value of your home

  • Separate space from the rest of the house 

  • Customize and personalize the basement to suit your needs and style

  • Increase the amount of living space in your home

Cons

  • May not regain enough value to cover the cost of finishing

  • Lack of natural light if it’s below ground level

  • Moisture or flooding can cause costly damage

  • Installing plumbing and electrical can be messy and costly

Professional remodelers streamline the process, manage permits, and handle renovations efficiently—significantly mitigating risk while maintaining standards.

Roughing in and connecting utilities are the hardest parts of finishing a basement, and they’re the parts we typically don’t recommend doing as a DIY project. Unfortunately, your finishing timeline can be extended by weeks while you wait for contractors and inspectors to install electrical wiring, plumbing lines, and heating/cooling equipment and carry out inspections.

Yes, you can add a kitchenette to a basement. However, you’ll have to consider the costs associated with basement kitchenettes. If you’re starting from scratch in an unfinished basement, you’ll need to account for brand-new plumbing, electrical, flooring, and more in addition to the cost of the kitchenette. If you’re putting a kitchenette in an already finished basement equipped with plumbing and electrical, you’ll save considerable money.
