"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!

"Hire this company to fix my metal roof and metal chimney that was damaged when a tree fell on my house. Seth and crew came out for review of job and gave a good description of what needed to be done. When they came to do the actual work the ran into several problems. Seth took me through the issues they ran into and they work their best to finish the work without trying to just make the job easy for them. Seth had my money in mind when trying to fix the issue. Very pleased with results and would hire them again."

"My apologies to Jacent Storie for the lateness of this review. We hired Storie Construction last fall to do our annual pre-winter check on our roof, and to do any repairs he thought necessary. He was on time, very accommodating and took care of a couple items not included in our agreement at no extra charge. Jacent takes the time to explain what's needed, what he did and why. We would hire him again and recommend him as a general contractor."

"Justin, Scott, June and all the crew did a great job finishing the job (with huge challenges) start to finish! I was a very nervous client because of the aspects of an emerging site situation and I would not hesitate to recommend Kuhn's Construction to people needing a hard-working contractor on a tight timeline."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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

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.

Physically, the most challenging part of finishing a basement is installing egress windows or doors when the space is below ground level. Mentally, the hardest part may be envisioning the project and planning around load-bearing and mechanical obstacles.

If you have the woodworking experience to build a bar from scratch and you have the time, DIYing the work is a no-brainer and can save a few thousand dollars. However, if you’re looking to include a sink, additional lighting fixtures, or high-end bar tops and cabinets, it’s usually a better idea to call in a pro. It will cost more, but the finished product will likely be worth it.

The average cost of remodeling a basement is $30 to $75 per square foot. If your space is unfinished and looks like it may need more help, use the higher number when calculating your estimated basement remodeling costs. A good rule of thumb is to add an additional 20% to the top of your estimate to cover any “what if” situations.
