"Farzad has done a lot of major and minor updates to my home such as installing bathroom fans, light fixtures, venting my microwave outside and installing flooring. He found solutions to my water problem and stopped my garage and basement from flooding when it rains. He does excellent work and shows up on time. I would highly recommend him."

"I recently hired Zono Construction Services to replace and repair the vinyl siding on the upper halves of two sides of my two-story house that were torn off during a storm. From start to finish, the experience was outstanding. They provided me with a fair price and explained everything clearly. The team was prompt and professional and the entire job took two days to complete. I highly recommend Zono Construction Services to anyone needing siding repair or replacement."

"This was our first experience with major renovation/remodeling. MRM made the process nearly pain free working closely with us during the process and accommodating requested adjustments throughout. The team was timely, courteous and skilled. While the majority of subcontractors were great, a select few could improve their service. Without question will work with MRM on projects in the future"

"Asked for a quote on removing an old deck, replacing with a larger one. Price quoted was fair, and we accepted. We're very pleased with the final product, and the whole ordeal was hassle-free for me and my wife. Every worker involved was very professional. Communication from start to finish was excellent, and I feel the job was completed faster than we had expected. Will be using this company in the future for other projects."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Yes, most general contractors require an initial down payment. A reasonable deposit is typically between 10% and 25% of the total project cost, although this can vary by project size and location. This upfront payment helps the contractor cover initial costs like materials, permits, licensing, and hiring subcontractors. The remaining balance is usually billed according to a schedule outlined in your contract, often tied to project milestones or completion dates. Be cautious of contractors who ask for a large deposit of 50% or more, as this could be a red flag for a scam.

Permits may be required for major repairs, structural work, or electrical and plumbing restoration after a flood. Check with your local building department to determine permit requirements and associated fees for your flooded basement cleanup project. Obtaining the correct permits helps ensure work is done safely and up to code.

Walkout basements are not generally included in a home’s square footage, although they may be if they meet certain conditions that depend on local regulations. A finished walkout basement used as a living space may be counted toward square footage in some locations as long as all codes for livable space are met.

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.

Any bowing in a basement wall indicates a problem that needs to be addressed by a professional. If your basement wall bows more than 1 inch, it's time for an inspection. Generally, a wall can bow up to 30% of its thickness (around 2.5 inches for an 8-inch-thick wall) before it becomes an urgent situation. Bowing of 2 to 4 inches is more straightforward to fix than bowing of more than 4 inches, which will require significant repairs. If the bowing is more than 6 inches, the wall will likely need to be replaced. The sooner you address the problem, the easier and less expensive the repair will be.
