"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

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.

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.

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.

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.

Yes, you can add a door to your basement—it might even be required, depending on building codes in your area and whether or not you’re using the basement as a bedroom. A basement contractor can give you some advice on installation and help you add a door to your basement.
