"From the second Kevin walked in for our estimate I could tell he was genuine and not trying to oversell or take advantage. Our project was a basement remodel for my mother who was moving in. The entire experience was wonderful, from start to finish. His team is amazing, super dedicated and we were involved in every step along the way. Kevin was always right there talking my mom through what she needed, helped her pick out her finishing touches, and even suggested we add/remove things from the remodel we would have never thought of doing on our own. He never once made us feel like we were asking too much and ANYTIME I had a question or concern he always got back to me same day. His work is top notch and his team is filled with the kindest group of men I have ever met. I didnt always make it easy, but they always delivered. We could not be more thrilled with the way things turned out, down to the last details, and would 100% call Kevin and his guys back for any future contracting needs."

"A master builder with broad array of knowledge. Articulate. Willing to discuss decisions. Seeks simpler, money saving solutions. Ingenuity was impressive. He follows through and sticks to his word. If he misjudges and the job entails extra time or materials, he does not change his fee. He also has accumulated wonderful sources of material, needed in my project. Bryan is very honest and merits trust"

"Joe and Chris exceeded all of our expectations with the job. The job consisted of having to remove the left side door frame and molding from our bathroom door which they took great care in doing thus minimizing any destruction of the plaster walls. They expertly installed the new frame and rehung the door perfectly. They also repaired out front exterior door which was out of plumb and not closing properly. And also replaced our exterior basement door. They also replaced a damaged tongue and groove knotty pine board in our stairwell leading to our upstairs bedroom. Joe and Chris explained everything they had to do to complete the jobs and Joes estimate was reasonable in price. They are both gentlemen with a professional attitude, friendly and easy to talk to about the work and a variety of other topics not related to the job at hand. I highly recommend them."

Customers say: Terrific value

"I hope everyone has the pleasure of working with someone as creative, hardworking, and honest as Jeffrey. We took a chance with Jeffery not knowing him before working together. Now he's the only person we would trust with projects for our home. It started with a simple design for a basement bedroom that turned into a whole downstairs remodel - he designed and build three closets, a staircase, a bedroom, and a gorgeous bathroom. He is much more than a contractor - he's a project manager and creative visionary. He shows up on time, stays on budget, and always has a smile on his face. He is the type of person who takes the time to find the piece of matching tile or the perfect wood color, and he makes sure to spend your budget as if it was his own. No matter what, you are in good hands with Jeffrey and his team."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Since DIYing a basement remodel isn't typically advised, there are some ways that you can still save money on this project without putting yourself in danger. Some ways to save money on a basement remodel include:

  • Painting walls yourself versus including in the cost of the remodel 

  • Installing light fixtures yourself

  • Choosing prefabricated fixtures, like cabinets, over custom ones

  • Choosing a budget-friendly flooring option, like laminate or vinyl flooring, and add rugs where necessary

Home improvements that increase value offer a high return on investment (ROI) and can enhance your quality of life. Upgrades to your home’s curb appeal often add the most value, with garage door replacement having one of the best ROIs at 93%. Other high-value exterior projects include replacing your front door, upgrading siding and roofing, installing a stone veneer, adding new windows, and landscaping. For interior renovations, a fresh coat of paint provides an excellent ROI. Major projects like a kitchen remodel or upgrading appliances and HVAC systems also add significant value, as potential buyers appreciate the peace of mind that new equipment provides.

Basements are commonly converted into game rooms. The potential challenges you may run into include controlling moisture, working with low ceilings, limited natural light, and the need for additional electrical or HVAC work. Addressing these issues can add to the total cost, but it ensures a comfortable and functional space.

The average cost to remodel a basement is between $12,100 and $33,400. Depending on the project's complexity, the price can be as low as $3,500 or exceed $50,200. For a simple project like adding a home office, you might spend between $500 and $3,000. However, a more extensive project, such as adding a bathroom, can range from $6,600 to $16,500. The final cost is influenced by factors like the basement's size and condition, the type of remodel, material choices, your location, and accessibility. For an accurate price, it's best to consult with a basement remodeling team.

Adding an extension or addition to your home costs more than a loft conversion in all but the rarest cases where the home's structural integrity is lacking. Because a home addition requires a new foundation section or significant structural upgrades to handle a cantilevered portion, the cost compared to almost any loft conversion is significantly greater for the same square footage.
