"Jesse did a great job installing the under cabinet lighting I got my wife as a present. He installed the new LED under kitchen cabinet lights which included installtion of the low voltage transformer/converter and light switch/dimmer. His experience was evident with his selection of dimmer switch location and optimum running of wiring to cover both sides of the kitchen cabinets."

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."

"I can’t say enough good things about John Sala Construction. This is not the first time they have done work for me and I have always been happy. Quality of work is incredible, communication is great and they are so easy to work with. My husband and I built an apartment onto our house with a basement underneath it. Everything proceeded in a timely manor and John always took time to answer my questions. I HIGHLY recommend them."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.

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

Living in a finished basement is acceptable, but only if the space has the proper points of egress and includes smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) detectors to ensure the safety of the occupants. A good way to ensure your finished basement is suitable for use as living space is to get the basement finishing project properly permitted.

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.

Basements with persistent moisture problems or flooding shouldn’t be finished until the moisture issues have been fixed. In addition, if your foundation is cracked, you have unmitigated radon levels, or you have asbestos or lead pipes, remediate the underlying problem before finishing your basement. Turning a basement into living space before fixing these issues can lead to serious health risks or structural damage.
