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 have to say, THIS is the only contractor I use. I couldn’t be happier with their work. I had a great experience working with John Sala Construction. John and his son Jay are absolutely incredible. They were just a pleasure to work with from the initial estimate through the final reveal. They are thorough, and clear with everything. They listened carefully to my needs and preferences and provided expert guidance throughout the process. When they were done they left my home clean and tidy. I highly recommend using John Sala Construction. Their craftsmanship and attention to detail in the finished space are truly impressive and worth every penny."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Rebar is an essential part of reinforcing a basement floor, as not having it can impact its structural integrity. It helps absorb the tension factors that contribute to cracks in your floor and strengthens its load-bearing capabilities by evenly distributing the weight. Not including rebar could lead to an unstable floor, so don’t skip it!

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.

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

You can paint your ceiling or install a drywall ceiling if the ceiling is unfinished, as they take up less headroom than drop ceilings. 

If there are pipes in the way of ceiling installation, you can do one of two things: reroute the pipes or adjust the installation to fit, which will cost extra.

The most challenging part of finishing a basement is addressing moisture control. Basement waterproofing is an essential task that requires a professional’s skills and knowledge. If you don’t properly waterproof your finished basement, it’ll be vulnerable to dampness, water damage, and mold growth. Ensuring proper insulation and ventilation to combat these issues while meeting building codes adds complexity to your remodeling project.
