"They were easy to work with and the job came out great. After the basement remodel, we had them back to install bathroom and other cabinets. All went well, even with a different crew. Dave knows how to guide the customer to make good choices. Company is very dependable and prices are reasonable/competitive."

"If you are in need of a professional with vision and integrity, Robert is the only one to hire. After a basement flood, we interviewed 3 other companies, all of whom wanted an exorbitant amount for the project and also wanted to charge for a written estimate. Reliable, knowledgeable on all matters of construction, mindful my budget and a true professional. His work is meticulous and he leaves your home spotless every day. I got lucky and so will you!"

"I hired Long Island handyman construction group to remodel a 400sf basement and bathroom in Melville. They were priced in the middle compared to other bids. I picked them thanks to their out of the box advice which saved me thousands of dollars. There was one problem with the plumbing which cost an extra 1800 dollars. The owner settled with me 50/50 even though it was a pre-existing issue. The project was started early and completed early. All mess was cleaned up and the crew was very friendly and fully aware. Very reputable guys and very easy to deal with. Thanks Moises and Eddy."

"Working with Tom and his crew was a fantastic experience. He and his crew finished my basement and installed new flooring on the main level in just a few weeks. We were given progress updates everyday. We would definitely use Summit again!"

"From start to finish everything was easy. Bob walked us through a plan to completely renovate our kitchen, living room, bedrooms, basement and bathroom. Nothing had been updated since 1975 and now everything is brand new. They worked fast and efficient. Will be bringing them back in the spring for more updates on the outside of the house. Nice to have someone give you their word and then follow through even better than we imagined."

"Yet another great experience working with Nunez Construction. (You can see my earlier reviews, dating back to 2013). Nunez and his team renovated my full bathroom beautifully. It took approximately 9 business days to complete. The work is top quality and, as always, Nunez went beyond and above. The bathroom looks beautiful and his team comprises very respectful and hard workers."

"Great! It turned out beautifully. I wouldn't have anyone else do my construction work. They are simply the best! It's really nice to see the owner of the company working side by side with his crews. He cares and he is honest and provides the highest quality of work. And they won't try to charge you for stuff you don't actually need. I already plan to hire him again in the future. I would highly recommend this company to ANYONE!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Yes, most general contractors require an initial down payment, typically between 10% and 25% of the total project cost. This upfront payment helps cover the costs of materials, permits, and subcontractors. The remaining project costs are usually billed after specific project milestones are reached or on set completion dates, as outlined in your contract. Be wary of contractors who require a significant deposit of 50% or more upfront, as this could be a red flag for a scam.

Renovation enhances functionality, increases home value, and can add new space for personal or family needs. It typically modernizes older unfinished basements for new uses.

A finished basement does not always count as square footage, as this varies by state regulations. In areas that allow below-grade spaces to be included in a home's official square footage, the basement must typically meet certain conditions. These conditions often include having a functional egress and being a livable space with flooring, finished walls, and temperature control. To be certain, contact your local assessor to confirm your area's specific policies regarding basement square footage.

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.

Yes, you can install a summer kitchen or kitchenette in your basement. They serve similar purposes as outdoor kitchens, keeping the main floor of the house cool and providing another space to cook and congregate. Basement kitchens are also a worthwhile alternative for homeowners without much space in the backyard. They come with a few logistical questions to sort out, though, like ventilation and waterproofing.
