"I have hired this company for multiple projects over the last 2 years. Electrical, plumbing, bathroom remodel, widow installation and hooking up my propane stove. I will be a return customer each year until my projects at home are done lol. Doyle's Home Carpentry can do just about everything you need done and it gets done right the first time. If it is something he can't do or something that is not worth doing, he will tell you straight up. Very honest company and I do recommend using him for your projects!"

"We were thrilled with our contractor. He offered us many great ideas,ON TIME! Extremely knowledgeable and took the time to explain things. We had him completely gut the kitchen and install ceiling, walls, electrical, plumbing, floors, kitchen cabinets, countertops and appliances. We were so satisfied with his work that we asked him to move onto our bathroom with a soaker tub. The tiling was beautiful! Then again, we asked if he could gut, insulate and remodel the entrance room to the kitchen, again, beautiful. We finally had to part ways but I can tell you if there are other things to be done in this house( which there are!). We would hire him again! He is a very hard worker who likes to do the job correctly and very easy to talk to. I have hired contractors in the past that would never live up to his standards!"

"A&D property services made it clear and easy to inquire and book a service from general remodeling to pressure washing. They got me in within a couple of days and he called me ahead of time to give me a heads up on arrival time. Dan pressure washed my house and did a thorough and great job. He made sure to put everything back where it belonged. I recommend them for doing a good job while being easy to work and communicate with!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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. 

Lifting a house and adding a basement is one way to add usable square footage. Lifting or jacking a house is a complex process, and it can be expensive, not to mention that you won’t be able to live in your house while it’s lifted, due to safety concerns. Lifting a house should only be done by experienced professionals.

Unless you have extensive experience in construction work, remodeling a basement is best left to a professional. There are several tasks associated with this project that require exact precision, including:

  • Replacing insulation 

  • Replacing carpet or other flooring 

  • Adding heating and cooling

  • Adjusting or adding walls and doors

  • Altering or adding plumbing elements

If any of these elements is done incorrectly, it could severely impact the quality of your basement remodel and be dangerous. Changing a basement often comes with code safety requirements, like egress windows and proper ventilation. Therefore, leaving it up to a professional is often the best decision.

The time it takes to finish or remodel a basement can vary significantly, ranging from a few weeks to several months or even up to a year. On average, the construction phase can take four to eight weeks, but the total project time can extend to three or four months when including planning and permits. The timeline depends on several factors, including the basement's size, design complexity, the scope of the work, and your contractor's availability. A more detailed breakdown for an average-sized basement might include: framing (3-5 days), electrical and rough-in plumbing (3-5 days), drywall installation (5 days), flooring (2-3 days), and final touches like painting and trim (about a week). If preliminary work like installing a waterproofing system or addressing structural issues is needed, the timeline could extend to six to twelve months. Factors like difficult access, material transport, and ventilation needs can also add to the project's duration.

It’s less expensive to finish your basement than it is to build an addition to your home. The average cost to refinish a basement is $32,000 (between $7 and $23 per square foot) while building an addition to your home costs $50,325 ($80 to $210 per square foot). Depending on the size of your basement and other factors, like moving plumbing and electrical, refinishing a basement is a more cost-effective option in most cases.
