"So happy we chose R&D for our exterior wall repairs! they were great to work with throughout the process of what turned out to be a complicated issue. Their communication was really appreciated as they dug into things and problem solved some unique issues with how the previous home owners had cut corners on the house. R&D wasn’t the cheapest initial bid we received but I have no doubt that we would have wound up paying more in the end for a lower quality result with anyone else. Thanks guys!"

"We did a split project with Kurt and his team. We had a mother-in-law suite and we wanted to turn it into a full size bedroom with half bath instead since we are expecting our second child. They were recommended to us from a friend and I couldn't have been happier. To start, they were able to beat the price of another contracting group in the area by a pretty decent bit, and on top of that, were willing to do more as well. I demo'd the wall, but they took over after that. They moved all of the wall positions and rebuilt the walls to make the smaller bathroom and bigger bedroom. The drywall job was fantastic. John (or Jon) was the one who handled most of that. He hung the walls and smoothed out the mud. He was absolutely meticulous about it too. I haven't seen a smoother drywall job thus far. Kurt also tiled the bathroom which looks fantastic. Level as can be and the grout-lines are perfect. They installed the toilet (which I actually said I would do) as well as the vanity. When they ran electric through, they set me up with a line attached to a switch for a vanity light in case I wanted one and kept it behind the wall marked and ready for me. There are little details like that that make all the difference in there work, prepping for the future and making sure things will last. They left me a nice access hatch to the ceiling and made a nice molding for it which was an awesome addition for when I need to get up there. We said we would paint the rooms, but they wanted to at least prime them, and I'm very happy they did. They fixed a cracking ceiling and re-painted the whole thing too which is an amazing improvement over before. Overall, we aren't unhappy about a single thing. Kurt has been very responsive after-the-job about just questions on general things and that just shows the work ethics and quality of he and his group. Would I recommend them? Absolutely, without a doubt in my mind. Will I use them again? We already have asked and have two more projects for them later this year. If you have a project, HIRE THESE GUYS!"

FAQs for basement remodel projects in Middlesex, NY

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 cost to finish a basement is $18,400 for the average homeowner. However, this cost could be as little as $2,800 or as much as $34,500, depending on the basement size and the materials needed. If your basement is already outfitted with electrical and plumbing, expect the cost to fall on the lower end. 

For example, the drywall cost for this project averages around $1,750, but other features, like hiring a plumber, cost between $45 and $200 per hour.

The cost to remodel a basement is between $12,100 and $33,400 for the average homeowner. The price you pay can be as little as $3,500 or as much as $50,200, depending on the size and condition of your basement and the type of remodel you're doing. 

If you're doing a simple project like adding a home office to your basement, you can expect to pay anywhere from $500 to $3,000. However, if you're adding a bathroom, which is an extensive project, you can expect to pay between $6,600 to $16,500.

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

Although homeowners often use the terms basement remodeling and basement finishing interchangeably, they are quite different terms. 

Finishing a basement is the process of taking a basement space that is not habitable and adding elements to make it usable. This includes adding plumbing, flooring, and insulation.

Remodeling a basement means taking an already existing finished basement and changing it, often by adding or removing walls, adding plumbing, or changing the existing flooring.
