"Replaced roof, windows, and patio doors. Everything was done incredibly well. High quality materials. Expert craftsmanship. Our house is so much quieter and more comfortable. The windows look incredible, the roof is perfect. And along the way we learned more about our home, about what to look for, and why we had issues in the past. I would not hesitate to call again."

"I want to start out by saying Doug and his sons are very pleasant and their workmanship is good. It became obvious we took a back seat to another customer, whom he referred to as his “bread and butter”, and he withdrew his commitment to do extra work, that we had agreed upon early at the onset of the job. My “finished” basement was left unfinished, doors and window were not trimmed out, like was discussed. Every day they showed up at 9:30 and left at 3:30 with a lunch break, never put in a full days work. The clean up was poor. We had our ceiling painted black (a whole other story), and after sanding, my husband had to go through and clean EVERY board and duct work to clear the white dust from the sanding of the drywall, One wall was completely covered in dust and all walls had to be cleaned before painting, although Doug said he would leave it “paint ready”. There was drywall mud was on the floor and top of the drywall. Doug knew we were having flooring installed the following week, so the floor should have been cleaned of debris, not just swept. I am very happy with the framing and drywall, but UNHAPPY with the “finish”. I felt like I was filling a void in their work schedule so they were readily available to start the job, and the when more work came in, I took a back seat. The last day they rushed through and were gone by noon, when some of my extras could have been fit and more attention to detail could have been given. My husband has some repairs to do as a result of their haste. Also I had to pay additional for materials because of poor estimating."

"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!"

"Quality remodeling and construction provide sevice in a timely manner. I have contacted Mike 3 times for chimney removal and siding repair, decking, and to replace a chimney cap. Each time he came out within 24 hours to check things out and give me his assessment of what needs to be done. Then he let's me know when things can get taken care of and how long it will take. He has been spot on in reliability. I appreciate this diligence to providing service."

"Joe and his son transformed my kitchen into a dream come true, given what they had to work with I didn't think this would be possible. Joe pays very close attention to details giving me ideas I didn't even think of. He also accommodated all my add ons and with the spectacular work he does you can't help but to keep adding things on. His price is very reasonable and affordable. They are very efficient and leave your home clean and neat when they are done. I have more projects coming up and you best believe it will be Joe and his son on the job. I would recommend them for all renovation needs. They are truly the BEST!!!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

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

Basements are commonly converted into game rooms. The potential challenges you may run into include controlling moisture, working with low ceilings, limited natural light, and the need for additional electrical or HVAC work. Addressing these issues can add to the total cost, but it ensures a comfortable and functional space.

Some older homes have toilets in the basement to combat sewage backups. This type of toilet, also known as a Pittsburgh potty, acted as a safety valve over the incoming sewer line. If a line backed up, it would back up into the toilet because it was the lowest fixture in the home, keeping it out of sight and away from the finished areas of the house.

Basement toilets were also used by workers with messy jobs, like those who worked in coal mines or steel mills. This way, they could clean up and avoid tracking dirt through their home.

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.
