"A microburst slammed a tree branch into the siding of our home. Brian promptly ordered siding that matched our old siding perfectly. Installation didn’t take long either. End result looks fantastic! Brian has excellent communication skills too. Highly recommend!"

"Eric was extremely responsive. When we did the initial walk through, he was able to guide me with sensible suggestions that fit my needs and budget. He managed a project for the remodel of my 1930's home. In spite of me living out of state, he kept me informed through the entire process with pictures and updates. In addition, he was proactive when issues came up. He finished on time and within the budget. I would highly recommend him and his crew for any type of remodel small and large."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

A finished basement does not always count as square footage, though this varies by state regulations. You may live in an area that allows for below-grade spaces to be considered in a home's official square footage. In those cases, the basement must meet certain conditions, like having a functional egress and being a livable space with flooring, finished walls, and temperature control. Your local assessor can confirm your area's policies regarding basement square footage.

Save money on your basement finishing project by making cost-effective decisions such as minimizing structural changes and avoiding costly construction revisions. DIY simpler tasks such as painting or basic cleanup to reduce labor costs. You can also opt for energy-efficient fixtures and materials that may qualify for rebates or tax incentives.

The best type of basement ventilation system depends on your budget, the moisture in your basement’s air, and the types of windows you have down there. You should consider all of these factors when choosing a ventilation system. However, the most effective method for basement ventilation is an energy recovery ventilator (ERV) or a whole-house ventilation system, which preheats or precools incoming air from the outside while also managing water vapor.

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.

Efficient appliance positioning, optimizing existing plumbing, and sourcing energy-efficient materials reduce financial impact and increase sustainability.
