"Lilco was a great company to work with! They are easy to communicate with and answered all of my questions and concerns. They are reliable and trustworthy. My kitchen and bathroom came out better than I could have imagined. I couldn’t be happier and hope to be able to remodel my other bathroom in the near future."

"We recently had a complete kitchen renovation and main floor remodel done at my parents' home, and I can’t express how pleased we are with the results. From the very start, William and Miguel made the entire process a dream. William was simply exceptional to work with. He went above and beyond to make sure we were happy every step of the way. Not only was he incredibly helpful, professional, and available at all times, but he also took the time to accompany us to the store to help select the best products, tiling, and appliances—all while keeping us within budget. His advice was spot-on, and his eye for detail was invaluable. Throughout the project, he provided regular updates and checked in frequently to ensure we were comfortable with the progress. One of the biggest challenges was navigating the different perspectives of not only my parents but also myself and my three sisters, all of whom were involved in the decision-making. William handled it all with patience, diplomacy, and a calming presence, making sure everyone was heard and at ease. His guidance was steady and reassuring as he led us through the process with a professionalism that truly impressed us. William has clearly put in the effort to build a top-notch team. He surrounds himself with respectful, hardworking individuals who value trust, honesty, and family as much as he does. It's clear that he genuinely cares about creating bonds with his clients and helping them transform their homes—and their lives. Miguel, the man behind the magic, went above and beyond at every turn. His craftsmanship is excellent—truly top-notch. He was kind, dedicated, and worked tirelessly to get things just right. He arrived early, stayed late, and even came on Saturdays. Despite the language barrier, he used Google Translate skillfully to ensure we were always on the same page. Throughout the project, he kept us informed and even handled extra fixes at no additional cost. It was clear he took great pride in his work, and his attention to detail showed in every aspect of the renovation. By the end, we genuinely felt like we had made new friends in William and Miguel. They did a fantastic job bringing our 1930s house—never before renovated—into a modern and beautiful state. They tackled everything from a complete kitchen demo down to the framing: new insulation, ceilings, floors, walls, appliances, cabinets, a partial wall removal to make room for a gorgeous kitchen island with pendant lighting, and the meticulous restoration of the original hardwood floors. They even went above and beyond after the project was finished, coming back to help us set up exterior security cameras. Their recommendations were spot-on, and they always had an eye for aesthetics while staying within our budget. We couldn't be happier with the transformation they've achieved, and I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone considering a home renovation. Thank you, William and Miguel, for your hard work, kindness, and professionalism. You made what could have been a stressful project a truly enjoyable experience."
This was a larger bathroom with two accent walls, a tub and sauna shower with jetted shower heads, a custom-cut ceiling, heated pebble flooring, and a mini wooden walkway.
The client wanted a tub sitting on pebble stones with an accent wall, wooden look custom shelving, and a smart floating toilet.
The image showcases a contemporary stand-up shower featuring frameless glass doors that provide a seamless, open look. The interior is adorned with large marble tiles in a soft, neutral tone, giving the shower a luxurious feel.

Built-in niches provide stylish and practical storage for toiletries, while subtle LED lighting enhances the overall ambiance.

"We used Big Mike to do several painting projects to get our house ready for sale. Project included spray prepping smand spray painting my office, painting our garage, bedrooms, our utility room, 2 bedrooms, dormers (including replacing rotting wood), front entryway, cabana doors and our fence. We also used them to repair a window and to remove algae from several areas on our roof. Mike and his team are hard working, reliable and his pricing is very reasonable. I’d highly recommend him and his crew."

"Hiring Elson, Ardi and their team was a great choice from Day One. Their proposal was well conceived, the price was very competitive, and the work was completed on time and on budget. Dismantling and removing the old roof deck on our co-op in midtown Manhattan and replacing it entirely with a well designed new one was a big job but was finished remarkably quickly. Plus, Elson made several recommendations that greatly improved final result. As President of our co-op, I would unequivocally recommend this company."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Common mistakes when finishing basement walls include neglecting proper insulation, insufficient moisture management, and poor ventilation. Not addressing these issues can lead to mold growth, water damage, and discomfort. Additionally, inadequate planning, improper framing, and rushing the project can result in subpar outcomes. 

It's essential to follow best practices, seek professional guidance if needed, and prioritize thoroughness and attention to detail.

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.

Rebar is an essential part of reinforcing a basement floor, as not having it can impact its structural integrity. It helps absorb the tension factors that contribute to cracks in your floor and strengthens its load-bearing capabilities by evenly distributing the weight. Not including rebar could lead to an unstable floor, so don’t skip it!

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.

If you’re not sure which method of raising the ceiling is best for you, here are a couple of considerations to help you make that decision. A professional ceiling company will be able to help you determine the best option for your home.

  • How long you are planning to live there: although raising the basement ceiling will increase the value of your home, if you’re planning to sell the house, then go for raising the house.

  • The condition of the foundation: to lower the floors, your foundation has to be intact whereas raising the house will allow you to restore the damaged foundation.
