"Dan and his team were very professional and knowledgeable about the work. The planning and estimation process was very transparent. No hidden costs or surprises. All work is done legally with a professional contractor for plumbing and electrical work. Different options and recommendations are shared through out the project work. Crew was very polite, respectable and professional. They made sure no unnecessary noise was created and kept the house & working area clean. They would clean up after the work. I will recommend Beautiful Basements for any remodeling work and especially for the basement remodeling."

"A big thanks to Pete, Chad and the rest of the crew for our bathroom remodel. It was a big project in a small space so working conditions were less than ideal. Every project comes with an unexpected curve ball or two, and these guys handled them very well. We talked through options and were able to agree on solutions quickly when things came up. At the end of the day, we are very happy with the work and customer service throughout the process and would definitely call them again if/when another project comes up. Thanks again!"

"Project was managed by James Deel from CARE Ohio. The work crew was fast, professional, and very personable. They took care of our house and garage, kept the work area immaculate, and stayed late until the job was done to their high standards. I have nothing but praise for Construction and Remodeling Experts, James Deel, Lloyd Hilton, and the entire roofing crew! I would strongly recommend them to anyone who wants a great looking roof on their home and wants the best bang for their bucks!"

"Sandor and his brother power washed and re-grouted our patio brick, then applied a sealer. Sandor also installed new right-sized drain openings to correct a water issue during heavy rains. His workmanship is top quality and he treated our projects like it was his own home. Our patio hasn't looked this good since it was installed. You might find cheaper but you won't find better workmanship."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Yes, most general contractors require an initial down payment, typically between 10% and 25% of the total project cost. This upfront payment helps cover the costs of materials, permits, and subcontractors. The remaining project costs are usually billed after specific project milestones are reached or on set completion dates, as outlined in your contract. Be wary of contractors who require a significant deposit of 50% or more upfront, as this could be a red flag for a scam.

Building a bar in the basement will likely add value to your home, although it’s unlikely that you’ll see a significant return on investment (ROI) unless you plan on using the space for you and your guests. If you think you’ll use the area frequently, though, it’s probably worth the investment, and you should see a bump in value if or when you sell your property.

There are several small, inexpensive upgrades you can make to upgrade your basement. Although you still need to adhere to building codes and obtain permits when necessary, you can complete small but mighty tasks like painting the masonry walls and installing entertainment devices to make the space more usable. 

Any bowing in a basement wall indicates a problem that needs to be addressed by a professional. If your basement wall bows more than 1 inch, it's time for an inspection. Generally, a wall can bow up to 30% of its thickness (around 2.5 inches for an 8-inch-thick wall) before it becomes an urgent situation. Bowing of 2 to 4 inches is more straightforward to fix than bowing of more than 4 inches, which will require significant repairs. If the bowing is more than 6 inches, the wall will likely need to be replaced. The sooner you address the problem, the easier and less expensive the repair will be.

Yes, you can add a kitchenette to a basement. However, you’ll have to consider the costs associated with basement kitchenettes. If you’re starting from scratch in an unfinished basement, you’ll need to account for brand-new plumbing, electrical, flooring, and more in addition to the cost of the kitchenette. If you’re putting a kitchenette in an already finished basement equipped with plumbing and electrical, you’ll save considerable money.
