"I'm remodeling a rental property, was looking for help to get things done faster. Contacted All Builds Construction to do drywall/tape/mud/finish ceilings in two rooms. Found out during the estimate they can do much more than just drywall. Ended up also having them install kitchen cabinets and countertops. Everything from communication to price to workmanship were all great, no complaints at all. I would absolutely recommend them, and will certainly call the next time I need more work done. You won't be disappointed, give them a call!"
"Austin was an excellent worker. Got the job done efficiently and sooner than expected. Would hire him again if I need more work done. His work was excellent!"
"Don is very personable and offered great suggestions on a more "fininshed" look for our kitchen. Our cabinets have just come in and we have every confidence that HR Builders will do a very professional job."

"Very pleased w remodel. Jesse ( business owner) was always on time , completed all portions of project on time schedule provided , communicated daily on how project was progressing and time schedule to completion. He was very flexible w work schedule based on my unusual work schedule . He involved myself in decisions re choices of color of paint, style of fixtures lights etc and when given flexibility of choice and asked for his opinion demonstrated great taste . He was very meticulous in his work down to fine details, shows pride in his work and was very fair on pricing. I wasn’t certain at first where to turn to have a shower placed in my half bath for an elderly parent who I did not want to have to climb stairs to get to other bathrooms in the house. All other remodelers contacted did not provide service of placing a shower in but only replace existing shower or bath. He knocked out part of bathroom wall into adjoining laundry room for the shower and placed new dry wall. He placed tiled shower, new vanity , new towel holders, toilet paper holders , new fan vent and had to rework existing plumbing ( new shower , moved washer and dryer based on existing space requiring new dryer air duct ,further enhancement in plumbing for washer and did an awesome job. When an outdoor faucet ? Valve broke ( not his fault ) he replaced piping placed new indoor shut off valve even though not part of original project.Very pleased w end result, my adult daughter , son and his friends were raving about the remodel of both the bathroom and laundry room. Very appreciative. If looking for business who’s owner is very skilled ,meticulous, flexible ,prompt , professional and personable I’m confident you will be pleased with his work if hired"
You should always use high-quality lumber for your framing in order to ensure it will last the test of time and resist moisture. Use 2-foot by 4-foot lumber that is pressure-treated for your framing.
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!
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.
Professional remodelers streamline the process, manage permits, and handle renovations efficiently—significantly mitigating risk while maintaining standards.
The time it takes to finish or remodel a basement can vary significantly, ranging from a few weeks to several months or even up to a year. On average, the construction phase can take four to eight weeks, but the total project time can extend to three or four months when including planning and permits. The timeline depends on several factors, including the basement's size, design complexity, the scope of the work, and your contractor's availability. A more detailed breakdown for an average-sized basement might include: framing (3-5 days), electrical and rough-in plumbing (3-5 days), drywall installation (5 days), flooring (2-3 days), and final touches like painting and trim (about a week). If preliminary work like installing a waterproofing system or addressing structural issues is needed, the timeline could extend to six to twelve months. Factors like difficult access, material transport, and ventilation needs can also add to the project's duration.
