"We had a makeshift basement shower replaced with a new shower. This required reworking of some plumbing and removing old paneling from the basement and replacing it with drywall. When arriving to give an estimate for our project Frank pointed out some safety concerns in our home that we can address on our own. He gave us options on how to proceed with our requested home updates and reasonable pricing along with a reasonable start date for the project. As work progressed Frank and his crew were personable, careful to note pet needs, and restored my laundry area to usable condition as needed during consctuction. Now that the work is done we are so pleased with it and wondering why we waited so long to have it done. The questionair asks if we would hire Frank's Custom Remodeling Ltd. again. We give a resounding, Yes! In fact, on the last day of our first project we asked for an estimate on a new project on our property."

"They did excellent work. If I saw something wrong, they would correct it right away. I am very happy. They do beautiful work; everyone that has seen my bathrooms since they remodeled them has complimented the work. They really know what they are doing."
The sunporch easily accommodates both outdoor conversation seating and dining sets. Finishing the comfortable indoor/outdoor living space, electrical wiring provides power for the ceiling fan and can lights above, with additional outlets for a TV, speakers and other items—everything the homeowners need to enjoy a fresh, inviting living area.
The sunporch addition was designed for easy living at every touchpoint: Sturdy, lightweight framing materials create the gabled roof and side panel construction, including maintenance-free aluminum posts capped in vinyl, so there’s no paint to touch up or chipping to worry about long-term.
Because the homeowners wanted an unobstructed view and ventilation for their firepit table, screens are run from floor to ceiling along the walls. Added screened entry doors on both sides provide easy access to the room from the yard and adjoining patio.
The new sunporch is a large, open-air living space (11' x 14') with floor-to-ceiling screened panels for excellent ventilation and unrestricted views with a full room for protection.

"Incredible work in a timely and custom focused manner. We remodeled our basement taking an awkward Ryan Homes floor plan and crafting it to a new thetre and entertainment area for the kids. The project manager partnered with me on design ideas, ensured I knew all costs baked in with no surprises, explained their process and utilized their highly certified and professional project team. You can tell the project team has worked many years together as they all stayed in step and ensure a quality product. Hire this team. You will not be sorry!"

"Trevor and John were very professional and did a great job installing a wall oven and Cook top, both of which required cabinet modifications. After they left I found a couple of minor issues I felt needed to be addressed. I contacted their office and John returned early the following day to take care of them. I was very pleased with his response and professional attitude. I would definitely use these people again."

"Buckstone has done 2 projects for us in the last 18 months and have been extremely satisfied with their work. Especially their attention to detail and the level of communication about options. The first was a roof repair that involved removing the ridge vents and replacing them due to leaking. The next project was a master bathroom remodel/update. We were thoroughly pleased with how both turned out . We would recommend them on a very high basis"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Yes, most general contractors require an initial down payment. A reasonable deposit is typically between 10% and 25% of the total project cost, although this can vary by project size and location. This upfront payment helps the contractor cover initial costs like materials, permits, licensing, and hiring subcontractors. The remaining balance is usually billed according to a schedule outlined in your contract, often tied to project milestones or completion dates. Be cautious of contractors who ask for a large deposit of 50% or more, as this could be a red flag for a scam.

Framing a basement takes three to five days, on average, when completed by a professional, though it may take longer for a larger space. Keep in mind this doesn’t include the time to complete the design, obtain permits, and install the drywall on the framing. On average, fully finishing a basement takes an average of 45 days.

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.

Making a window in a basement larger costs an average of $4,200. You’ll need to pay an average of $550 to have a structural engineer plan the project, $500 to $1,500 for the installation labor, and an average of $2,200 for the excavation and window well installation. The remainder will go toward pulling permits, installing trim, and repairing drywall on the interior.

Renovation enhances functionality, increases home value, and can add new space for personal or family needs. It typically modernizes older unfinished basements for new uses.
