"Rob replaced the old, rickety steps leading to our basement with a very sturdy, safe and good looking set of stairs. Rob took the project from the planning stage to finish with attention to every detail. He was accommodating to our needs, very professional and has years of experience. I will call on him for future remodeling projects around the house and recommend him to others."

"I was so pleased with the way the remodels turned out. I had a major kitchen and two bathrooms remodeled and couldnâ t be happier......With the wall removal along with the clean and precise details that Yury and Siarhei put into every step of the projects. I would recommend their workmanship to anyone and will be using them again on future projects!!!"

"If you're looking for a contractor, we couldn't recommend DMF Contracting more. Mike has done several jobs for us and all of his work always exceeds our expectations. Mike took a rendering my husband and I created for a new office/studio for my business and brought the design to life! (see photo with the rendering above and the actual space he built out). He does incredible work, pays close attention to details, is personable and genuinely has his customers best interest at heart. I couldn't have ever imagined I'd be able to have such a beautiful space to work in everyday and Mike made it happen. Since finishing out our basement for my office, we've since hired him for several other products and are just as happy!"

"From my very first phone call, Tim was extremely helpful and eager to assist, clearly explaining the process and answering all of my questions. Jim visited first to assess the project, and I explained that the work would involve remodeling an existing built‑in furniture unit and transforming it into a functional home office. He fully understood the scope and offered practical input based on his experience. Jim completed the work on time and to a very high standard, with excellent attention to detail and overall quality. The transformation from the original built‑in to the finished home office exceeded my expectations, both in terms of craftsmanship and functionality. It was a pleasure working with Tristate from start to finish, and I would not hesitate to highly recommend them."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

A finished basement does not always count as square footage, as this varies by state regulations. In areas that allow below-grade spaces to be included in a home's official square footage, the basement must typically meet certain conditions. These conditions often include having a functional egress and being a livable space with flooring, finished walls, and temperature control. To be certain, contact your local assessor to confirm your area's specific policies regarding basement square footage.

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.

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.

A walkout basement is considered to be partially below grade because at least one wall is entirely exposed. In some cases and in specific municipalities, inspectors and appraisers will still count walkout basements as below grade, which means the space can’t serve as living space or be rented out. If you intend on using the area as living space or a separate apartment, you should check with your local building department to make sure it’s legal to do so.

Yes, it is possible to turn a regular basement into a walkout basement. Doing so involves excavating the land around at least one side of your basement foundation, installing retaining walls to create a permanent below-grade area outside your home, and then cutting into the foundation to install an exterior door that leads out to the new space. This is an expensive and time-consuming project, but it can add a lot of value and utility to your home.
