"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."

"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."

"We hired Rob to finish our basement and we are so pleased with the outcome! Rob did an excellent job and his craft is second to none. In addition to his craftsmanship, Rob is so easy to work with. He has great communication and people skills (something you don’t find a lot in contractors). I could not recommend him highly enough for your next project!"

"I had been looking for someone to handle my carpentry and remodeling needs for some time. I had an immediate requirement for some exterior repairs come up and asked for a referral from the folks at one of the local high end lumber stores. They referred me to Rick at River City Remodeling. I contacted Rick and had him evaluate my situation. He assessed the issue and provided a comprehensive, detailed written estimate which I accepted. The work was subsequently performed promptly, thoroughly and expertly. Rick and his helper were personable and professional. Every detail was addressed and once they left everything was cleaned up with no indication they had been there. I have additional projects on my wish list and River City Remodeling is going to be the first company I intend to call."

"We had our basement remodeled and can't be happier with how things went. Mike was extremely knowledgeable and responsive, the entire crew was always on time and professional, and the basement looks outstanding! We have gotten raving reviews from everyone that's seen the basement and our family is so happy to have the extra space to enjoy together. After initially reaching out to several companies and getting outrageous estimates or dealing with no shows for meetings, I'm so thankful I found Citywide! I would highly recommend and will consider them again for future projects."

"Brad and his team were exceptional! Every step involved in the process of hiring Brad to the follow-up was done with the utmost care and professionalism. He returned my call the very same day, came out the next day to look at the job scope, provided a quote the same evening. Upon hiring Brad, he started the work within a week. He showed up at my home on time, ready to work! They worked through the entire day without breaks! Worked under tarps in pouring rain, rather than creating more dust inside our home. We needed the job done quickly and he achieved that! 500 SF flooded basement, vinyl torn out and completed in 10 hours! And done beautifully! I would not hesitate to use Brad again for another job! A+++ rating!"

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.

You should plan on waiting at least a year and ideally two to three years after construction before finishing your basement. This will give the foundation time to settle in response to the weight of your home and the expansion of the surrounding soil. You can then repair your foundation and seal any cracks as needed before finishing it to reduce your risk of future leaks or other issues.

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.

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.

Unless you have extensive experience in construction work, remodeling a basement is best left to a professional. There are several tasks associated with this project that require exact precision, including:

  • Replacing insulation 

  • Replacing carpet or other flooring 

  • Adding heating and cooling

  • Adjusting or adding walls and doors

  • Altering or adding plumbing elements

If any of these elements is done incorrectly, it could severely impact the quality of your basement remodel and be dangerous. Changing a basement often comes with code safety requirements, like egress windows and proper ventilation. Therefore, leaving it up to a professional is often the best decision.
