"After Receiving quotes from 4 companies, we went with Finished Basements Plus. Not only did they offer the best price, but also included all permits and quality features such as metal framing without us having to ask. Todd, Brian, and their crews were great to deal with throughout the whole project. If getting the job done right for a great price are your priorities (and not speed), these guys are a great choice. We plan on hiring them again to remodel our master bathroom."

"Greg Henslee is hands down THE BEST contractor out there. Great guy, even greater work. Greg completely built us a finished basement with bathroom in exactly 6 weeks as promised. He is a 1 man crew and it’s amazing that he did it all from start to finish. Worth every penny. We couldn’t be happier."

"Tim did a superb job of tearing out the old, putting in the new and repairing the active wet spots in the kitchen ceiling. I feel that his estimates were fair and reasonable and the craftsmanship was a world of difference from the previous subpar job I had done. He is very timely, works consistently and stays on schedule. I can't say enough how happy I am with his end result on this project! I'll be having him back to do another bathroom soon!"

"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!!!"

"I’ve now worked with JNJ Equities three different times, and every project has reinforced why I keep coming back. Bruce and his team finished the loft in my previous home, and that upgrade ended up being a major selling point when we moved. So when it came time to remodel and finish the basement in our new place, calling JNJ again was an easy decision. This remodel included new basement windows (installers were awesome) and a full finish, and the quality is exactly what I’ve come to expect from Bruce and his team….clean work, great communication, and a crew that treats your home with respect. The windows alone make a huge difference. I trust JNJ because they’ve earned it, and I’d recommend them without hesitation."

"Our basement remodel was beautiful and the work was excellent. Nick was very easy to work with and we couldnâ  t be happier with the finished job! The quality of work and attention to detail was top notch. The closets he designed for our teenage children were amazing, with beautiful walk in closets, custom shelving and barn doors. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for custom work and plan to use him again in the future for some updates and changes to our house."

"Working with these guys has been amazing! They were extremely patient with us as we were new to the process and my husband and I could not make up our mind on a few things. Tate and Dmitiry walked us through each step and gave their professional opinion which made these a breeze. They were always available to talk and never made us feel like a bother. We are actually having them come back and remodel our bathrooms because they were so awesome. I would recommend Nova to everyone!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

Kitchens and bathrooms are typically the most expensive rooms to renovate. The high cost is due to several factors, including expensive appliances like ranges, hoods, and refrigerators, as well as costly fixtures. The 'bones' of the room, such as electrical and plumbing, are also expensive to move or replace. Because of the vast amount of prep work, finishing, and specialized labor involved in a relatively small footprint, these projects can cost double or more than a living space remodel. Even when trying to renovate on a budget, kitchens and bathrooms will likely carry a hefty price tag.

You technically can paint wires in a basement ceiling, but there are several important safety and code considerations. It's safe to paint non-metallic sheathed cable as long as the labeling remains visible. You can also paint low-voltage wires and conduit and junction boxes to help them blend into your basement. 

However, you should not paint damaged or deteriorated wiring is a fire hazard because it poses a fire hazard. The same goes for painting over high-heat wires that connect to heat-generating appliances or systems. Be sure to avoid painting multiple coats onto any wires, as that traps heat and poses fire risks.

Professional remodelers streamline the process, manage permits, and handle renovations efficiently—significantly mitigating risk while maintaining standards.

Yes, in most cases, finishing a basement is worth the cost. The project adds valuable, usable square footage to your home and typically provides a return on investment (ROI) of 70% to 75%. For example, an average basement refinishing project costing $32,000 could add between $22,400 and $24,000 to your property's value. The final value added depends on factors like your location, the quality of materials and workmanship, and the features you include, such as a living space, bedroom, or bathroom. To be officially counted in your home's total square footage, the finished space must comply with all local building codes, including requirements for points of egress. However, in areas prone to flooding, a finished basement might be seen as a liability by potential buyers and could potentially decrease your home's value.
