"I had a leaking roof and needed to get a new one quickly. Lo's Contracting had the best bid and time frame. I'm happy with the end result however it was a bit a fiasco. When putting on the roof there was a bad rainstorm at night and only the underlayment was down at that point. Water came in through almost every room in the house. As you can imagine, I was freaking out! However, I was able to get a hold of one of the workmen who called it in and everyone came out that night around 8pm in the dark and rain and put tarps over the entire house. They brought in huge de-humidifiers the next day and had them running for a few days which seemed to dry everything up. (Lo's Contracting paid for the extra electricity that the de-humidifiers used). They also replaced the insulation in the attic crawlspace at no cost. Three years later there was a leak around one of the nails and pipe collar on the roof, which reading up on does happen(not sure if it should happen after 3 years(that's why the B...but) Amadou was quick to check it out the same day I called and then sent someone as soon as their schedule allowed, a couple days. I appreciate them fitting me in to the schedule and responding so quickly and apologetically. They also cleaned my house after all was done. Amadou, the owner, and Marlon and his team were great to work with, friendly and fixed a couple little things that weren't on the bid at not cost. I would hire again - I'm just not doing anything during the rainiest months of the year again!"

"I hired Joshua to do a master bathroom remodel and can't say enough about the quality, professionalism and integrity that he displayed throughout the entire process. Not only was he thorough, skilled, punctual, neat and communicative,, his subcontractors were as well. Joshua treated his trades people with respect and consideration and that was reflected in the work that they did for him on my job. Together they delivered a project that was both on time and beautifully executed. I was an interior designer for many years and worked with a myriad of different contractors. Joshua stands head and shoulders above anyone I have worked with previously and I would not hesitate to recommend Rutledge Construction."

"Awhile back I decided it was time to replace my old, crumbling shed. After doing a search on Angie’s List, I hired Gryphon Construction because they had good reviews. The process worked, and I must say that I’m super happy with the results I got. Not only were Akeem and company great to work with, they did an excellent job, and and I’m extremely happy with my new shed. (The only reason I’m not calling it “shop” is because I didn’t have power installed). It’s solid, has a locking door, as well as a window, and looks more like a tiny house than the shed that proceeded it. And while they were here, I also had them install a new track for a broken pocket door, which involved removing some dry wall to get at the work-out track. They did a great job on that, too, and I’m very happy with the remodel. I found them to be pleasant to do business with, as well as very conscientious, timely, and they have a strong sense of craftsmanship, which, after all, is what we all want in a good contractor. I highly recommend them!"

"I had originally hired a different contractor who never finish the job. Phil and his amazing crew came in and did amazing fast work. Iâ m so impressed I would highly recommend them. They remodel our basement where there was a kitchen living room and bedroom. They completed in within a reasonable amount of time and very fair on their pricing."

Customers say: Terrific value

"I received several bids for my fence project. I was quit surprised to learned most are specialized in the fact they only install the fence. They do not stain their finished work. But of course they have someone they can recommend. I have a small retaining wall that needed shored up and completed. They don't do it, but they know someone they could recommend. Well lucky for me I found Micheal. He gave me a fair and reasonable bid for all the work I needed completed. He and his crew worked on my project in a timely manner. I would recommend MSW Remodeling LLC to others. I plan to use Michael in the future for my other honey do list."

"I could not be happier with my experience with Val and his entire team. They did a full kitchen remodel in August 2024 for us and we are beyond impressed. Valâ s communication was excellent, he would text regularly, letting us know what to expect for the next day/week. Whenever he said his team was going to be there, they were there. Hard working, punctual and professional. I had an idea of what I wanted and the team executed it perfectly! Val even had some great input to add to my vision and it all turned out amazing. I will recommend Valâ s company to everyone, 10/10!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

Any bowing in a basement wall indicates a problem that needs to be addressed by a professional. If your basement wall bows more than 1 inch, it's time for an inspection. Generally, a wall can bow up to 30% of its thickness (around 2.5 inches for an 8-inch-thick wall) before it becomes an urgent situation. Bowing of 2 to 4 inches is more straightforward to fix than bowing of more than 4 inches, which will require significant repairs. If the bowing is more than 6 inches, the wall will likely need to be replaced. The sooner you address the problem, the easier and less expensive the repair will be.

The cost of finishing a basement is about $18,400 on average. As you can see, the framing portion of this project costs less, because you’re essentially just dealing with laying the foundation for a finished basement. The finishing portion of the project involves a lot more intricate work and design, as well as high-end materials.

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.

If you’re not sure which method of raising the ceiling is best for you, here are a couple of considerations to help you make that decision. A professional ceiling company will be able to help you determine the best option for your home.

  • How long you are planning to live there: although raising the basement ceiling will increase the value of your home, if you’re planning to sell the house, then go for raising the house.

  • The condition of the foundation: to lower the floors, your foundation has to be intact whereas raising the house will allow you to restore the damaged foundation.
