"I hired A&R Remodeling to paint the exterior of my house. They were very prompt on getting a quote together, and were able to perform the job at a very reasonable price. They were extremely professional, and very thorough in performing all the needed prep work to make sure that the end product would be high quality. I am completely satisfied with the work they performed and would highly recommend them for any exterior painting."

"I just want to say thank our project manager Max! He was on top of things and kept the project moving smoothly! I can’t express how stress free this remodel went compared to other remodels I’ve done. He communicates clearly, and followed up regularly. I’m just so impressed with how my new kitchen looks. From the blue prints to real life it’s exactly what I wanted and imagined. Thank you thank you!"

"Beautiful work done by people who care. I had an old deck torn out and a new one built. The work is impeccable. Rob was accommodating as far as changes and special requests. His crew was on time and very easy to work with. Good communication and close attention to detail. I love my new deck. I will certainly hire them again."

"Robert was great to work with; he listened to what we wanted to do, offered some great suggestions and his crews performed the work in a timely manner. I think what we really appreciated was their flexibility and willingness to let us choose and purchase the materials for the remodel. Like most people we were on a budget and having the ability to pick up that tile we found on sale, or order a specific fixture off amazon was great. We were not constrained by annoying "allowances" (or bogus overage charges) for specific materials because we got to supply the materials. We were also allowed us to do some of the work ourselves which also helped with the costs. The various crews were clean and professional and there was no concern with having them doing work while we were away. A great experience - thank you, Robert."

Basement Remodel FAQs, answered by experts

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.

The average cost of remodeling a basement is $30 to $75 per square foot. If your space is unfinished and looks like it may need more help, use the higher number when calculating your estimated basement remodeling costs. A good rule of thumb is to add an additional 20% to the top of your estimate to cover any “what if” situations.

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.

Save money on your basement finishing project by making cost-effective decisions such as minimizing structural changes and avoiding costly construction revisions. DIY simpler tasks such as painting or basic cleanup to reduce labor costs. You can also opt for energy-efficient fixtures and materials that may qualify for rebates or tax incentives.

Envision the type of bar experience you'd like to create for your guests. For example:

  • Does your basement have enough finished space for bar stools or seating?

  • What type of additional lighting would set the tone for the room?

  • Are there basement windows or an HVAC system?

  • Do you need new plumbing in your basement for a proper wet bar?

  • Could you be happy with a built-in wall cabinet bar rather than a full-scale wet bar?
