"Marteeny installed all of our interior doors, trim, baseboards, etc. They gave us good options and recommendations and the final product has made our home look so much more elegant. The re-sale value will be greatly impacted by their design and attention to detail. I would recommend Marteeny for any project, large or small. They also installed our bathroom tile which looks awesome! Thanks Paul!"

"Paul was great to work with. We hired him to finish our basement, and he was knowledgeable, professional, and reliable throughout the project. All work was completed on schedule and to a high standard using trusted subcontractors. Since we live in San Diego and couldn’t be onsite, his honesty and dependability meant a lot to us. We’d highly recommend him."

"Adam and his crew did amazing work going above and beyond expectations. Went out of his way to pickup things that were missing out of the shed kit. It was very appreciated that he picked up a vapor barrier so the shed would be built to last. Great communication and even better price. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend to a friend and/or use on future projects. Thanks Adam!"

"Justin worked so hard to make sure our insurance company got us what we needed, that we were back in our house as quickly as possible, and my children would be safe. He was so very helpful, it would not have gone nearly as smoothly with anyone else!"

"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!"

"I've worked with MRI on many projects at our office building in Lake Oswego and have also hired them for repairs at my home. Every experience has been positive. They are extremely knowledgeable, professional, and capable of handling a wide range of maintenance and construction-related projects. The team is easy to work with, communicates well, and consistently delivers high-quality results. Good people who take pride in their work. I highly recommend them. -Matt P.

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.

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.

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.

Renovations that add functionality or more comfortable floor space generally add the most value when remodeling your home. Attic or basement finishing can add floor space without altering the home's structure, saving you renovation money while adding valuable space. Smaller improvements, such as installing smart-home components or replacing entry doors and windows, also experience high ROIs. 

Yes, adding a walkout basement will usually bump up your property value. Most homeowners prefer walk out basements because the exposed wall that’s level with the ground provides more utility via a ground-level exterior entrance, and they can fit full windows, which adds natural light and ventilation to the basement area. The only exception might be in areas prone to tornadoes, as walkout basements aren’t as safe as regular basements during a tornado, particularly if they include large windows or glass sliding doors.
