"I recommend Martin Hartel without hesitation. He and his crew are the best contractors I have ever dealt with. I am so happy and fortunate to have been able to use their services to complete our dream basement. First of all, Martin has so much experience, expertise and skill. His craftsmanship is impeccable. And his ability to work with you to pull out your ideas, and turn them into reality, is awesome. He is extremely patient and smart, and knows how to balance cost and quality to deliver what you want at a fair price. Some of the things that most impressed me were his attention to detail, desire to do quality work, and just their overall goal to make sure the client is happy. I could tell he was treating my job as if he was finishing his own basement. The framing and wiring were impeccable. Many contractors will do sloppy work with wiring, figuring it will be covered anyway. Martin’s wiring was so clean, smartly run, and used the best materials. The subcontractors he works with are also top notch. The drywall and painting were done quickly and to a high standard. Finally, the overall design and fit and finish were excellent. Everyone who sees our basement is blow away. From the wet bar, to the bathroom, to the custom iron railing, everything is perfect. And I can tell you that his price was substantially better than what the builder wanted to basically do four walls and lighting. Honestly I’m so pleased I wish he could remodel my whole house! If your considering a basement remodel project, do yourself a favor and try to get on Martin’s schedule. You won’t regret it!"

"Outstanding experience with Home One, covering our master bathroom/master bedroom renovation and complete basement refinishing including a spa installation. The entire team was professional, responsive and easy to work with from beginning to end. Communication was excellent throughout the project as they kept us informed every step of the way about material delivery dates, planned daily work schedules, and subcontractor coordination. They used top-quality subcontractors for plumbing, flooring, fixtures and electrical. The team made great suggestions for materials and style choices as well, which made a use difference in the end product. The price was fair and the final cost stayed very close to the original estimate despite the large time and material scope of the project. The workmanship exceeded our expectations. We plan to use them again for an upcoming project, and highly recommend them."

"Everything is absolutely great! The basement was horrible previously and now is a place to be proud of. I might even go down there now! Lol Bathroom flooring has also made a big improvement to overall look of home. Bob was very helpful, pleasant and efficient and will definitely hire them for any future projects needed."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Renovation enhances functionality, increases home value, and can add new space for personal or family needs. It typically modernizes older unfinished basements for new uses.

There are several small, inexpensive upgrades you can make to upgrade your basement. Although you still need to adhere to building codes and obtain permits when necessary, you can complete small but mighty tasks like painting the masonry walls and installing entertainment devices to make the space more usable. 

Yes, it is possible to turn a regular basement into a walkout basement. Doing so involves excavating the land around at least one side of your basement foundation, installing retaining walls to create a permanent below-grade area outside your home, and then cutting into the foundation to install an exterior door that leads out to the new space. This is an expensive and time-consuming project, but it can add a lot of value and utility to your home.

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.

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.
