"I contracted Bassett Home to update my 60 year old kichen. Bassett's did a fantastic job of refacing my existing cabinets that my father had built. They also installed some new cabinets to match along with a quartz countertop, new tiled backsplash, and new sink. Alex and Paige are some of the nicest people and wonderful to work with to make my kichen look totally new and updated."

"I knew it was going to be challenging to find an investor that would lend me money for this real estate venture.  I have lived 20 years in a four unit historic condominium building in downtown Jersey City and I wanted to buy the unit above me as an investment property.  But with Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac rules, they would not give me a loan because I would own half the building and this would give me too much control over condo association decisions.  I checked with Angie's List where Central Lending was well recommended and spoke with Mark, the president of Central Lending, about my situation and that I needed an unconventional loan outside of Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac oversights.  After many disappointments and on the very last day of my contract with the seller, Mark found a lender.  And on the very last day of the window to the loan, it closed.  I cannot thank Mark and his assistant Judy enough for their patience and steadfast of seeing this through.  I cannot tell you the emotional roller-coaster ride I went through during the 4 1/2 month duration.  There were many moments that I wanted to give up but Mark reassured me that the sale would happen.  Without Mark's personal intervention with the lender and title company, this deal would not have closed.   You can be sure that when I am in the market to buy unit #3, I will not hesitate to contact Central Lending.  Thank you so much."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Adam to have epoxy floors installed in my home, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, he demonstrated professionalism, attention to detail, and a genuine passion for his craft. The floors look absolutely stunning—smooth, glossy, and perfectly even. The transformation in my space is incredible, making it not only more functional but also incredibly stylish. He took the time to explain the process, answer all my questions, and ensure that every detail was executed flawlessly. If you're considering epoxy flooring, look no further. Adam’s expertise and dedication to quality are second to none. I highly recommend him for any epoxy flooring needs—you won't be disappointed!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

When choosing materials for finishing basement walls, consider factors such as moisture resistance, durability, and fire resistance. Opt for materials specifically designed for basement environments, like moisture-resistant drywall or cement board. Insulation with vapor barriers can help regulate temperature and prevent condensation. Consider using mold-resistant paints or coatings. 

Research and consult with experts to select materials that are suitable for your specific basement conditions and intended use. Prioritize quality and compatibility to achieve long-lasting and aesthetically pleasing results.

Adding an extension or addition to your home costs more than a loft conversion in all but the rarest cases where the home's structural integrity is lacking. Because a home addition requires a new foundation section or significant structural upgrades to handle a cantilevered portion, the cost compared to almost any loft conversion is significantly greater for the same square footage.

Adding a bathroom to your basement can increase your home value since homes with multiple bathrooms sell for more. The return on investment (ROI) for a basement bathroom is 50% to 75%. The actual return varies with your home and location. Adding a half bath to your home increases the value by 2.9% while finishing a basement increases the home value by 6.6%.

The average cost to remodel a basement is between $12,100 and $33,400. Depending on the project's complexity, the price can be as low as $3,500 or exceed $50,200. For a simple project like adding a home office, you might spend between $500 and $3,000. However, a more extensive project, such as adding a bathroom, can range from $6,600 to $16,500. The final cost is influenced by factors like the basement's size and condition, the type of remodel, material choices, your location, and accessibility. For an accurate price, it's best to consult with a basement remodeling team.
