"The Ground Up crew took their time to make sure I was happy with the outdoor painting project. They also cleaned up some splattered paint from a previous paint company. They were on time and kept me updated as the project progressed . This was an excellent experience and I would hire them again."

"I reached out to a lot of other construction companies before signing contract with Tradesman construction. Thorough professionals, prompt responses, no surprises! Special shout out to Hunter Lewis, always provided cost effective options for problems, always available for quick questions, timely updates on project progress, polite and patient. It was a pleasure working with Tradesman Construction for my basement finishing project and I would highly recommend them for any remodeling, basement finish or any such projects!!"

Customers say: Quick response

"First let me say that my wife and I have gone through the gamut of "handy-men" who specialize in home repairs and renovations. We interviewed several contractors before we initiated a contract with the Patch-Boys. It's hard to find someone you feel can do the work and you trust. But I can honestly say that from the first day I met Jason - I had a good feeling about wanting these guys to do the work on my home. In my previous house I'd had my share of butchers come in a make, what my wife and I referred to as "The Fun House" even more or a wreck with poor - but from the first day of work I knew I had made the right decision in hiring The Patch Boys, when Jason said "It's not just a project, it's a relationship between us and Patch Boys" I really believed that was how he felt. The projects results really proved he could put his money where his mouth is! The first two gents who showed up were Chris and Lee - Lee has been doing construction work since the 70s and his work was nothing short of perfection. Chris and Lee together worked with me to figure out the best way to frame the basement up. They brought out details that I had not thought of and helped me really flesh out the way the room would ultimately look. Lee also handled the light installation and electrical outlets. By the time they were done the room was starting to really take shape. I won't say who built my house, but based on the work that was done to build out the frame of my basement - I would absolutely say they were many times over more meticulous than the home builders themselves. The made sure everything was done to the best of their ability and that I was satisfies the whole way through their part of the project. Next came Angel and Alex - these two guys hung drywall like it was an Olympic event. Not only was their work excellent - finished smooth as a baby's backside, these guys were SO FAST!! Next came the flooring guys (who's names escape me) and in only a couple days they entire floor - including carpeted stairs was installed and looking amazing! Finally it was time for the the doors, trim and paint - and it was kind of unbelievable how nice everything looked when it was finished. There were a couple time I questioned things but the answers I was given more than satisfied my concerns and the end result was a beautiful usable living space in my basement that far exceeded my expectations. Every person who came here representing the Patch Boy's was of the highest caliber and utmost professional in their areas of expertise. I would 110% hire these guys for other renovations again later and I am absolutely going to bring them back to add the bathroom and finish the other side of the basement later. Jason thank you to you and your team of awesome people. It was the best home renovation experience I have ever had; you guys really set the bar high!!! In a nutshell - if you want your project to look amazing and pretty much exceed your expectations - don't hesitate these guys can make it happen."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.

The most challenging part of finishing a basement is addressing moisture control. Basement waterproofing is an essential task that requires a professional’s skills and knowledge. If you don’t properly waterproof your finished basement, it’ll be vulnerable to dampness, water damage, and mold growth. Ensuring proper insulation and ventilation to combat these issues while meeting building codes adds complexity to your remodeling project.

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.

If you have the woodworking experience to build a bar from scratch and you have the time, DIYing the work is a no-brainer and can save a few thousand dollars. However, if you’re looking to include a sink, additional lighting fixtures, or high-end bar tops and cabinets, it’s usually a better idea to call in a pro. It will cost more, but the finished product will likely be worth it.
