"This review is delayed due to long term family illness and subsequent death in family. However, dRemodeling did such a good job with the project, I felt compelled to post this review, even if it is late. Using Angie’s List, we consulted three contractors for estimates. We had considered using dRemodeling for our major kitchen remodel several years earlier but decided to go with another company. Based on the excellent reviews on Angie’s List, we scheduled a meeting with Dan Dragonir, the owner of dRemodeling and one of his designers, Ashley. We discussed design ideas, materials, cost, work schedule and expected completion time. Shortly thereafter, Dan provided us with a document which included a lot of information about major costs associated with typical bathroom remodel. We asked him to proceed with providing us with a design proposal. We liked the idea of Dan having a showroom where we could go to look at materials and speak to the designer. After we saw the designs, the estimated cost and completion time, we decided to hire dRemodeling. Our bathroom remodel was a major undertaking. It involved gutting 3 bathrooms down to the studs, in a house that is nearly 130 years old. Although we stayed within the existing footprint of the bathrooms (no enlargement), due to the age of the house, the project was complex, with surprises lurking around every corner. Nothing is level or square in a house this old. Structural issues needed to be addressed before the rebuild could begin. This prolonged the project. The demolition began February 20th, 2017 things moved along fairly smoothly. Dan and the designers (Ashley and Stephanie) were very responsive to suggestions and questions; they were available by phone, text or e-mail. As work progressed, we decided on a number of upgrades and Dan always informed of the additional costs in advance so we could decide how we wanted to proceed. As I mentioned, there were challenges throughout the job. Design changes had to be made in the main bathroom because the original design was not feasible, according to the engineer. This was somewhat disappointing but we worked around it. The technicians were superb. They were highly skilled, knowledgeable, hardworking and conscientious about minimizing dust and dirt and cleaning up at the end of the day. Any unavoidable collateral damage (ex., cracks in plaster to adjoining rooms, suspended ceiling tiles in room below bathroom damaged) was addressed immediately. The project was finalized in mid-June. A month or so later, we found what we thought was a potential plumbing problem and called Dan. He sent someone out immediately to investigate and we determined it was NOT related to the project. It was resolved to our satisfaction. Here are the pros and areas needing improvement: Pros - Price: Cost of job was reasonable compared to other estimates. Dan and his designers will work with you to stay within your budget -Quality: The technicians are knowledgeable, highly skilled and meticulous. They took great care to protect other areas of our home and cleaned up every day. Some collateral damage occurred during demolition and everything was repaired to our satisfaction. -Showroom: It was advantageous to have in-house designers and a showroom to look at materials. This was one of the reasons we selected this company. Dan and the designers (Ashley & Stephanie) were very responsive to changes we wanted to make as the project progressed -All employees are very professional, courteous and hard working Areas for Improvement -Scheduling: Dan (the owner) estimated each bathroom would take 15 days, for a total of 45 days to complete the project. We felt that was a bit optimistic. As previously mentioned, the age of the house created challenges that required more time, which we understood. Initially, the job moved along smoothly but after a while, there were days the technicians could have worked and they did not. We were not informed they weren't coming and didn't know the reason. We had to contact the office to find out what was going on. My husband and I are retired so we have a very flexible schedule. I travel out of state two weeks each month so we were able to work around their scheduling issues. However the project took nearly 5 months from start to finish. This could be a problem for people whose schedules aren't as flexible as ours. -Communication: There was no Project Manager on site on a regular basis. When issues came up on the job, we talked to the technician but they weren't empowered to resolve the issue without talking to someone or they asked that we call the office. This resulted in some miscommunication between the designer, the technicians, Dan and us. However, I must say, when I sent an e-mail to the designer or Dan, we generally received a prompt response. I realize Dan has a small operation and having a PM would be an additional expense. However, for a job this big, it would have made things work more smoothly. -Material Shipment: Make certain someone opens the boxes as the materials arrive, to check for damage. We were discouraged from opening boxes for safety reasons so we assumed the technicians were inspecting the material. All 3 toilets, an expensive linen closet and vanity top were broken. This was the freight company's fault, not dRemodeling however, the damage was not discovered until the boxes were opened for the materials to be installed. In one case it was beyond 30 days and the manufacturer did not want to replace it. This caused additional delays in completing the project. Despite the few areas needing improvement, overall, I would highly recommend using dRemodeling . We love the end result! Our bathrooms are beautiful and their price was competitive with other estimates we had gotten. All employees were a pleasure to work with!"

The cost to finish a basement is $18,400 for the average homeowner. However, this cost could be as little as $2,800 or as much as $34,500, depending on the basement size and the materials needed. If your basement is already outfitted with electrical and plumbing, expect the cost to fall on the lower end.
For example, the drywall cost for this project averages around $1,750, but other features, like hiring a plumber, cost between $45 and $200 per hour.
The cost to remodel a basement is between $12,100 and $33,400 for the average homeowner. The price you pay can be as little as $3,500 or as much as $50,200, depending on the size and condition of your basement and the type of remodel you're doing.
If you're doing a simple project like adding a home office to your basement, you can expect to pay anywhere from $500 to $3,000. However, if you're adding a bathroom, which is an extensive project, you can expect to pay between $6,600 to $16,500.
Yes, most states require home remodeling contractors to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed home remodeling contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The average cost to enclose a patio to create a sunroom is around $5,000, and prices generally range from $3,000 up to $10,000. The price you pay will depend on the state of your patio and whether it needs repairs or additional structural support, the quality of the materials you choose, the size of your patio, and whether you plan to run utilities into and finish the sunroom. The price for a fully finished patio enclosure could run up to around $20,000, while you might pay just $2,500 for a screened-in porch.
In almost all cases, you will need permits if you plan on building a sunroom over your patio, but regulations and requirements will depend on your municipality. Permits to enclose your patio will usually cost between $300 and $1,000. Since navigating local building codes and zoning requirements is challenging—and the consequences of not following them can be extremely expensive—we strongly recommend hiring a sunroom builder to complete the work and pull the permits for you.
