"If you’re looking for reliable, honest, and hardworking contractors, Rettle Enterprise is the best choice. They have now completed two big projects for me and my family, and both times they were professional, dependable, and went absolutely above and beyond our expectations. They first added a kitchen to the lower level of our home, and more recently, they completely redid and cleaned up the mess left behind by another contractor in our downstairs bathroom. The quality of their work, attention to detail, and professionalism really stand out. I absolutely wouldn’t trust anyone else to work on our home. If we have another project in the future, Rettle Enterprise will be the first and only contractor we call. Highly recommend!"

"We hired Jimmy Wrenn for a full basement remodel, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, the communication was clear, honest, and professional. The crew showed up on time, kept the work area clean, and paid close attention to detail throughout the project. The quality of the work exceeded our expectations, and the project was completed on schedule and within budget. Any questions or small changes we had were handled quickly and without hassle. Our basement has been completely transformed into a beautiful, functional space, and we’ve already received compliments from friends and family. I would highly recommend Jimmy Wrenn to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality remodeling work."

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.

Basements are commonly converted into game rooms. The potential challenges you may run into include controlling moisture, working with low ceilings, limited natural light, and the need for additional electrical or HVAC work. Addressing these issues can add to the total cost, but it ensures a comfortable and functional space.

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.

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.

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.
