"Mike, the owner, does a great job bringing his contractors and workers in and making sure all the work gets done. We're ultimately going to have them do a future kitchen remodel, that's how strong we felt about their work. They have some wonderful craftsman and are very detail oriented. They make sure that the details are done appropriately."

"Trey King was great to work with.  He kept me informed on the project and I never had trouble reaching him.  His crew that poured the driveway and sidewalk were equally good to work with.  The whole experience was positive.

"My bathroom remodels performed by Intelligent Home Services were the best contractor experience I’ve ever had. They performed the work on schedule, were extremely communicative throughout the process giving me daily updates on work to be performed and when to expect the craftsmen to show up, and performed quality work all for a great price. They were even there for me when unexpected water damage due to my upstairs neighbor’s pipe led to me having to jump right into a master bathroom remodel one week after finishing the spare. The tile and drywall work were impeccable. Ben, the owner and licensed contractor, stayed involved throughout the process and made frequent visits to check out the work. I am a professional engineer who works with contractors regularly so I know good project management and construction services when I see them. If you’re looking for a contractor with knowledge and integrity who can perform quality work quickly and for a great price, then look no further."

"It was great 10 star service. The guys were very polite and gave me a lot of different options to choose from and did a fantastic job. I would definitely hire them again with any project that I may have in the future. Also saved me money in the end which was very helpful and convenient. They also wore masks ? to stay COVID-19 free and wore booties so they didn’t track in any dirt and cleaned up like they weren’t even there. Great company."

Basement Remodel FAQs, answered by experts

When considering finishing your basement, take into account a few pros and cons:

Pros

  • Can increase the value of your home

  • Separate space from the rest of the house 

  • Customize and personalize the basement to suit your needs and style

  • Increase the amount of living space in your home

Cons

  • May not regain enough value to cover the cost of finishing

  • Lack of natural light if it’s below ground level

  • Moisture or flooding can cause costly damage

  • Installing plumbing and electrical can be messy and costly

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.

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.

Envision the type of bar experience you'd like to create for your guests. For example:

  • Does your basement have enough finished space for bar stools or seating?

  • What type of additional lighting would set the tone for the room?

  • Are there basement windows or an HVAC system?

  • Do you need new plumbing in your basement for a proper wet bar?

  • Could you be happy with a built-in wall cabinet bar rather than a full-scale wet bar?

Unless you have extensive experience in construction work, remodeling a basement is best left to a professional. There are several tasks associated with this project that require exact precision, including:

  • Replacing insulation 

  • Replacing carpet or other flooring 

  • Adding heating and cooling

  • Adjusting or adding walls and doors

  • Altering or adding plumbing elements

If any of these elements is done incorrectly, it could severely impact the quality of your basement remodel and be dangerous. Changing a basement often comes with code safety requirements, like egress windows and proper ventilation. Therefore, leaving it up to a professional is often the best decision.
