Get matched with top basement remodelers in Lancaster, SC

"Great job repairing an external basement door from years of water damage. Eric did a fantastic job and completed it in one day. I highly recommend Cransten Handyman."

"Fantastic, Bill and his crew did an excellent job on my deck, sunroom and most recently boardwalk down to the lake. They stayed on the project everyday until it was finished and polished off every little detail. Everyone was always friendly, accommodating and very pleasant. I would hire them again without hesitation!!"

"Where to even begin? Blake and Mark are the real deal. They know their craft, are honest, reliable, and great to work with. They take the time to learn what your “vision” is and the work with you to create it. Communication is on point….no surprises. This is the second project I hired them for, which pretty much says it all. If you’re lucky enough to land them as your contractors, you won’t be disappointed."

"The sales rep was very personable and seemed to have knowledge of drainage problems and solutions. The workers arrived on schedule and worked very hard to accomplish the task at hand. They routed the drainage to an open ditch parallel to the property. They also rerouted drainage for an existing, inefficient french drain and sump that was pumping water across the driveway that was washing the soil out from under the concrete and creating an unsightly stain. To this point, we felt that all was going well. The problem that arose was that the French drain they installed was still higher than the foundation of the house. They filled in the trench with gravel to facilitate drainage, but covered the gravel with the soil they removed, which is mostly clay. Consequently, the water still runs off across the top of the French drain and overwhelms the foundation. Moisture in the crawl space has not been significantly reduced. I talked to the rep about redoing the crawl space which had mold forming on the floor joists. He gave me a quote that included sealing all the vents, cleaning the mold, adjusting pitch of the interior perimeter French drain, relocating the crawl sump and pump to a better collection point, putting down new vapor barrier and installing a crawl space dehumidifier, ($1,500.00) at a total cost of $4,290.00. If we wanted mold remediation treatment in addition to just cleaning the mold, the cost was an additional $1,950.00. The rep also agreed to send a team back out to remove the top layer of soil from the French drain and fill the trench with gravel, build up the soil at the foundation, making the new French drain at a level lower than the foundation to contain the water, at no additional charge. Subsequent to all that, we discovered some major structural damage that was going to be costly. Alignment of priorities and available finances dictated that the crawl space would have to be put on hold, at least temporarily. I sent an email to the Moisture Loc rep explaining our dilemma, but reiterated that I still expected him to live up to his promise to fix the French drain deficiencies, for which I already paid handsomely. In spite of email, text messages and voice mail to the rep, I have never received the courtesy of a response. I can only conclude that since we had to suspend the crawl space work, there is no intention to make the necessary changes/repairs to the original work as promised.

"Jon and Clay arrived fully ready to get to work. They completed the job in a timely manner and left the basement virtually spotless. They had good suggestions for future improvements. This was a tough job but they did it well and now I actually enjoy going in my basement."

"Nice guys and great service.  They took care of everything we had asked and cleaned up everything afterwards.  
Couldn't ask for anything more.  Would hire them again and recommend to friends.

"What they did was good. The gentleman that installed the switches did not check the (2) 2-way switches before he left and I found that one switch would lock the other from turning on. They did have someone come back out and make the repair. My only complaint would be that they put the dimmer switches in inconvenient locations, as opposed to where I requested them to be installed."

"I found Mr. Aybar and his team to be very friendly and engaging. They were trustworthy, and I had no problem with them being in my home when I was not there.

Their work was excellent, and was reasonably priced.

I have since engaged Mr. Aybar to provide some quotes for some additional remodeling work for my home and would not hesitate to engage him or his team again."

"We used Chris Havey and FCR for the first time in late 2012, to remodel a large rec room above our 3-car garage. It included a custom built-in cabinet for the entertainment center, refinishing of existing cabinets, and installation of new flooring. We were very pleased with the timing, cost, and professionalism. We used them again this spring to gut and remodel two bathrooms (including custom-built vanities and beautiful faux-marble showers with glass enclosures), and to remodel/reconfigure a bedroom and closet spaces. Again, we were very happy with the results, and would not hesitate to recommend Chris and his team. In fact, we are already planning our next project.

"The work they did was fine. The big deal was for $99. There were extra charges just for the work related to the holes; some got larger and expanded because it wasn’t originally placed on the stud. It was just some minor things related to that which was not part of the original contract because I wanted them to move it over to a stud and then redo it. They had to fix the hole that was left. I think I paid for the paint. They went in and picked it up for me. The work itself wasn’t an issue. It was actually getting done. They came up pretty immediate to actually look at it. Then there was a holdup in getting the estimate and getting an appointment fixed after that. It took longer than what they told me it was going to. The quality of the work was great. Everything was done just like they said it would be done. There were no issues. There was no splattering of paint. The pricing was fine. I would not use them again in the future. I don’t like the wait at the beginning part. I don’t like having to call them about it. That really is the reason why I would not use them; not because of the quality of work. It's just that it is my personal preference."
