"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."

"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."

"We are incredibly happy with Carolina Complete Services and the work that they did for us. Jon responded to our quote request within 24 hours and was very professional and approachable. Within days, Alex - his drywall/painter- was at our house looking over the project and giving us a precise quote, and our project was scheduled promptly. Alex was great- knowledgeable, meticulous, and diligent, and Jon kept in close contact throughout to ensure the project went smoothly. The end result exceeded our expectations. We will definitely use Carolina Complete Services again in the near future."

"America?s Choice Contractors remodeled our kitchen in April
2013. What a fantastic job!
 I can?t say enough good things about this fine group of
professionals. Chuck Rhoden and his crew, Rick, Tommy and Davey were a pleasure
to work with. Chuck met with us many times during the planning of our project
offering suggestions and answering our questions. He even took the time to meet
with us at supplier?s locations to advise us regarding quality materials to
achieve the durability and good looks we achieved in our new kitchen.
 Chuck was great and proved to be an honest and dedicated
professional.  Chuck?s crew Rick, Tommy,
and Davey treated us and our home with the upmost respect and concern. Their
professionalism not only shows in their work, but also in their punctuality and
attention to every detail. It was apparent that their goal of a beautiful
kitchen was as important to them as it was to us.
Chuck Rhoden, owner of America?s Choice Contractors, directs
his company in a way that shows his love for his work, his employees, and his
customers.  Because of this, we would not
hesitate to use America?s Choice Contractors again and we plan to do so in the
near future. We trust them completely and look forward to our next project. I
would rate America?s Choice a Five Star Organization and would recommend them
without reservation.

"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.

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Adding a bathroom to your basement can increase your home value since homes with multiple bathrooms sell for more. The return on investment (ROI) for a basement bathroom is 50% to 75%. The actual return varies with your home and location. Adding a half bath to your home increases the value by 2.9% while finishing a basement increases the home value by 6.6%.

Any bowing in a basement wall indicates a problem that needs to be addressed by a professional. If your basement wall bows more than 1 inch, it's time for an inspection. Generally, a wall can bow up to 30% of its thickness (around 2.5 inches for an 8-inch-thick wall) before it becomes an urgent situation. Bowing of 2 to 4 inches is more straightforward to fix than bowing of more than 4 inches, which will require significant repairs. If the bowing is more than 6 inches, the wall will likely need to be replaced. The sooner you address the problem, the easier and less expensive the repair will be.

Efficient appliance positioning, optimizing existing plumbing, and sourcing energy-efficient materials reduce financial impact and increase sustainability.

Anything having to do with the structure of your home, such as raising the ceiling, is usually the most expensive part of finishing a basement. Another project component that could be a surprisingly high expense is adding an exterior entrance. 

The cost of a walkout basement can be anywhere from $5,000 to $35,000.

Since DIYing a basement remodel isn't typically advised, there are some ways that you can still save money on this project without putting yourself in danger. Some ways to save money on a basement remodel include:

  • Painting walls yourself versus including in the cost of the remodel 

  • Installing light fixtures yourself

  • Choosing prefabricated fixtures, like cabinets, over custom ones

  • Choosing a budget-friendly flooring option, like laminate or vinyl flooring, and add rugs where necessary
