"Luis was professional, prompt, and constantly kept me in the loop about the status of the project, timelines etc. His crew was also professional and did a great job. I hired LM Coatings to paint the doors and trim in my house and to build walls/ceiling and hang drywall in my basement (along with lighting and electrical work). The paint looks beautiful, no drips or runs, and they even tackled difficult areas like around the stairs. The basement looks great and they really did a nice job with finishing the drywall because the walls primed and painted perfectly. I will definitely hire again."

"I Hired this company to remodel my basement which was in bad shape. They sealed the floor and walls, put up 2x4 walls. insulation and drywall and painted everything. All new lighting, added a utility sink and partitioned off the furnace area and utility area. all new vinyl floors and doubled the living space in my house. The wife loves it and the kids now have a big play area. My wife now wants the bathrooms redone, I wouldn't hesitate to call them back in."

"Edward Perry did an outstanding job remodeling my bathroom, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, he was professional, reliable, and detail-oriented, making sure every aspect of the project was done right. His craftsmanship is excellent—the tile work is flawless, the fixtures were installed perfectly, and the entire space looks modern and refreshed. He kept the area clean during the process, communicated clearly, and stayed on schedule, which I really appreciated. I would highly recommend Edward to anyone looking for quality remodeling work."

"FANTASTIC WORK!! I highly recommend Homeworkx to anyone needing remodeling done! Taylor was wonderful to work with; he quickly responded to my text messages, even in the evenings. His crew worked very diligently and efficiently, and my newly tiled shower is amazing, and my new kitchen lighting is awesome! These changes gave a much needed update to the look of these spaces! What a facelift! I am incredibly happy with the process and outcome! Two thumbs up!!"

"Overall, it was a good experience. AAA put down a vapor barrier and installed a Santa Fe dehumidifier with sump pump. The result is that we can now use the stand-up basement/crawlspace to store things under the house without ruining them. This is the part that you need to know. The installation was not without problems. First, they broke an A/C drain pipe, second, they cut a sprinkler controller wire while running a PVC pipe. Here's my take, accidents happen but how does the business respond to these issues? Well, Donna was very quick to send her team out to correct the problems and they even paid for the damage to the sprinkler system. To me, that's top notch customer service. Any business can make a mistake, but how they handle it is the mark of a good company. Every time I lift the roll door and go into the basement now, I'm amazed at how cool and fresh the air is down there. No more mildew and no more smell."

"I have a older home, 40s, that had the original windows in it. As with all things, with age comes deterioration. I contacted Dillion from Stefaniak Construction and spoke with him about replacement options and scheduled an inspection. He was very professional and knowledgeable with my situation. After his inspection, we decided to replace 9 of the windows in the home. With it being an older home, there were a few obstacles for him and he handled them in a quick and proficient manner. I am extremely pleased with the final results and his professionalism. I would recommend Stefaniak Construction 10/10."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

Basements with persistent moisture problems or flooding shouldn’t be finished until the moisture issues have been fixed. In addition, if your foundation is cracked, you have unmitigated radon levels, or you have asbestos or lead pipes, remediate the underlying problem before finishing your basement. Turning a basement into living space before fixing these issues can lead to serious health risks or structural damage. 

Yes, you can install a summer kitchen or kitchenette in your basement. They serve similar purposes as outdoor kitchens, keeping the main floor of the house cool and providing another space to cook and congregate. Basement kitchens are also a worthwhile alternative for homeowners without much space in the backyard. They come with a few logistical questions to sort out, though, like ventilation and waterproofing.

You should plan on waiting at least a year and ideally two to three years after construction before finishing your basement. This will give the foundation time to settle in response to the weight of your home and the expansion of the surrounding soil. You can then repair your foundation and seal any cracks as needed before finishing it to reduce your risk of future leaks or other issues.

Physically, the most challenging part of finishing a basement is installing egress windows or doors when the space is below ground level. Mentally, the hardest part may be envisioning the project and planning around load-bearing and mechanical obstacles.
