"Amanda was really very good!  At first I was very skeptical, thinking why did I pay money to just speak with someone on the phone about my kitchen remodel project... but after just a few minutes of her addressing some of the issues/questions I emailed to her earlier, I knew it was worth it.  It was very clear that she knew her business and she gave me several ideas that I had not even thought about.  I told her that I would definitely recommend her to friends and I will very likely use her again myself for my next home project!

"The workers showed up 15 minutes earlier than expected, they were courteous and worked quickly, they kept area clean and safe, amd kept us informed as the remodel progressed. When issues arose, they would involve us in finding a solution, they finished the remodel on-time and on budget. Very satisfied with the work, and having a FIVE YEAR guarantee on materials and labor is amazing, will recommend to all my neighbors, family and friends. Thanks Elite..."

"We hired Cory to do measurements & create an architectural design plan for our relatively involved home remodel (kitchen, dining room, half bath, and laundry room). Cory was fantastic! He was very flexible and was able to work around our schedules. He was friendly, personable, and very professional. He wasn't bothered at all when my 4-year-old son wanted to talk to him about dinosaurs while taking his measurements. Cory was responsive to feedback & quickly made adjustments to his initial design to meet our needs. I really appreciated his keen eye - with his tips it's far better than we had initially hoped! His fee was very reasonable, better than most other architects we spoke with. I would absolutely hire him again & recommend him to friends!"

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Yes, most general contractors require an initial down payment, typically between 10% and 25% of the total project cost. This upfront payment helps cover the costs of materials, permits, and subcontractors. The remaining project costs are usually billed after specific project milestones are reached or on set completion dates, as outlined in your contract. Be wary of contractors who require a significant deposit of 50% or more upfront, as this could be a red flag for a scam.

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?

Rebar is an essential part of reinforcing a basement floor, as not having it can impact its structural integrity. It helps absorb the tension factors that contribute to cracks in your floor and strengthens its load-bearing capabilities by evenly distributing the weight. Not including rebar could lead to an unstable floor, so don’t skip it!

A walkout basement is considered to be partially below grade because at least one wall is entirely exposed. In some cases and in specific municipalities, inspectors and appraisers will still count walkout basements as below grade, which means the space can’t serve as living space or be rented out. If you intend on using the area as living space or a separate apartment, you should check with your local building department to make sure it’s legal to do so.

Renovations that add functionality or more comfortable floor space generally add the most value when remodeling your home. Attic or basement finishing can add floor space without altering the home's structure, saving you renovation money while adding valuable space. Smaller improvements, such as installing smart-home components or replacing entry doors and windows, also experience high ROIs.
