Customers say: True professional

"They were very professional and did great work. They did everything from running gas lines, electrical, flooring, painting, etc. They were prompt, they cleaned up when they were done at the end of the day and also when the job was done. I would definitely recommend them. We are actually hiring them again to do bathrooms and painting and remodeling the rest of the house."

They remodeled my bedroom, made a new walk in closet, repaired a leaky wall in my son's bedroom, painted around our house, repaired leaks, replaced a very difficult window and helped with our pool installation. These guys know this business inside and out. Their work is of the highest quality. I have a long list of things for them to do."

"I am a property manager for a non-profit that rents single family homes to people with disabilities. Jermie, came to our aid quickly and responded to an emergency situation.  AHS work was very good. They are experienced and gave us a good price.  However, when trying to approve a new project, I asked for more details on the quote to I could figure the cost per square foot for flooring replacement. Jermie was offended by additional questions about his quote. He told me he no longer wanted to do work for our organization and hung up on me.  My co-worker said I was not being harsh or offensive. I was just needing more info to get my boss' approval.  If you are a good people person, maybe you can handle him better than I did.  But it was a very strange response to reasonable questions. I don't know about you, but we ask questions on a 14K bid."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

It’s less expensive to finish your basement than it is to build an addition to your home. The average cost to refinish a basement is $32,000 (between $7 and $23 per square foot) while building an addition to your home costs $50,325 ($80 to $210 per square foot). Depending on the size of your basement and other factors, like moving plumbing and electrical, refinishing a basement is a more cost-effective option in most cases.

Common mistakes when finishing basement walls include neglecting proper insulation, insufficient moisture management, and poor ventilation. Not addressing these issues can lead to mold growth, water damage, and discomfort. Additionally, inadequate planning, improper framing, and rushing the project can result in subpar outcomes. 

It's essential to follow best practices, seek professional guidance if needed, and prioritize thoroughness and attention to detail.

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.
