"DML and his crew are amazing! I had a big project for them for my basement . They had to completely replace the subfloor of a large room and reinforce some of the crumbling infrastructure with a new retaining wall. They gutted, expanded, and remodeled the bathroom with new tile, sink, toilet, vent and fan, everything! I've already recommended them to two other people. Also, their prices are very reasonable."
"This is by far the best general contractor I've ever dealt with! Unfortunately, quailty work at a great price is hard to find these days. Wayman Bro's Construction is not only fairly priced but the owner (Alma) is great to deal with. He was very respectful of my time and always pleasant, his crew is kind, personable and most importantly always did a great job no matter what project I hired them for! I would recommend Wayman Bro's to anyone who is looking for quality work and a good experience!"
"Great company to work with! Excellent communication, being in the construction field myself trust me this is a very important thing and sadly hard to find. Great guys and great work!"
"The remodel went great! Had some drywall I needed replaced in my basement. They stayed on schedule which I’ve had a problem with others doing In the past. Budget was fair. Step by step communication along the way is always appreciated which just seemed to come 2nd nature to them. I highly recommend."
"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!
"I recently worked with Ismerio Construction and it was fantastic! The team was super responsive
The quality exceeded my expectations.
Overall, I highly recommend them for anyone looking for a basement remodel. I’ll definitely be back!"
"The entire project far exceed my expectations from quote to finish. They showed up on time, were very courteous and respectful, and did everything they promised. They did the job right from start to finish and alleviated any worries or concerns regarding inferior or poor quality workmanship."
"Our experience with Forge Contracting was marked by high integrity, good quality, and high value work. I wanted to acknowledge the satisfaction on our remodel. I must give a 100% satisfied mark as you not only finished the job early and under budget, but with great sub-contractors and excellent workmanship. The job was done very efficiently and timely. I would recommend Forge Contracting to anyone and will welcome any calls or references."

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.
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 always use high-quality lumber for your framing in order to ensure it will last the test of time and resist moisture. Use 2-foot by 4-foot lumber that is pressure-treated for your framing.
Yes, you can add a kitchenette to a basement. However, you’ll have to consider the costs associated with basement kitchenettes. If you’re starting from scratch in an unfinished basement, you’ll need to account for brand-new plumbing, electrical, flooring, and more in addition to the cost of the kitchenette. If you’re putting a kitchenette in an already finished basement equipped with plumbing and electrical, you’ll save considerable money.
You can paint your ceiling or install a drywall ceiling if the ceiling is unfinished, as they take up less headroom than drop ceilings.
If there are pipes in the way of ceiling installation, you can do one of two things: reroute the pipes or adjust the installation to fit, which will cost extra.
