"We had a great experience with the Lux Renovations and Owens Corning team. The whole process was very easy from designing the space, selecting colors, and having a contract manager who organized the entire basement remodel including all the trades and inspections. We were sold on the Owens Corning materials for the basement and that they were engineered specifically for a basement space. Would highly recommend this team for your basement remodel needs."

"Mr. Sosa was very pleasant and patient. However, we were surprised that the scope of work covered by this coupon offer was so narrow. We did go to the bathroom and tile stores to survey what the "extras" would cost. The total expense would be a lot more than we expected and we have decided that we prefer not to go through with this remodel work at this time. Thank you, Debbie Seret"

"Dave is absolutely terrific.  This is the 4th time I have used him for re-modeling work and I was not disappointed.  His workmanship is first rate.  He pays meticulous attention to detail, which is especially important in tiling work.  His carpentry work is equally well done.  He is very innovative and can offer excellent suggestions on how to improve your basic re-modeling concepts.  He is totally responsive to the customer.  He will do whatever you want him to do and change whatever you want him to change.  He does not argue with you or try to make you feel like you're an idiot when you ask a question or propose an idea (like some contractors and most car mechanics).  He tries to figure out how to make what you want happen.  He is extremely knowledgeable about the full scope of his profession, including all code requirements.  He does not cut corners and is just as concerned about getting the stuff you don't see right as he is about getting the stuff you see right.  He is totally honest and up front about all his work and his costs.  The cost of this particular project (or projects) did increase but that was because the project evolved.  He was completely up-front about costs as the project evolved.  In some cases the costs increased because he found rotting pipes behind the walls (shoddy materials used by the builder) and other hidden problems.  He showed me those problems and explained the costs in both material and time.  He is completely trustworthy.  I had no qualms about giving him the ability to let himself into my house and work there alone.  I have never had a problem.  He is very careful about cleaning up after himself too.  Despite the major work being done my house was still livable and presentable enough for me to have guests.  Dave is a one-man contractor show which allows him to be totally flexible in meeting your needs, to give you a great price and to work with a focus on quality and getting the job done right rather than paying attention to a clock or the calendar.  The only drawback with Dave being a one-man show is that he has no real back-up.  If he gets sick or his truck breaks down or he has to deal with a family issue, there is no one to come and substitute for him.  So there is a need for his customers to be flexible when working with him.  Everything always gets done and it always gets done to perfection but, depending on the type of job it is, it may take longer than either you or Dave originally planned.  He is also sometimes hard to get in touch with because he's running in so many directions.  Persistence pays off though.  That said, if you want a contractor who is totally trustworthy and does absolutely superior work at an excellent price, there is no better guy to call than Dave.  I will definitely continue to use him for any home remodeling needs.

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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.

Some older homes have toilets in the basement to combat sewage backups. This type of toilet, also known as a Pittsburgh potty, acted as a safety valve over the incoming sewer line. If a line backed up, it would back up into the toilet because it was the lowest fixture in the home, keeping it out of sight and away from the finished areas of the house.

Basement toilets were also used by workers with messy jobs, like those who worked in coal mines or steel mills. This way, they could clean up and avoid tracking dirt through their home.

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

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

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.
