My name is Aaron Nesbitt, 43yr old Army Veteran, turned contractor. My first experience doing construction was in 5th grade, helping my father build a barn for our horses in Arkansas. After working for construction companies from Colorado, to Louisiana after the hurricanes, I’ve learned there is a lack of craftsmanship in our industry. My goal is to change that one project at a time. Our mission is to exceed your expectations by delivering clean, quality craftsmanship that goes beyond your imagination. I hope you’ll give us the opportunity to make your vision, a reality.

"We recently had our kitchen remodeled by Upgrade Remodeling, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience. From start to finish, the process was smooth, efficient, and professional. The crews that came out were incredibly hardworking, knowledgeable, and, most importantly, respectful—both toward us and our home. What really impressed us was how organized and efficient the team was. They completed the entire kitchen remodel in just 5 days, which is remarkable considering the amount of work to be done. Every step of the way, they kept the space tidy and treated our home with care, which we truly appreciated. Our new kitchen looks fantastic, and we’re so glad we chose Upgrade Remodeling. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, skilled, and courteous remodeling team."

We take pride in handling the vast majority of work in house. The few items we may subcontract out are only to contractors we have used numerous times before and know perform at the highest standard. We are just beginning to dabble into financing.

"I started the remodel myself and made a mess of a few things but Cougar Development Corp was able to repair my mistakes and give us a finished product that we can be happy to have our guests use. The vanity and shelving look amazing and the trim work done throughout is fantastic. At the end of the project I even requested caulking throughout to prepare for the paint due to my lack of equipment and they did it quickly and perfectly.

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

You technically can paint wires in a basement ceiling, but there are several important safety and code considerations. It's safe to paint non-metallic sheathed cable as long as the labeling remains visible. You can also paint low-voltage wires and conduit and junction boxes to help them blend into your basement. 

However, you should not paint damaged or deteriorated wiring is a fire hazard because it poses a fire hazard. The same goes for painting over high-heat wires that connect to heat-generating appliances or systems. Be sure to avoid painting multiple coats onto any wires, as that traps heat and poses fire risks.

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

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?

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.

Although homeowners often use the terms basement remodeling and basement finishing interchangeably, they are quite different terms. 

Finishing a basement is the process of taking a basement space that is not habitable and adding elements to make it usable. This includes adding plumbing, flooring, and insulation.

Remodeling a basement means taking an already existing finished basement and changing it, often by adding or removing walls, adding plumbing, or changing the existing flooring.
