"JNG was excellent to work with. They provided a competitive quote, came on the date scheduled and completed the work in a timely fashion. The heat pump they installed was done according to code by a licensed electrician in an older home. This included running lines from the breaker box from one end of the house to the other. It works great and we have not had any issues. When I had the work done I was struggling to find a contractor and JNG was a lifesaver!!"

"I highly recommend Tanner at Crafted Creations, LLC for any carpentry and other project. His work is meticulous, beautifully crafted, and clearly reflects how much pride he takes in what he does. I live in Shelburne, and Tanner was always punctual, polite, professional, and very trustworthy as I was not at my home for most of his work. He respected my home and our belongings. What really stood out to me, though, was how carefully he listened to what I wanted. He is incredibly thoughtful, creative, and resourceful, and he has an impressive collection of tools and skills to bring ideas to life. Tanner doesn’t just do the job—he takes the time to understand his customer and think through the best way to accomplish the project. His attention to detail and thoughtful approach made the entire experience a pleasure. I would happily recommend Tanner to anyone looking for a talented, dependable, and genuinely caring carpenter. His craftsmanship is exceptional, and he is a wonderful person"

"Jason was great to work with. We got in contact him from Home Advisor after getting an initial quote from a local contractor for 45,000 more than what Jason was able to do the work for! We were so pleased with his services - he was great at communicating, up front, helped us come up with ideas, and just generally was great to work with."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

When considering finishing your basement, take into account a few pros and cons:

Pros

  • Can increase the value of your home

  • Separate space from the rest of the house 

  • Customize and personalize the basement to suit your needs and style

  • Increase the amount of living space in your home

Cons

  • May not regain enough value to cover the cost of finishing

  • Lack of natural light if it’s below ground level

  • Moisture or flooding can cause costly damage

  • Installing plumbing and electrical can be messy and costly

If you have the woodworking experience to build a bar from scratch and you have the time, DIYing the work is a no-brainer and can save a few thousand dollars. However, if you’re looking to include a sink, additional lighting fixtures, or high-end bar tops and cabinets, it’s usually a better idea to call in a pro. It will cost more, but the finished product will likely be worth 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.

Yes, adding a walkout basement will usually bump up your property value. Most homeowners prefer walk out basements because the exposed wall that’s level with the ground provides more utility via a ground-level exterior entrance, and they can fit full windows, which adds natural light and ventilation to the basement area. The only exception might be in areas prone to tornadoes, as walkout basements aren’t as safe as regular basements during a tornado, particularly if they include large windows or glass sliding doors.

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.
