"Les, Matt and the entire Free Range team did a wonderful job in our Vermont home. Very conscientious and detail oriented. Despite the chaos of boxes and appliances in the living/work space, our house was left clean each day. They were very open and honest about the cost of the project from the very beginning. We were not present for most of the work so the crew sent daily progress updates and pictures. We will definitely hire them for all of our future projects."

"Jason did an excellent job shoring up our basement. He was a professional with an excellent work ethic. His work was exactly as explained, neat and clean. Jason was respectful of our space. He offered suggestions to improve gutters to direct water away from the house And he is dog friendly I would highly recommend Jason Blanchard."

"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!

"Net Zero Design deserves the highest praise for their outstanding work on transforming my basement in Vermont from a lackluster storage space into a breathtaking game/media room, complete with an extra bedroom and bathroom. The project exceeded all expectations, turning what was once a seemingly unusable area into the jewel of my home. The attention to detail and commitment to excellence displayed by Net Zero Design throughout the renovation process were truly remarkable. The game/media room is a masterpiece. The team's creative vision and skillful execution have resulted in a space that combines functionality with aesthetics. From custom-built entertainment units to carefully chosen lighting fixtures, every element contributes to the overall ambiance of the room. The addition of an extra bedroom and bathroom has not only increased the livable space in my home but has also added tremendous value. The seamless integration of these new elements into the existing layout showcases the expertise and meticulous planning of the Net Zero Design team. Communication was transparent and efficient throughout the project. They kept me informed of the progress, promptly addressed any concerns, and ensured that the final result aligned with my vision. The transformation was completed within the agreed-upon timeframe, showcasing their commitment to punctuality and professionalism. I am beyond thrilled with the outcome of the basement renovation. Net Zero Design has turned what was once a forgotten space into a focal point of my home. If you're looking for a general contractor with a keen eye for design, craftsmanship, and the ability to turn dreams into reality, Net Zero Design is the clear choice. I wholeheartedly recommend them for any home renovation project."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Anything having to do with the structure of your home, such as raising the ceiling, is usually the most expensive part of finishing a basement. Another project component that could be a surprisingly high expense is adding an exterior entrance. 

The cost of a walkout basement can be anywhere from $5,000 to $35,000.

Adding an extension or addition to your home costs more than a loft conversion in all but the rarest cases where the home's structural integrity is lacking. Because a home addition requires a new foundation section or significant structural upgrades to handle a cantilevered portion, the cost compared to almost any loft conversion is significantly greater for the same square footage.

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

Yes, you can add a bathroom to an unfinished basement, but you’ll want to take proper precautions if doing so. As with any bathroom addition, you’ll need to make sure that it’s approved by local building authorities first. With unfinished basements, you especially need to keep an eye on proper ventilation practices.

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.
