"Net Zero Design has earned my utmost admiration for their exceptional work on a recent project â a remarkable 3-bedroom addition to my Vermont home. As someone deeply committed to sustainability and energy efficiency, I couldn't be happier with the outstanding results. From the outset, Net Zero Design demonstrated a profound understanding of green building practices. The integration of WiFi-enabled Smart Lighting, Heat Pumps, Heat Pump Water Heaters, and a Standby Generator showcases their commitment to cutting-edge technology that not only enhances comfort but also minimizes environmental impact. The team's expertise in energy-efficient design is truly commendable. The WiFi-enabled Smart Lighting system not only adds a modern touch but also contributes to energy savings. The Heat Pumps and Heat Pump Water Heaters provide efficient heating and cooling, ensuring optimal comfort while significantly reducing energy consumption. The inclusion of a Standby Generator reflects their foresight and dedication to ensuring uninterrupted power supply, especially in Vermont's challenging weather conditions. This thoughtful addition adds an extra layer of reliability and peace of mind. Throughout the project, communication was excellent. The team kept me informed about the progress, and their attention to detail was evident at every stage. Despite the complexity of integrating advanced technologies, the project was completed efficiently and surpassed all expectations. Net Zero Design's ability to deliver a stunning, energy-efficient addition that seamlessly blends with the existing structure is truly remarkable. This project has not only elevated the functionality of my home but has also significantly reduced my environmental footprint. In conclusion, if you're seeking a general contractor specializing in energy efficiency and sustainability, Net Zero Design is the epitome of excellence.

We are a General Contracting firm serving central and southern Vermont and New Hampshire since 1984. We offer a variety of construction services from design / build to working off your plans. We can work with you from concept to completion. Our seasoned construction team consists of estimating, project management, on and off site supervision, carpenters and mechanics. www.wrightconstruction.com

"I had serious water problems in my basement, and a crumbling foundation. The concrete block foundation had lost a lot of its grout and was bulging dangerously. Wright straightened the wall, installed French drains on two sides of the house, insulated the interior walls and ceiling of the basement, and installed a thick plastic vapor barrier on the floor. They poured about four inches of cement on the floor and installed a heater that will keep the temperature above freezing in the basement. This makes it easier to turn on the water and to heat the upstairs if I come up in the winter. The cost was about $40,000. I was very pleased with Wright's workmanship, responsiveness and the quality of their staff. I would recommend Wright without hesitation to anyone with an engineering problem."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can add a door to your basement—it might even be required, depending on building codes in your area and whether or not you’re using the basement as a bedroom. A basement contractor can give you some advice on installation and help you add a door to your basement.

In most cases, a contractor will ask you for a deposit that is a percentage of the total cost of your job, but you should never pay in full before work has begun. The up-front cost could be as much as 50%, or you might give a contractor as little as 10% up front. Discuss payment terms with your contractor before they begin the job to avoid surprises.

To determine if your basement walls are suitable for finishing, assess their structural integrity and moisture conditions. Look for any signs of damage, such as cracks, bowing, or excessive moisture. Ensure proper drainage and address any underlying issues before proceeding. 

Consult with a professional if you're uncertain about the structural stability or potential risks associated with finishing your basement walls.

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.

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
