"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. They've exceeded all my expectations, and I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking transformative, eco-friendly home improvements."

"Ryan signed a contract, took deposit money, lied about ordering the materials, finally ordered part of what was needed, repeatedly failed to show up as promised, did spend three hours one time only, on some prep work, always responded to phone calls, text messages and emails, but never followed through on the assurances he offered in response, and failed to return as of this posting any of the deposit per our written and signed contract."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

You should plan on waiting at least a year and ideally two to three years after construction before finishing your basement. This will give the foundation time to settle in response to the weight of your home and the expansion of the surrounding soil. You can then repair your foundation and seal any cracks as needed before finishing it to reduce your risk of future leaks or other issues.

It is generally more affordable to finish a basement than an attic, though it ultimately depends on how you plan to use the space. The average cost to finish a basement ranges from $7 to $23 per square foot, while attic renovation costs $30 to $60 per square foot. However, a simple attic conversion to a storage space will cost significantly less.

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.

The cost of finishing a basement is about $18,400 on average. As you can see, the framing portion of this project costs less, because you’re essentially just dealing with laying the foundation for a finished basement. The finishing portion of the project involves a lot more intricate work and design, as well as high-end materials.

Yes, barndominiums can have basements. Barndominiums are typically built over concrete slabs, so barndo basements are not very common. However, it is possible to include a basement in a barndominium blueprint as long as you’re building completely from scratch. Barndos can have the same types of basements as traditional homes, including full or walk-out basements.
