Customers say: Quick response

"Chris was very responsive with the bid and for other questions, and he and the crew were always punctual. Overall communication was way better than expected. The work crew was as unobtrusive as possible (for a very noisy couple of bathroom remodels) and were very respectful and hard-working. The quality of the work was very pleasing. Every time a decision needed to be made they were able to give good advice."

"Leo and helper rebuilt outdoor stairs and did a very nice job. He was quick and professional from first contact to job completion. But, he underestimated wood needed for replacement of deck boards and he didn’t bid the cleanup/disposal of removed wood so the quote was short by $300. I would recommend Leo just be sure the quote includes everything you want done."

"I needed both the front and back decks cleaned, stained and some minor repairs. The team was careful and professional. The job was excellent. I also had them fix my two gates that were sagging. I would hire them again."

Small jobs welcome

"We spent a great deal of time and energy (four rounds of interviews) researching contractors to help us remodel the home we had just bought, and we chose Burlingame Contracting. Our project was significant because we not only wanted to completely remodel both of our bathrooms but we also needed demolition and structural work, removing and adding walls, windows, skylights, plumbing, electrical and roof work.   We had very specific design ideas and a detailed parts list (different kinds of floor and wall tiles, imported lighting, large soaking tub, fixtures, etc.) and a limited amount of space, so we really needed to find someone who was flexible enough in their skill-set to get things done how we wanted them and who could communicate extremely well as there were tons of small design decisions that needed to be made along the way. Paul really came through for us. Not only did he create what we had imagined, he reliably offered improvement ideas and structural suggestions as he was working on the project. There were things that there was no way for us to know about in advance and, without Paul's forward thinking, we might have ended up with something beautiful that didn't last. His work looks good and feels solid and we trust it.   Paul often told me that he was afraid he would "bug me" too much with questions and thoughts. As someone who has been through the remodel process in the past, this was music to my ears. And Paul was true to his word, contacting us whenever he had a question, texting us pictures, explaining options and issues, and consistently letting us know where he was at with regard to the project. We also very much appreciated his willingness to take time out of his weekend to meet with us weekly at the house to go over his progress and review details in person, as we were still living in the Seattle area.   In terms of the work quality, it is excellent! Every time I walk into one of the bathrooms, I feel as though I've entered a beautiful hotel, suited just to my tastes. The only downside is that Paul’s work is so nice it now makes us want to have him update the rest of the house as well!   Paul has good attention to detail and we appreciated his experience and workmanship. He has good subs and suppliers and manages them well. He is easy to work with, has a good sense of humor, and really ensured that he understood what we had in mind and did a fantastic job making it real."

Basement Remodel FAQs, answered by experts

Living in a finished basement is acceptable, but only if the space has the proper points of egress and includes smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) detectors to ensure the safety of the occupants. A good way to ensure your finished basement is suitable for use as living space is to get the basement finishing project properly permitted.

Building up by adding square footage to the top of your home is often less expensive than adding a basement, but it depends on the specifics of your house, your property, and supply costs. Because building a basement requires excavation, it can be a more expensive option than building up.

Yes, you can add a kitchenette to a basement. However, you’ll have to consider the costs associated with basement kitchenettes. If you’re starting from scratch in an unfinished basement, you’ll need to account for brand-new plumbing, electrical, flooring, and more in addition to the cost of the kitchenette. If you’re putting a kitchenette in an already finished basement equipped with plumbing and electrical, you’ll save considerable money.

Create a checklist, reimagine the space use, set a realistic budget, choose materials and aesthetic details, and get professional support for guidelines and troubleshooting.

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
