"In 2022, we decided to add a new kitchen and substantially remodel our mid-1960s Edmonds rambler. After reading many on-line reviews and meeting with several contractors we decided to go with Johnson and Sons.....and we are so very happy that we did. From the very start we were impressed with how open, honest and responsive Vic Johnson was, a trend that continued throughout our project. As you might imagine, a significant remodel and addition to a 60-year old home is likely to bring with it surprises and our remodel was no exception. Despite the many challenges encountered, Johnson and Son and their subcontractors readily overcame them. Among the many lessons we learned during our remodel was the value of quality subcontractors. Vic's relationship with his subs in some cases extend more than a decade and the depth of these relationships was reflected by the quality and timeliness of their work. All in all we feel that the workmanship, attention to detail and care shown by all involved in our remodel was superb. We highly recommend Johnson and Sons to anyone looking to remodel their home."

"Ryan and his team did a great job on our basement remodel. Communication was strong as was attention to detail. A concerted effort was made to keep the worksite clean. Like many renovations, it took longer than anticipated and we encountered a measurement hiccup that, while solved, could have been identified and addressed upfront"

"I would recommend him and he is 5-star all the way. After our dishwasher leaked and ruin our floor, we had hired another a contractor to remodel our kitchen but found that he did not want to do because to him it was too small of a job. So, I found GASHIN EMPIRE LLC on Angie. He came out and looked at it and said that he would do it. He is very open, honest, he gave me a clear schedule and he was able to accommodate our needs. After waiting 4 months for our kitchen to get done he did it in 4 weeks. It is beautiful and all our guests just love what he has done. I would absolutely hire him again in the future."
"I had an outstanding experience with Anyvision Home Remodeling on my master bathroom remodel. Chase and his team were incredibly professional, reliable, and communicative, demonstrating true craftsmanship and attention to detail. In addition to the master bath, they also rebuilt a guest bathroom shower that had been poorly done by a previous contractor, and the difference in quality was remarkable. Their dedication to excellence exceeded my expectations, and after a frustrating experience with another contractor, it was a relief to work with a team that is both highly skilled and trustworthy. I highly recommend Anyvision Home Remodeling for anyone looking for a stress-free, top-quality renovation."
The time it takes to finish or remodel a basement can vary significantly, ranging from a few weeks to several months or even up to a year. On average, the construction phase can take four to eight weeks, but the total project time can extend to three or four months when including planning and permits. The timeline depends on several factors, including the basement's size, design complexity, the scope of the work, and your contractor's availability. A more detailed breakdown for an average-sized basement might include: framing (3-5 days), electrical and rough-in plumbing (3-5 days), drywall installation (5 days), flooring (2-3 days), and final touches like painting and trim (about a week). If preliminary work like installing a waterproofing system or addressing structural issues is needed, the timeline could extend to six to twelve months. Factors like difficult access, material transport, and ventilation needs can also add to the project's duration.
Installing a bathroom in a basement isn’t a project for most homeowners. Many parts—plumbing, electricity, and carpentry—go into this project, each requiring expert-level knowledge and tools. One miscalculation can lead to very expensive repairs. Plus, some homeowner’s insurance might not pay for damages caused by a homeowner DIYing this project. You can protect yourself by allowing the pros to complete this job for you.
If you’re not sure which method of raising the ceiling is best for you, here are a couple of considerations to help you make that decision. A professional ceiling company will be able to help you determine the best option for your home.
How long you are planning to live there: although raising the basement ceiling will increase the value of your home, if you’re planning to sell the house, then go for raising the house.
The condition of the foundation: to lower the floors, your foundation has to be intact whereas raising the house will allow you to restore the damaged foundation.
Walkout basements cost more than other kinds of basements, and can also increase your risk of leaks as well as a loss of insulation, leading to higher heating and cooling costs. Improperly installed walkout basements may lead to structural issues with your foundation, so ensure you’re working with a contractor who has extensive experience with this kind of basement.
A finished basement must have a heat and electrical supply with an entrance that meets building code requirements, such as a stairwell to the home's main living space. It often must include finished walls, ceilings, and floors. If the finished basement includes a bedroom, it should have a heat source, an egress window, and a closet.
Remodeling, as opposed to finishing, means altering an already finished basement by adding a bathroom, bedroom, or living area.
