"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."
"We hired Puget Sound B&R for basement remodeling and Dan did a fantastic job managing the project. The crew was hardworking, respectful, and detail-oriented. Our basement now feels like a completely new living space. Great experience from start to finish with outstanding workmanship."
"Anyvision Home Remodeling did an incredible job converting our Seattle basement into a beautiful ADU. The craftsmanship is top-notch, the project stayed on track, and the new space is exactly what we envisioned. Highly recommend their team for any major remodel"
"Ryan and his team completed an extensive basement remodel in our 1924 home. The basement work included new framing/drywall, windows (including a large egress window), plumbing and electrical to support a main living space, new bathroom and new laundry room. We also updated our old forced-air HVAC and water heather to new mini-splits and a tankless water heater. This is our second major project with Ryan and we plan to work with him for many years to come. He's incredibly responsive and detail oriented and always plans phases of our projects to support our future plans. Ryan's expertise and quality of work is well worth the cost."
"I hired Topaz Remodeling to replace my front porch, including tearing out the damaged surface, installing a proper drain (the original builder’s oversight caused major leaks), and repairing the resulting damage to the floor, hardwood, and basement. The owner’s communication was excellent, keeping me informed about schedules and progress. They even finished ahead of the estimated timeline. Omar, the project lead, was phenomenal. His recommendations elevated the final result, and his attention to detail was unmatched. The tilework is flawless, with precise measurements ensuring a polished look. The team delivered exceptional quality, turning a stressful situation into a seamless process. My new porch is beautiful and fully functional. I highly recommend Topaz Remodeling and will gladly use them again for future projects."
"I called this company to get a quote for a bathroom remodel. Ben was scheduled to come on site and give me a quote. I felt very comfortable with the quote and Ben. They did a great job on my bathroom finishes and plans a head. I even remodel my kitchen afterwards with them, Ben is very professional and responsive who made this process very easy. I defiantly going to use them again in the future."
"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 worked with Chase and Anyvision Home Remodeling in February 2025 to remodel the main/ master bathroom in my home. I was very happy with Chase and his very talented team. From the beginning of the project to the end, the team listened to what I wanted, and were very detail oriented. I appreciated the video updates from Chase that showed the daily progress of the project. They were also very diligent to cover all the carpet and the wallpaper in the area to avoid damage during the construction. Furthermore, the team left the work space clean and tidy at the end of the day. I loved the completed project and I would recommend Chase and his team for remodeling work."
The best type of basement ventilation system depends on your budget, the moisture in your basement’s air, and the types of windows you have down there. You should consider all of these factors when choosing a ventilation system. However, the most effective method for basement ventilation is an energy recovery ventilator (ERV) or a whole-house ventilation system, which preheats or precools incoming air from the outside while also managing water vapor.
Yes, in most cases, finishing a basement is worth the cost. The project adds valuable, usable square footage to your home and typically provides a return on investment (ROI) of 70% to 75%. For example, an average basement refinishing project costing $32,000 could add between $22,400 and $24,000 to your property's value. The final value added depends on factors like your location, the quality of materials and workmanship, and the features you include, such as a living space, bedroom, or bathroom. To be officially counted in your home's total square footage, the finished space must comply with all local building codes, including requirements for points of egress. However, in areas prone to flooding, a finished basement might be seen as a liability by potential buyers and could potentially decrease your home's value.
Permits may be required for major repairs, structural work, or electrical and plumbing restoration after a flood. Check with your local building department to determine permit requirements and associated fees for your flooded basement cleanup project. Obtaining the correct permits helps ensure work is done safely and up to code.
The difficulty of adding a basement to an existing house can vary depending on the house’s location, the size of the basement, and the type and condition of the existing foundation. Adding a basement is a job best handled by the pros, so you’ll need to enlist professional help for this project.
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.
