Customers say: True professional

"Granzow Home Inprovement was amazing, from the initial meeting, to questions or concerns we had, before, during, and after the work was performed. We were pleasantly surprised mostly by the care and concern Rick and Bob took regarding their customer, which is rare in many businesses. This was our first home remodel project, we learned a lot from it, and we love our basement! Keep up the excellent service!"

"Not once during our entire basement finishing process did I question our decision to work with Mike Hessling at Catalyst (formerly Apex). The entire process took just over a month to go from a completely unfinished basement to a brand new, beautiful, rec room, office, and 3/4 bathroom. Mike even dealt with all the curve balls we threw him along the way, switching colors midway through painting, adding an additional cabinet here. He is the kind of contractor you dream of. He's hands-on, there first thing every morning doing so much of the work himself! And the coordination with all the subcontractors was amazing. Everyone knew when and where to be and what exactly needed to get done. To top it all off, he came in right on budget as quoted (which was very fair). Mike's brother Adam was also key in the build, working hard with Mike or on his own."

"Rick and Bob did a wonderful job finishing our basement. They are easy to work with and take care of scheduling all the sub contractors(which were awesome too) and inspections to keep the project running smoothly. We get many compliments on the look and craftsmanship of their work. Highly recommend them!"

"We had Shire Group work on a remodel of a new office for us. They removed walls, framed in new doorways, and, in an ample space, created five new offices from the ground up. They asked questions that we never would have thought of. After completing the project, many visitors asked about their work besides the new offices. This shows how detailed they were; people could not tell new trim from old trim, removed doorways, moved light switches, and turned an old mailroom into extra space in our kitchen."

"About two years ago, the KBS team (including Alberto and Elizabeth) completed a remodel of our house to accommodate a family member with disabilities. They were fantastic: excellent communication, attention to detail, recommendations and project coordination. Super responsive and friendly, too! We are so happy with the results and had a really positive experience in the planning and remodel itself."

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.

The average cost of remodeling a basement is $30 to $75 per square foot. If your space is unfinished and looks like it may need more help, use the higher number when calculating your estimated basement remodeling costs. A good rule of thumb is to add an additional 20% to the top of your estimate to cover any “what if” situations.

Common mistakes when finishing basement walls include neglecting proper insulation, insufficient moisture management, and poor ventilation. Not addressing these issues can lead to mold growth, water damage, and discomfort. Additionally, inadequate planning, improper framing, and rushing the project can result in subpar outcomes. 

It's essential to follow best practices, seek professional guidance if needed, and prioritize thoroughness and attention to detail.

While bathrooms and kitchens are nearly equal in terms of renovation difficulty, kitchens are the most challenging. Kitchen design, layout, electrical, and plumbing needs all depend on each other for the success of the entire project, and mistakes early in the project can cause trouble later on.

Making a window in a basement larger costs an average of $4,200. You’ll need to pay an average of $550 to have a structural engineer plan the project, $500 to $1,500 for the installation labor, and an average of $2,200 for the excavation and window well installation. The remainder will go toward pulling permits, installing trim, and repairing drywall on the interior.
