"Our basement was previously finished in the 1970's, but the quality of the work was not good. We ripped everything out and hired Mark to remodel it. The project included adding an egress window, a 3/4 bath (no plumbing previously), a kitchenette, and an electric fireplace. We couldn't be happier with the way it turned out. Mark offered thoughtful guidance and suggestions throughout the process, and he also gave tips for some of our other home improvement projects that were not involved in this one! The price I listed was for the entire project, not just for Mark's carpentry services."

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!"

"John installed crown and base molding throughout entire kitchen. He drywalled areas where walls had been removed and arches expanded. He was very efficient, professional, and completed the job as agreed on time and within budget. We will use him in the future for other remodeling projects!"

"Overall good job with finishing my basement. i really like my basement overall after i installed carpet from Home Depot and home-theater system from Best Buy. i really appreciated them picking up the selections for the basement bathroom from Home Depot. Things that could have been done better: * I had to replace the closet fixtures, probably because they were fixed on the dry wall. * would have been better if i had choice with the shower inside the basement bathroom."

"I consider myself a little more than a novice on general construction when it comes to studding and drywall. I am also a bit of a perfectionist. I needed support to help me studd my unfinished 1700 square foot basement in a new construction home. After calling over a dozen contractors who would either charge me ridiculous prices or tell me that they only do projects like this from start to finish, I met Jordan from JWC and he agreed to take on my project for a reasonable price. I was a little apprehensive at first because his was a young business. Folks, let me tell you. Jordan and his crew came in and absolutely KILLED IT! After three days of back breaking work I was left with a perfectly square and plum studded basement. Throughout the job, Jordan and his team were friendly and courteous to my family and I. More importantly they tackled the work with the focus and know how of a 20 year business. I was floored by their efficiency and ability to navigate the challenging areas like the knee wall I requested along the back wall. I could not be happier with the professionalism and work that Jordan with JWC provided. All of which was provided at a reasonable and honest price. Thanks again JWC Recommend 100 out of 100!!"

"I had planned on finishing our basement myself. Matrix completed a basement for my neighbor so we called for a design/estimate, I am glad we did they were professional, courteous and made themselves welcome guests in our home. They utilized the window wells to move materials as well as come-and-go, so there was minimal distractions to our day. My wife works from home and they were no bother. We were impressed with the materials they used and appreciated their design ideas. We were also able to negotiate items for us to complete to help lower the total cost. We would absolutely recommend to anyone looking to remodel their basement."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

If you have the woodworking experience to build a bar from scratch and you have the time, DIYing the work is a no-brainer and can save a few thousand dollars. However, if you’re looking to include a sink, additional lighting fixtures, or high-end bar tops and cabinets, it’s usually a better idea to call in a pro. It will cost more, but the finished product will likely be worth it.

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.

Yes, you can add a bathroom to an unfinished basement, but you’ll want to take proper precautions if doing so. As with any bathroom addition, you’ll need to make sure that it’s approved by local building authorities first. With unfinished basements, you especially need to keep an eye on proper ventilation practices.

Walkout basements are not generally included in a home’s square footage, although they may be if they meet certain conditions that depend on local regulations. A finished walkout basement used as a living space may be counted toward square footage in some locations as long as all codes for livable space are met.

Some older homes have toilets in the basement to combat sewage backups. This type of toilet, also known as a Pittsburgh potty, acted as a safety valve over the incoming sewer line. If a line backed up, it would back up into the toilet because it was the lowest fixture in the home, keeping it out of sight and away from the finished areas of the house.

Basement toilets were also used by workers with messy jobs, like those who worked in coal mines or steel mills. This way, they could clean up and avoid tracking dirt through their home.
