"Mad City Windows showed up on time (actually a little early). They went to work immediately. In 2 hours they had pulled out 5 old windows and installed the new triple pane windows. In 3 more hours they insulated all 5 and installed the trim over the insulation. 5 hours total from start to finish. It was like they were never here when they left except the house was a lot warmer with the new windows."

This consultation can either be a full design service or at an hourly rate. This service is also perfect for the DIY'er who just needs a Decorating Service. We have found that a few of our clients just need help with placement of their room embellishments/object d'art. Small things such as books on a shelf to that one of a kind art piece. We will assist you with anything you wish. We can shop national chains together, or we can do the shopping for you. Our goal is to give the outstanding Service you are asking for when you chose us as your Designer Firm, at a fraction of the cost of an In-home Designer

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

It’s less expensive to finish your basement than it is to build an addition to your home. The average cost to refinish a basement is $32,000 (between $7 and $23 per square foot) while building an addition to your home costs $50,325 ($80 to $210 per square foot). Depending on the size of your basement and other factors, like moving plumbing and electrical, refinishing a basement is a more cost-effective option in most cases.

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.

Envision the type of bar experience you'd like to create for your guests. For example:

  • Does your basement have enough finished space for bar stools or seating?

  • What type of additional lighting would set the tone for the room?

  • Are there basement windows or an HVAC system?

  • Do you need new plumbing in your basement for a proper wet bar?

  • Could you be happy with a built-in wall cabinet bar rather than a full-scale wet bar?

Assuming you are going for a full remodel for an average-sized basement with a reputable contractor, the process can take up to two weeks or more. Remember that basements have many stairs and often difficult access—it’s not like working in the entryway. The shuttling of materials, increased need for ventilation and safety precautions, and making sure everything can be removed through a doorway all increase time and cost.

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.
