"Bill and Edison were great!! We had an outdated 3 season room that they updated for us. They added windows, door, made handicapped accessible, painted, replaced old stairs etc. Communication with Bill was done through out the project. Edison was very knowledgeable and worked through any challenges we had. Both were pleasant to work with and we definitely would hire again in the future."

"Unfortunately I give BBB a 1 star rating. The project began October of 2021 with demolition, upon completion of each phase I sent an email to Better Built Basement management thanking them for their work effort and identifying items that either required further explanation and/or resolution. As the project went on, I became increasingly frustrated with their lack of communication, lack of accountability, lack of caring, and lack of skill. The straw that broke my back was when Jim (an owner) called me a f’ing c’sucker. Randy, (an owner) sent me the following email: No one has time to read your 3-page condensing e-mails. You have done nothing but complaint. It's obnoxious and draining to everyone you come in contact with. There isn't one person who cant wait to have you out of our lives. I terminated Better Built Basements on June 7th, 2022, here are some of the details of my experience: - The demo crew was excellent in and out in a day and did a great job cleaning up - The electricians were very consultative in their approach to the project, providing input on lighting and outlet placements. - Framing was mediocre. Despite using laser equipment, one wall was wavy and the ceiling grid has a large gap. Pictures attached. - New steel stud framing and pre-hung doors should be dead on straight as an arrow instead, two of the doors has an aesthetically noticeable skew. - The replacement to an existing door resulted in using the wrong hinge set for the existing mortices, inclusive of color – all the other hardware is brass they used chrome. Picture attached. - 3 of the four doors were either chipped or cracked. BBB was notified before the ‘final’ paint job, but they failed to address the issue. - I returned home the day they applied joint compound to find glops of joint compound on the floor, which I tracked around my house, and glops on wood work on a floor where no work was occurring. Pictures attached - Following the flooring installation, they left garbage in my basement for 2.5 weeks, then did not take it when they came back – in frustration I disposed of it myself. - Many of joints on the ¼ round trim molding were caulked excessively to cover up sloppy miters. - Cracked switchhplate was not replaced. Picture attached. - Sub-contractors have sub-contractors, who seem to be able to sub contract – direct employees of BBB other than the demo and electrical were rare. BBB demands using a lock box, Many people have the combination, providing little sense of security over access to the home. Overall, BBB does a bad job communicating, managing expectations and fails to deliver on their stated objectives at best they are contractors not craftsman."

"We had been planning a basement remodel for almost ten years. Our basement was a large, cold, and dim space that, in our minds, was underutilized square footage in our 1950s ranch. After looking through past work and meeting Chris in person, we entrusted Dynamic Basements Plus to bring our dream basement plan to life. Chris and his crew worked with us throughout the process to make optimal design and layout decisions, make crucial choices for electrical and plumbing, navigate the inspections and give us as much basement as we could get for our budget. We were impressed with Chris's attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond to make things right. While we did go a little over budget, the choices we made improved the original plan and were lifestyle design decisions. Basement remodels are no short-term project. Over the several months and different phases, Chris's crew was polite, on-time, and maintained a clean environment. My son even grew a fondness for Chris, giving him hugs when he'd arrive and missing him when the project was complete. We are thrilled with our new basement. We now have a warm, cozy, and well-lit place to work and relax and the kids have a space all their own to play. It's almost like having a new house. We enthusiastically recommend Dynamic Basements Plus."

When properly installed and maintained with regular sealing, granite countertops can last up to 100 years or more. Their exceptional durability comes from the natural strength of the stone and professional installation that ensures every detail is perfect. With consistent upkeep, your granite countertop will provide lasting beauty and performance for decades.
Granite countertop installations can be completed in a short time period and take between two hours and one day. The installation timeframe is determined by the countertop’s size, the number of slabs or tiles, and the required preparatory work. Professional installers coordinate precise measurements, material handling, and cutting to deliver a flawless finish without disrupting your routine.
There are several alternatives to granite countertops that provide excellent performance and visual appeal. Marble offers a timeless, luxurious look, quartz delivers superior strength and low maintenance, and laminate provides a cost-effective and stylish solution. Each option comes with distinct installation requirements and care profiles, allowing you to choose based on design preference and budget.
Granite countertops boost home value by combining enduring durability with refined aesthetics. Their sophisticated appeal and low-maintenance properties enhance kitchen functionality and property desirability, contributing to a significant return on investment. High-quality granite installation results in a modern, appealing space that elevates overall home value, assisting homeowners in recovering a substantial portion of the installation cost.
