"We hired Basement Kings to renovate our primary bath, a guest Bath, and our laundry room, and to rebuild our living room fireplace and do some minor upgrades to an outdoor porch. My husband and I could not be more impressed with Basement Kings and are very pleased with their work. I have worked with many contractors (for projects on my own home and for clients in my prior work), and BCM is head and shoulders above any I've worked with before. Salar was great at listening to and understanding every detail of our project and our needs, and he always let us know when to expect workers and what they would be doing. And not only do his workers show up when he says they will, but they also deliver high quality work. They are careful, precise, neat, professional, and friendly. And on top of all that, they completed the project ahead of schedule. It was a pleasure to work with them and we would trust them again with any renovation we have. Do not hesitate to call them for your project!"

"Ryan and associates did a GREAT job with my bathroom. I had an old jacuzzi tub removed, had them built a new shower where the tub was and put in a built in linen close in where the previous smaller shower stood. They removed and replaced the old tile, removed the previous "builder's mirror" and replaced the mirror and lights. It looks absolutely beautiful and I feel like I am entering a luxury hotel bathroom whenever I walk into it. I would absolutely hire Ryan again for any other projects. The prices were reasonable and the time spend to do quality work was great!!"

Start by asking a local contractor, architect, or interior designer for a detailed line‑item estimate. These pros can price out labor, materials, permits, and any specialty work, then flag areas where you can save. Once you have that breakdown, add 20% to the total to cover potential surprises, such as hidden water damage or code upgrades. This approach gives you a realistic budget before the first hammer swings.
In most cases, remodeling wins on price. Because you’re reusing the existing structure, you avoid foundation work, framing an entire shell, and many permit fees. Unless the home has severe structural problems, updating what you already own is the more budget‑friendly route than building an entirely new house from scratch.
Home renovation timelines hinge on scope. Cosmetic updates—such as new paint, fixtures, or flooring—can be completed in a few days or weeks. A multi-room gut renovation that involves moving walls or utilities can stretch to six months, and adding square footage can push the schedule past a year. Good planning and a clear contractor schedule help keep projects on track, so be sure to build extra time into the calendar for permit reviews and unforeseen repairs.
Before your home renovation work begins, contact your insurance agent to confirm that your current policy covers the project. Standard homeowners insurance usually protects against fire or storm damage during construction, but bigger upgrades—adding square footage, high‑end finishes, or new systems—can raise your home’s value beyond existing limits. If coverage falls short, ask about a renovation rider or a policy increase so you’re fully protected from day one to final walkthrough.
