"The Tough Builders team was absolutely amazing! I am finishing our basement and added a shower, toilet, sink and injector pump and Hector and his team from Tough Builders did just awesome job. Not only did they have to move/reframe walls, relocate electrical work and plumb the bathroom to the pump, they did so much more. This is best team I have could have chosen and we are so happy with the work they did. I cannot say enough about Tough Builders and in fact, they will be the ones that finish our basement out. I look forward to seeing our basement finished and the next review I will submit pictures. If you need any work done to your house, I would highly recommend Tough Builders! 5+ stars!!! Thank you Hector...you are awesome!!!!!"

"eS&K did a great job, was very responsive to questions and made my wife and I as the home owner very comfortable before and during the renovation of our master bathroom.  The cost for labor was very reasonable.  The owner provide great advice throughout the job and coordinated many efforts.  The sub-contractors used by S&K were timely and did very nice work.  We are already working out the details of our next bathroom to be renovated by S&K.  S&K discussed our needs, provided a draft design and coordinated as well as advised us on products and options.  S&K came to our house to discuss the project when we were available and worked around our schedule.  S&K actually works regularly with J&J Tile who did our kitchen and laundry room which was great since we knew the quality of their work.  I would recommend S&K for any home remodeling and renovation."

"Work was performed efficiently and every effort made to limit dust from drilling into concrete flooring from entering second floor. System installed is working effectively and, despite heavy rainfall, we have a dry basement. We weren't sure if the system would resolve a different issue of water coming under the exterior doors (we agreed to wait and see before doing extra work) but we have had no more flooding there either. Extremely pleased with Aqueduct; they were much cheaper than the competition and offered a solution that worked with our existing system which other companies did not. Highly recommend!"

"Several rainy days interrupted the install, but when it wasn't raining he was here. Very professional work. Very knowledgeable. Had good assistance (great work ethic). Definitely would use for additional projects. I have had many compliments on the porch since the work was finished. <br />"

"Our real estate agent recommended Prestige - we were negotiating with the builder, and at one point the builder hinted they might be willing to build a deck instead of reducing price, so we asked Prestige for an estimate. They sent someone out, returned with an estimate. Builder backed away from that... but it still didn't mean we didn't need a deck. We also needed to have a fenced in area attached to the house so we could let our dogs out to do their thing. When we called to talk more about the deck, and to ask for an estimate on the fence, they were a little edgy about doing the whole design discussion remotely, but I was in NJ, couldn't get down to VA until we closed on the house, and needed that fence in as soon as possible after closing so we could move our dogs down. So, we did a couple of scheduled calls, where we swapped photos of the property and back of the house, and designs, and they decided they were OK working remotely, particularly since the fencing wasn't terribly fancy or a huge area, and the deck we wanted was simple. We scheduled the fence work to begin day after closing, and the deck to begin later in the month. As we approached closing, we decided we'd like to find a way to not completely cover the walk out basement sliding glass door, nor a large window. Another call, where Prestige suggested just rotating the deck so that the long edge went away from the house, which kept the window and sliding glass door open. Really minor changes to costs as the stairs were now a bit more complex. We asked them about extending the fenced yard area, and the designer came back with photos of why that would be hugely difficult - the fenced area was already pushing the limits of fencing on an incline. Nice. Good explanation - not just "no" but here's what is likely to go wrong, and here's what you're likely to be unhappy about. Really, you pay companies like this not just for their labor, but for their knowledge. They gave good advice. As usual, something glitched on closing so it had to slide one day, and Prestige was fine with that. They showed up really early the day after the ACTUAL closing and after introducing me to everyone on the crew, jumped straight into work. Shortly after they started, they discovered that the propane tank had been moved slightly since they'd done pictures, and was now in the way of where the design was going to go. That also meant that the planned location of the gate would be on a steep incline, not an ideal thing. We talked a bit about how to change the design to have the same linear feet, adjusting a bit on the other end of the house and moving the gate. The crew talked with the office, and we were once again in action. The change did require them to do a little fabrication on a gate post since it was now opening a different direction, but that went smoothly. That fence was not an easy task- the yard slopes STEEPLY downhill, but they managed to get the fence inches from the ground everywhere anyway, in one case they did a little creative landscaping work, digging here to put the dirt there, where there was no way to make the fence work otherwise. In other words - they delivered on the PURPOSE of the fence, to keep the dogs in, and not just on the design of X feet by X feet. They were able to start the deck earlier than expected. Again, they arrived to start very early, and again made sure I'd met everyone on the crew. They worked over the course of a week, and did a nice job of tidying up each afternoon before they left. A few things about the deck were new to me - like the design of the solar lights - and they gave me great explanations of how they worked, why these particular lights were better than some others, same with a few questions I had about the railing. When they were done, they cleaned up the yard really well, spread grass seed and straw over all the disturbed areas. Very nice. That day I realized that a neighbor had their deck started the same day as ours... but they were still just framed in, we were complete. Overall a great experience. Whenever I talked with people at the office, from receptionist to the owner, they were pleasant and friendly. Both crews were really nice guys - always said hello when I came out, always ready to answer any questions. And, they worked hard. All the work got done exactly on the schedule they'd given me, and ahead of what I'd expected. We did get another bid and it was so wildly off base I spent some time talking with them, and basically they really hadn't been listening well. Prestige always listened, always asked questions, always explained. We'd hire them again in a heartbeat. I told the owner I'd be happy to be a reference for them. It was clear to me that the owner and everyone else values the company's reputation. That's who you want doing work."

"We couldn't be happier!  After spending several weeks comparing the sheds at Home Depot & Lowes, as well as several other big national and regional players, we luckily stumbled upon C&R.  We ended up with a better-built shed, with better lumber & materials, for several hundred dollars less than we'd have paid elsewhere. <br /> Scheduling was easy, with communication over email and phone.  The work was done over the course of two days by the owner, Ray, and his brother.  At the end of the project they left the site perfectly clean. <br /> We were so satisfied with the work Ray and Rick did on the shed that we're using C&R to do an upcoming master bath remodel as well! <br />"

"I had hired these guys before with a good experience, so I gave it another shot. I know a little too much for my own good, so I had a few questions before the job was done regarding supplies that I needed. I wanted to buy my own materials because I'm nuts. They had no problem with this and told me exactly what kind of wire to buy via text message. Mike was sent over and I explained everything. He needed to fish a lot of wire down under the kitchen floor to the laundry room and then under the finished basement ceiling about 25 feet to the breaker. This guy can fish wire like a boss. He only had to cut 2 holes in my ceiling. I think I'm just going to cover them with access panels for the next time wire needs to be run to the breaker. I like Murphy because everything is easy. I can just book a block of time with fairly transparent pricing and they come by and knock it out. And - they don't give you any problems about having your own materials so an intermediate DIY'er like me can get some specific stuff."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Abingdon, VA

Finishing a basement turns unused square footage into livable space and returns up to 70% of what you spend when you sell your home. Beyond that resale boost, you gain a playroom, home office, or guest suite you can start enjoying right away. That mix of daily comfort and solid return on investment (ROI) makes basement finishing one of the smartest upgrades you can tackle.

In some parts of the country—especially lots on swamps, high water tables, or other wetlands—local codes prohibit basements. Saturated soil puts constant pressure on foundation walls and lets water seep in faster than any sump pump can handle. 

If your property sits on waterlogged ground, building on a slab or crawl space is often safer, more affordable, and code-compliant.

Most basements wrap up in four to eight weeks. Framing takes three to five days, with electrical and plumbing rough-ins following over the next week. Add five days for drywall, two to three for flooring, and another week for paint, trim, and punch-list items. 

Delays can happen if materials run late or your contractor’s calendar is packed, so build in a little cushion when you plan.

Whether a finished basement counts toward your home’s official square footage depends on local rules. Many areas only include below-grade space if it has code-approved egress, fully finished walls, ceilings, and floors, plus consistent heating. 

Check with your local assessor or building department before you start; meeting those standards can affect taxes, appraisals, and resale value.

Building codes require a checklist: dedicated heat and electrical service, a code-approved stairway, and at least one egress window or exterior door. Walls, ceilings, and floors must be fully finished and meet insulation, ventilation, and fire-separation standards. If you add a bedroom, you’ll also need a closet, proper clearances, and safe exits. If you change the layout later, be ready to update the space so every new room still meets today’s code.
