"We had a great experience working with Top Bros construction and remodeling. They fully removed our tile and wood flooring and installed LVP that we had provided. They also installed new trim and baseboards throughout, which look great. They were timely and efficient. We are very happy with the outcome!"

Gordan’s crew were all terrific. Professional, hard working, and always cleaned up before leaving for the night. Highly recommend!"

"Ryan was great and easy to work with. He helped us through the process. The work was very good and the cost was reasonable. Ryan and his crew were very professional and respectful. They were always on time and never felt like they were working on other projects and and never felt like they were falling behind. We love the remodel and everyone that has come over have been super impressed. We would recommend Ryan and his team for your remodel needs."

"HIRE THESE GUYS!!! Donâ t pay more for big name remodelers. We had a kitchen and master bath remodel as well as putting new flooring in basement and kids bathroom. The quality is exceptional. Johnny and Pablo were the team at our home. Both are very talented craftsmen with a keen focus on detail. No aspect was overlooked or taken for granted. The glass and tile work in our shower was fantastic as was the tile and cabinetry work in the kitchen. The owner, Ed, was terrific to work with and lived up to all our expectations. I canâ t recommend these guys enough. Pricing was right in our budget. Very, very impressed! Will definitely use them again!"

"Angelo Pecoraro, the owner of A.P. Builder, was a pleasure to work with from start to finish on our major remodeling project of adding a sunroom to our home. Out of many contractors I called to get an estimate, he was the only one willing to provide options to have the project fit our budget. Once we agreed to move forward, he worked diligently with the architect and village to get the permits finalized (which is a difficult task in my town). Once the work started, he provided almost daily updates of the work that will be completed and any anticipated inspections (which we passed easily). He also reached out himself to finalize details from big items like windows to small ones like the molding. The result was a beautiful sunroom and deck which I receive compliments on regularly. Do yourself a favor and for your next major home remodel/renovation work with Angelo and A.P. Builder!"

"Extremely pleased with the basement remodel. KSRP team was helpful, responsive and professional. Work included: framing, windows, drywall, electrical, lighting, flooring and painting. Not one complaint. Job price was really good and would have paid more based on what was ultimately delivered. I recommend working with KSRP."

"Everyone I dealt with was amazing! Brian and Daryl were so wonderful and came up with another solution to keep me in my budget range. They were very patient and answered any and all questions I had and made sure that i understood everything. The 2 guys that did the install were courtesy and kept me apprised to what was going on. They did a beautiful job and were very careful in making sure that everything was completely cleaned up! I will definitely use this company in the future if I ever need any other bathroom renovations done."

"Great Work! Very punctual top notch work for a affordable price. I made some changes in the middle of the project and they were still able to finish the project on time. The workers are very polite and respectful. They also clean up everyday before they leave. We highly recommend this company. Frank the owner and his men are very knowledgeable about the work they perform and they pay attention to detail. The prices they charge are lower then the competition but do a superior job and they work with alternative materials to fit your budget. We highly highly recommend Ultra Source Performance for any of your remodeling jobs! Ken and Terri from McHenry Illinois."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Algonquin, IL

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.
