"Joe and Chris exceeded all of our expectations with the job. The job consisted of having to remove the left side door frame and molding from our bathroom door which they took great care in doing thus minimizing any destruction of the plaster walls. They expertly installed the new frame and rehung the door perfectly. They also repaired out front exterior door which was out of plumb and not closing properly. And also replaced our exterior basement door. They also replaced a damaged tongue and groove knotty pine board in our stairwell leading to our upstairs bedroom. Joe and Chris explained everything they had to do to complete the jobs and Joes estimate was reasonable in price. They are both gentlemen with a professional attitude, friendly and easy to talk to about the work and a variety of other topics not related to the job at hand. I highly recommend them."

"I have to say, THIS is the only contractor I use. I couldn’t be happier with their work. I had a great experience working with John Sala Construction. John and his son Jay are absolutely incredible. They were just a pleasure to work with from the initial estimate through the final reveal. They are thorough, and clear with everything. They listened carefully to my needs and preferences and provided expert guidance throughout the process. When they were done they left my home clean and tidy. I highly recommend using John Sala Construction. Their craftsmanship and attention to detail in the finished space are truly impressive and worth every penny."

"Wow. We had previously gotten a quote from PJD on another project and really liked them, but they were completely booked when we wanted the work to be done and now we understand why. So glad we reached out to them for our deck repair project. Steve was very straightforward and understood exactly what needed to be done before we could point out to him what we thought needed to be done. Not only did he not try to up-sell us on any fancy add-ons, he and his team paid close attention to the details of the work. We felt they always went above and beyond.  Steve gave us daily reports of how things were going and what--if any--surprises he had found. He and his team were polite, considerate and efficient. And the price was absolutely fair (we got 5 quotes). We plan on hiring them for many projects to come, even if it means working around their busy schedule. <br />"

"AMAZING RESULTS!!! I cannot recommend Noah highly enough!!!!! But here goes: Awesomely Responsive, Creative, Dependable, Professional, Friendly. We had really good conversations about the project. We decided to move the stairs to the side of the deck, which really worked out beautifully. Importantly, Noah found the most affordable way for us to get the results we wanted. He gutted pretty much everything, added 3 footings, new joists, etc. moved the stairs to the side, squared off the deck, and removed three previous footings and 4’x4’ cement landing pad – giving us a smooth usable patio. To keep the cost in our range, he used top grade pressurized wood (instead of cedar or Trex which cost more than we wanted to spend.) Routing all the top rails created a really nice effect – more like indoor railings. He also designed a picture frame border all around the deck flooring which really looks beautiful (and hides the floorboard edges.) After the wood cures, we'll be staining it to match the existing privacy fence. Noah is the contractor you want for your next project. I'm serious! His expert crew worked non-stop for two solid days to get this job done. Long hours, and a wonderful clean-up! He was terrific about scheduling. When he had the chance to do the job sooner by scheduling it on a weekend, he took it. Our neighbors are now suffering from "deck envy." I couldn't have asked for more!"

"Tony arrived right on time. <br /> Old door was removed and new door installed in about 3 hours. <br /> All materials were removed, and site was cleaned up. <br /> I have dealt with many contractors over the years. I have to admit Tony is the best. <br /> Very professional. <br /> Well organized. He had all the tools and 'spare parts'  needed to get the job done. <br /> Workmanship was excellent. <br /> Answered all my questions. <br /> If you ever need a contractor with Tony's background I would highly recommend him. <br /> He is 'Good'! <br />"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Amenia, NY

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.
