"Beautiful Basements did an outstanding job finishing our basement. Dan provided a very thorough estimate/proposal. It detailed all the work to be done and the materials to be used so we knew what to expect and what we were getting right from the start. Ashley was a tremendous help selecting paint colors, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and carpeting to achieve the look that we wanted. Fred, Johnny, Jensen, Devin, Joe, David, and Jessica all worked on tasks in the basement at various times during the project. They were all very professional, friendly, and easy to work with. They were very responsive whenever we had questions about the work. They arrived punctually each day and let us know if there was going to be a change in work time. They worked hard and were efficient at completing the project. They were well qualified to do the work assigned and did a great job. Beautiful Basements did an excellent job communicating throughout the project. We received texts letting us know what the next task was, who would be performing the work, and what time they would arrive. We received texts the evening before, or the same morning, if there were daily changes due to unforeseen circumstances. We are very pleased with the results of our basement finishing project and highly recommend Beautiful Basements for your basement project."

A complete and total makeover consisting of new granite countertops, new appliances, new cabinetry, creation of new recessed lighting, painting, some carpentry, and creation of a new pantry. The work crews were on time daily and were both professional and personal. The owner of the company regularly was on site and part of the work crew.

"Jayson and Tristan were great! They were very responsive and easy to work with. After contacting them, they came out within a few days to look at what I wanted done, I needed a set of stairs built for the side entry of my house. They took into account what I wanted and discussed with me how they would get it done. I had an old set of stairs that didn't reach the door so I wanted a landing coming out of the door that would cover up the old stairs and then steps that would lead down to the driveway. They did exactly what I wanted and added a few details that I did not think of. In total it took 2 days to build which is the time frame they said it would take. I will definitely be using them again for any other projects that come up."

I enjoy the entire process; from design, installation, and the finishing touches of new outdoor living spaces. I worked in this field most of my life, since I was born and raised in Europe where I worked with stone, masonry and pavers frequently. After I moved to America, I decided to pursue a career in hardscaping. I have now worked in this industry for many years and I will continue to provide quality workmanship. We started in this industry in 2000. We describe our business as Family owned and operated. Let us elevate your backyard into a stylish outdoor living space, perfect for entertaining and creating lasting memories with family!. We provide expert project planning, professional paver installation, unique vertical features, and ongoing maintenance to seamlessly blend your indoor and outdoor spaces.
"The project went wonderfully. In June of 2024, Hegedus Hardscapes removed an old 1970’s porch, and installed a beautiful, new Unilock porch with adequate drainage, using adequate pitch and new pipes. The overall look is exceptional, like a European grotto, with a perimeter edged in sandstone. Hegedus Hardscapes is a family business, whose members all work hard, and to a high standard. If you are a picky customer and find it hard to locate an outdoor contractor with standards as high as yours, then, look no further; Hegedus Hardscapes is the company for you!"

In most states, yes—you can build a guest house, but every city or county sets its own zoning rules and building codes. Before breaking ground, check local ordinances, confirm lot setbacks, and secure the right permits. A local contractor or design-build firm can walk you through the paperwork and site requirements so your project starts on solid legal footing.
Yes—homeowners often tap a few different financing tools. A home-equity line of credit (HELOC) lets you borrow against your equity as you need funds. If you prefer a lump sum tied directly to the project, a short-term construction loan can roll into a second mortgage once the build is complete. Cash-out refinancing is another option: you replace your current mortgage with a larger one and use the difference to cover construction costs.
When you build a guest house, you’re creating a separate structure for hosting visitors without the full amenities needed for permanent living. An accessory dwelling unit, however, includes a complete kitchen and bathroom, meeting building codes for a long-term residence. This key difference makes an ADU ideal for long-term occupancy or rental income, adding enduring value to your property.
How many rooms you need depends on how you plan to use the space. Aim for one bedroom per every one or two occupants to make sure everyone has enough privacy and comfort. Added living and dining areas give you extra functionality, especially for rental use or long-term stays.
Most homeowners pick somewhere between 600 and 1,500 square feet to fit all the essentials. Make sure your design supports one to two occupants per bedroom and includes enough common areas for comfortable daily living. A well-proportioned layout boosts both functionality and property value.
No—a guest house isn’t just a bump-out on your main home. A bump-out is a small extension within an existing room for extra seating or storage. In contrast, you build a guest house as a standalone building with its own foundation and amenities, giving you a fully separate living area that can boost your property’s versatility and value.
