"We hired Bill to build a dormer for a second floor bathroom. From start to finish, he and his crew were professional and trustworthy, kept a clean job site and were friendly. In addition to holding high standards for his craft, he provided well-taken advice on some of the more difficult aspects of the job. We highly recommend him and would hire him again."

"The plumber and his assistant arrived on time. The first thing they did was to lay a canvas sheet on our floors to prevent any damage or dirt. The heater replacement went smoothly. They cleaned up after the installment and the fee was reasonable. We have been using SureFix for about 10 years. SureFix has installed hardwood flooring, basement and bathroom remodeling, painting, and a few more things. Whenever we needed any work done, we would contact Henry at SureFix. Henry gives excellent customer service and is friendly. We have never had any problems or complaints dealing with SureFix. There are some dishonest contractors out there. But if you want a prompt, honest, experienced and skilled contractor, SureFix is the one."

"If you are thinking about a remodeling job for your home, Taproot is the company to call! Their quote was very competitive, and they showed up when they told me they would, which is unusual nowadays. They were efficient, completed the projects when they said they would, and best of all at a fair price."

"Amazing! Amazing! Amazing! The guys at Contek were super professional. They did a great job. We had wood paneling removed and replaced with drywall. We had very weird closets in the room so they built a large walk in closet while keeping doors for the other closets so we still had storage. They installed a Mr. Slim heating/ac unit which works fantastic. They did all the painting and trim work for us as well. The did an amazing job. They had a key to our house and I never felt worried about them being in our house while we weren't home. They were there in our house alone for two weeks plus. Everything we wanted fixed they did without any issues. The best part there was absolutely NO PRESSURE! Corey gives you the most detailed estimate you will ever see and breaks the pricing down for possible add-ons. If you don't add them on no problem. He works with your budget. We are planning on putting a patio in and we'll definitely call them."

"I actually found T&J Construction on Home Advisor and thank God I did. First and foremost my new master bathroom looks amazing! Terrence and Chris did an incredible job on the total remodel which included the shower, whirlpool tub, vanity, toilet and tile as well as plumbing and electrical. It was great to have "One Stop Shopping" with T&J Construction. Terrence also gave me some great ideas to make my master bathroom more functional and roomy. Terrence and Chris were on time every day and very clean and respectful during construction. As for cost, T&J was very reasonable for the work being done and worth every penny. I couldn't be more pleased with T&J Construction and highly recommend them to anyone with a home project."

"Recently I hired Rigas to change the drop ceiling tiles in my barbershop and overall, I am so happy with the results. He was extremely professional, and he kept me in the loop throughout the job. It wound up being very tedious work. Halfway through I realized I had hired the perfect guy for the job. The quality of his work is excellent and his attention to detail was just as good. I am so happy with the final product. I wouldn?t hesitate to hire him for another project. I highly recommend Regal Peak Contracting! ?????"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Bethlehem, PA

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.
