"This company is fantastic. They went above and beyond what was required for a small project that I didn't have the time to do myself. It's so difficult to find good people to do these jobs, so I was really grateful for the fast, reliable, and high quality service. I would hire them again in a heart beat. They got right back to me when I initially made the request for service, and even though they said they were busy, they went out of their way to accommodate my request in a short span of time. They also communicated consistently and reliably when I messaged them about the project. This company gets my highest endorsement."

"Lenny and Lisa are great. During the demolition phase, Lenny took great care to cover our hardwood floors and cleaned thoroughly while removing the countertops and backsplash which really helped to keep the dust level down. Lisa recommended vendors for our granite, tile backsplash and sink - they were all so helpful. We have never done a kitchen renovation before and were a little anxious about the process and making choices. Lenny allayed our fears and was spot on with suggestions. Lisa was always available for communication and answering questions. The sub-contractors were all excellent, personable and professional. The whole job was finished ahead of schedule which allowed for our 18 month old granddaughter to come for an earlier visit! Overall we are thrilled with the outcome and will definitely use Apple Wood for future projects!"

"We had a bathroom remodel done by Charlie and had several major issues. The plumbing on the tub was not installed correctly which caused water damage to our kitchen ceiling the first time we used it. Charlie did "repair" it but it was poorly done. I ended up withholding the last payment of $400 to put towards hiring another contractor to repair correctly. The $400 did not cover the cost of the repair and the full ceiling repaint that was required. The tub that was installed squeaked since day one and has not been properly fixed. To have the tub re-installed correctly is would cost around $2,000-$2500 based on two quotes I got. Charlie's solution was to cut a whole in the bedroom closet wall to shim the tub. With all the issues we had I told him I would rather have some else repair it. He said he could fix it for free or give me $200 towards fixing it. The tub still squeaks two years later every time we use it. Almost 1.5 years after the bathroom remodel we found poor electrical wiring in the attic for the bathroom vent. Charlie did apologize and paid to have Custom Electric come and install it correctly. I am just glad we found the issue before it caused any damage. There are other smaller issues as well but you get the idea I went with Charlie and Granite State General Contractors based on all the great reviews and ended up with a lot of issues so please take this into consideration when making your decision."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Brattleboro, VT

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.
