"The "completed" project met our expectations but a couple of loose ends were not tied up (no biggie). Mark and Quincy worked hard and very professionally. Communication with the office was abominable. Time after time we were told to expect this or that follow up. Nope. Inspections were not scheduled in a timely manner. Trying to submit payments through Buildertrend was a nightmare. We were initially very impressed with Andrew and Will, but never heard from them again except to try to track down the project manager. This could be a great company but we suspect they have bitten off more than they can chew. We would not recommend Tri Cities Remodeling."

"So far Alan has been great and we are on schedule to complete by 5/29/15.  All of his direct employees and subs have been very polite and responsive.  And, they all speak very highly of Alan. 
I will update this review when we are finished with the job in 2 weeks.
So far, I would recommend Firm Foundation with hesitation.

"Very well! Nathan and his crew were always on time, had attention to detail and had good skills, which included all of the many aspects of remodeling that are needed. They paid close attention to what I wanted and were accommodating to any changes or additions I requested. They were always diligent to clean up after themselves and stayed focused to my project only; therefore, finishing on a timely manner. Lastly, they were a lot of fun and good humored. I would gladly hire them again!"

"OUTSTANDING! Chad and his crew are absolutely first class. They are prompt, professional, honest, hard working, clean and the quality of their work is second to none. I have utilized many contractors throughout the past and without a doubt Chad is the best I have worked with. Chad created a laundry room and installed a complicated laundry chute for us and worked with us to blend it in to a piece of antique furniture. Chad and his crew took the time to clean up each day after they finished and left the house as clean as when they arrived. Chad is very knowledgeable and easy to work with. Chad brought the project in under his estimate (which was priced fair to start with) and in the amount of time promised. I WILL use Chad Henry again in the future and have recommended him to my son for a remodel that he is planning. I highly recommend Chad Henry Construction for your home repair / remodel needs."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Bristol, TN

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.
