"Carl did a great job from the start. He came over to my house, he presented his work credenrials and showed me some samples of his work. He made me feel comfortable the whole way and felt no pressure at all which was the primary reason I hired him. Carls team also scheduled the Job within the following week and finished in just 2 days which is huge because being without a shower is tough. Carl did great work and was envolved the whole way. From picking the design to even getting right to work along side his team. He even has a person that cleans right behind the crew. I would recommend him to anyone looking for quality work and at a fair price. "

"I couldn’t be any happier with the work done by Endor Group Inc and would highly recommend them. Dane is everything you could possibly hope for in a contractor: 1. He is honest. If he wasn’t 100% confident that he could complete the task, he has expert resources he could reach out to or sub contract through to make sure that job is done right. 2. He has all the right tools to complete the job and do it neatly. 3. He is very meticulous. I thought I was OCD, but everything Dane did was done perfectly, and if anything needed fixed he would do whatever he had to in order to get it done right. 4. He is punctual. This is probably the biggest one for me. It was such a relief to work with Dane because his communication was impeccable. He actually showed up when he said he would, but if something changes he will let you know as far in advance as he can. I can’t thank Dane and Endor Group enough for helping my wife and I turn this into the house we’ve always dreamed of!"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Canandaigua, 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.
