"Great experience. Excellent communication. Beyond happy with how our kitchen remodel turned out. John and his team were awesome throughout the process of our kitchen remodel. When we reached out for an estimate - John was here the next day and we got the process started. We encountered a few delays that were out of our control, but John was there to update us every step of the way. I would recommend this company to anyone. 10/10. Also, Ramey is an absolute rockstar!"

"The HomePro Remodelers, with their exceptional skills, helped make our project a huge success. They took extraordinary effort in cleaning up and were very considerate of our surroundings. Since our back porch enclosure has added so much to our lives, we are considering having our front porch also enclosed."

"It was very worthwhile to use this service because the decorator answered some critical questions and kept me from making costly mistakes.  It is a good place to start and the price was right for what she did.  She spent 30 minutes on the phone talking to me but before that she spent a significant amount of time looking over photos and measurements that I submitted to her by email. She put a lot of time into the consult.  This service would be great for choosing wall colors, flooring, and fabric for furniture.  I will definitely keep her contact information for future projects.

"Work was done on duplex I purchased that needed remodeled to get into good rental condition. Original time frame for work was not met, work was done 4-6 weeks after goal time frame. Outside factors contributed to delays and not just the contractor. Original bid was just for labor only, asked for bid including materials. Contractor estimated materials and ended up being off by $3k-$4k. Not a huge issue. Noticed different workers there and appeared as if employee turnover and stability was a problem. Owner Scott, was very nice and easy to communicate with. I liked working with him. Would have preferred to pay funds to business and not to owner's personal name which he requested. Agreed to do so. Contractor was adamant about draws and could not float work or labor for more than a week or two. Quality of finishing work was satisfactory initially. In the 1-2 months following the rehab, I had to have another contractor correct many items. Following the main job, the items that needed corrected were, not properly sealed glass block windows, wrong type of grout used in kitchen floors, dishwasher not installed and sealed correctly, minor electric issues, new toilet installed leaked and caused damage to ceiling below, wooden deck was not correctly secured and/or repaired. A few blemishes in finishing work needed corrected. I had a single contractor who could handle those items himself and preferred to use him rather than having the contractor come back. I needed a contracting company with multiple employees to do the project though and selected SAW Contracting after getting quotes and talking to 2 other companies. Scott beat both in price, was based locally, and made a good first impression so he was hired. I feel he probably underbid and the additional fees paid to correct some of the work and the overages on materials, still were roughly even with higher bids I received. I asked for rental quality work, so I can not accurately recommend him for good residential quality. OVerall I'd consider using Scott again, but would have a more detailed contact and agreement with him, with time restrictions, detailed material and labor figures included. I've done multiple rehab and residential projects and it is not easy to find a good contractor at a good price who works quickly on bigger projects. I've used others and had similar experiences. As long as the right expectations are there, Scott could be a good fit in the right project."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Carmichaels, 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.
