Get matched with top basement remodelers in Dumfries, VA

"We had an amazing experience with Total Renovating LLC for our basement finishing and remodel! From start to finish, they helped us stay within our budget while still delivering top-notch quality. Their showroom made it easy to choose flooring and tile, which was a huge help in bringing our vision to life. The entire crew was professional, respectful of our property, and incredibly friendly with our two young boys. They also gave us the space we needed while working efficiently to complete the project. The craftsmanship is outstanding, and we couldn’t be happier with the final result—a beautiful new basement space complete with a legal bedroom (including an egress window)/office, full bathroom, and gym that is all up to code. Communication was seamless throughout, thanks to our project manager, Tyrone, who kept us updated and made sure everything ran smoothly. And a big shout-out to Russel who clearly takes pride in delivering a high-quality finished product."

"For almost a decade I've wanted my unfinished basement remodeled, but I was always too skeptical to invest in a project of this scale. However, through Angi and based on reviews, I went with Total Renovating. Russell and his crew were awesome. They worked within my budget and immediately hit the ground running. Communication was always easy and I was given advanced notice of when workers/inspectors would be by throughout the entire process. And the work was excellent; no corners cut (figuratively). I have no "before" photos to share so these pics don't show exactly how far this basement's come in the last 5 weeks."

"Gary Golman and REO-ServicePro, Inc are incredible! We needed work done quickly to comply with a housing inspection prior to sale of our home and Gary and his team were responsive, thorough, and timely. Gary completed the work ahead of schedule and on-budget. I was impressed that Gary replied within an hour to my initial request for an estimate and then came to our house that same afternoon. He quickly - and accurately - assessed what needed to be done, took thorough measurements, and sent us a detailed estimate within 24 hours. His team got to work within days and Gary was personally involved with daily oversight as well as some of the work. Professional, courteous and efficient do not fully describe how satisfied we were with the work done by REO-ServicePro and Gary Golman. We highly recommend him for any renovation, reconstruction, or new addition for any home. A++++"

"Excellent service. My project started with a kitchen remodel, and when I saw how professional the team was and the outstanding and the meticulous work, I asked them to help with other projects. So I had them do a partial basement remodel, and then repairs to the outside steps. More work coming your way LFC. THANK YOU!"

"HIVEX is truly the exemplar of a well-run, high quality, superior customer-service-providing, American small business. If you are having your basement finished or remodeled, do yourself and your home the great favor of contacting HIVEX for a consultation and estimate. From the first meeting, Chris and his team are beyond impressive, straightforward, clear in communicating, and honest, clear and consistent in financial estimates, and in payment and work schedules. They handle all permitting and municipality coordination which is, by itself, an enormous value. They have basement finishing down to a science, with the additional talent and patience to create and add cool, unique, customer-specific requests. HIVEX's work is top-notch and they stand by it. SO happy we found HIVEX! You will be too."

"This is our second time working with Kevin and he is absolutely fantastic to work with. During Covid he built us a 2 car detached garage and we had such a great experience that when we decided to finish our basement we didn't call anyone else. Kevin met with us and provided us a quote to finish our basement and we decided right then that we were ready to move forward. Kevin was very professional and thorough and always kept us informed of our basement project every step of the way. Whenever we would have any questions he was very prompt with getting back to us and answering our questions. He started on our basement on time and finished on time. The family room area looks amazing. He had great ideas for a snack bar that we hadn't thought about and are so glad that we ended up adding it. It's so nice now to be watching tv and be able to walk over to the snack bar and grab a soda out of the fridge or put a bag of popcorn in the microwave and not have to run upstairs. The granite counter top for the snack bar looks great! We also added two cabinets and fridge under the counter. We also had a full bathroom added and the tile work turned out amazing. The whole bathroom looks great! When Kevin saw our basement and all my holiday decor and craft supplies he realized that I really needed a place to organize and store all this stuff. He was able to build me a closet that maximized the space and I was able to get all my "stuff" in there. We are looking at remodeling our master bathroom and kitchen in a couple years and we won't be wasting our time looking for any other contractors. Kevin will be the person we call."

"I'll start with the TLDR blurb: Gary, Junior, Kenny and Clint from Two by Four did a fantastic job on my basement. I'm very happy with their professionalism, workmanship, and candor. 
Now for the long version. We recently moved into a new house which has a finished basement. The problem was that there was a weird shaped room with no windows, no air registers and electrical receptacles high on the wall as if a countertop used to be there. In short, we wanted this room removed and the basement to have a completely open concept. After contacting multiple contractors about the work and getting bids, I happened to find the Angie's List Big Deal advertising 35 hours of general contractor work for $1500 by Two by Four ("2x4") Construction. Great deal, so I purchased it. 
After some back and forth with Gary, the owner, we found a mutually agreeable day for him to come and look at the job. We walked through the basement, talked about what I wanted done, and he understood exactly what I wanted, We even talked about a support column in the room that might contain plumbing which would make installing a sink easier in the future. (Something my wife and I are certainly interested in doing somewhere down the line.) After everything was gone over Gary explained that the job would most likely take longer than 35 man-hours to complete and electrical work was charged on a per hour basis because you just can't tell what's behind the walls until you take them down. Considering two guys at 9 hours a day comes to 18 man-hours, the 35 hours from the deal would go pretty fast. Gary provided an estimate of what it would cost for the work, not including the electrical, and we decided that we would just subtract the $1500 already paid from whatever the end cost ended up being.
On the day work was scheduled to begin, Junior (Gary's son) and Clint showed up early and was ready to roll. I went over the details of the job with both of them to make sure we were on the same page. Junior wasn't sure any electrical work would be done the first day so we didn't discuss that too much. After that, they started working immediately. About 11:30am that morning I got a call from Kenny who was doing the electrical work to ask a few questions on the location for the pendant lights and where to relocate the switches. I had everything pre-measured and drawn out for him so it was easy to know where everything went. He also explained that the wiring in our basement was a mess and gave me several options to fix it. We decided to create an access panel in the ceiling and he fixed the wiring and brought everything up to code. On the advice of Gary, I purchased additional laminate to fix the holes in the floor where the walls were removed. Turns out the stuff I bought was too thick to match what was already there. 2x4 went to Home Depot and purchased the right stuff (and even matched it much better than I did to what was already there!) and fixed it all up. The stuff they bought was even cheaper than the stuff I got! After the first day, much to my surprise, the work looked at least 75% finished.
On the second day, Kenny and Clint came to finish up the electrical and the drywall guy came to start patching everything up. Kenny called me around 3:00pm and informed me that the 35 hours would end at 4pm. At that time they would pack up and leave. He said that there was still some drywall work that needed to be finished but it was my call on whether to have the guy come back on Wednesday to finish it up. He explained what needed to be finished, how long it would take and how much extra it would cost. He was completely up-front about everything and I really appreciated that. We went ahead and scheduled the drywall guy to come and finish everything on Wednesday. 
On Wednesday, Kenny texted me when the drywall guy was finished and asked when he could come by that afternoon or on Thursday to do a final walk-through and pick up some equipment that was left in the basement. He came over at 7am on Thursday morning. All of the work was great. Kenny even gave me some tips on painting the ceiling and walls. The only minor negative about the whole job was finding left over materials and trash left on my back patio. It took all of 5 minutes to bag up and put out with the rest of the trash so not a big deal.
