"Mighty basement did a great job on my basement remodel. I had company coming in July and Scot Coleman made sure the remodel was completed by my target date. He was supervising the job and did a tremendous job. Scot was very professional but at the same time was attentive to what I wanted. He was great to work with. I would highly recommend Might Basements and bath."

"They went above and beyond. They treated my house like it was theirs. They wouldnâ t just put my roof on but they checked to make sure it was ok to put the new shingles on. They were respectful of my premises. They got the work done and cleaned up all their messes. I would hire them again because they are very honest!"

"Preferred roofing & Exteriors messaged me within half hour of messaging them. Fastest of the 3 companies I messaged. Mike showed up, he was professional, very knowledgeable of what was needed to be done. He inspected my attic and roof and found the issue. He did not charge me a service fee like the other two companies were trying to do. Super cool guy. If You were to ever need anything he's your guy. Thanks Mike"

"Wow! I can't say enough positive things about the roofing services provided by Aloha Construction. Trevor Peterson handled nearly everything, making the entire process stress free (working around my schedule, dropping off roofing samples at my work, assessing my roof on short notice and handling EVERYTHING). From start to finish, they exceeded my expectations and delivered outstanding results. First and foremost, the customer service was impeccable. The entire team was friendly, professional, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure my satisfaction. They took the time to listen to my concerns, answer all my questions, and provide expert advice. The quality of their workmanship was truly top-notch. The roofing crew was punctual, skilled, and efficient. They completed the project in a timely manner without compromising on the attention to detail. The end result was a beautifully installed roof that not only enhances the curb appeal of my home but also provides excellent protection. What impressed me the most was their commitment to transparency and integrity. They provided a detailed and fair estimate, and there were no hidden costs or surprises along the way. They also kept me informed throughout the entire process, updating me on the progress and addressing any issues promptly. I highly recommend Aloha Construction to anyone in need of roofing services. Their exceptional customer service, superior workmanship, and overall professionalism make them stand out from the rest. I am extremely satisfied with their work and will definitely turn to them for any future roofing needs."

"From start to finish they are very professional. What a classy act. We had a metal roof installed. The kind that looks like asphalt. If you are on the fence about this... don't be it was the best investment we made to our home. First the neighbors said it was so beautiful and they could not tell it was metal. Second after installation we had some sleet one day and we could not hear it on the roof. Thirdly it was 30 MPH winds yesterday, need I say more no roof lost and warm inside with very little noise. Lastly it has a lifetime warranty .... LET IT RAIN, SNOW AND BLOW... our metal roof can hold up."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in East-brooklyn, IL

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.
