"We are thrilled with our newly repaired house! Kevin handled a variety of serious water damage problems efficiently, while communicating and listening well. We expected to lose our front deck, which had been improperly attached, but all that is fixed and ready to use. Kevin also built us a nice back porch. The big deal is that our house, which had been taking on unseen water damage for years, is now safe and secure. We are very happy with Kevin's work and I will definitely call him if I ever need more work done."

"Ben did a wonderful job on our kitchen remodel which included removal of a wall, new island built with cabinets, new flooring and general kitchen remodel. Ben clearly has a passion for cabinetry and woodworking. We have received wonderful comments on his cabinets and woodworking from friends and other vendors we used (counter install company). Only opportunity we saw for improvement were a couple small things which included price and services performed when a 3rd party contractor was hired by Ben. Overall would give an A and look forward to working with Wooden Hammer in the future."

"Jim was invaluable in the planning stage of the remodel with ideas and suggestions and he directed me in how and where to order products and materials in order to keep my cost down.  He started the demolition of the bathroom at the agreed upon time and finished the job in the time he had estimated.  Jim was prompt, professional and cleaned up at the end of each days work.   He was very good at problem solving when something unexpected came up and showed good attention to detail in his finish work.  I found him to be a man of integrity.  It was a pleasure working with him and the new bathroom is just what I was hoping for. "

"Top notch professionals. Build it Dan has done an amazing job each time they have done work on our home. Their employees are always on time, and work hard to get the job done in a timely manner. I absolutely highly recommend Build it Dan for any general or construction needs. We have been lucky to have worked together on several projects and the offer only quality work. Basement - I had great experience with the basement walk in remodeling. From the beginning Build it Dan was transparent with cost and was updated on the schedule. The team is professionals, skilled and always left my house clean. Always available to answer questions and responsive to any additions. We are completely satisfied and highly recommend BID for as my projects you may have. Backyard - they did suck a great job and were quick and efficient. Looks amazing and everyone always compliments the work. The step up was an awesome touch. The entire family is excited with the backyard and can’t wait to continue making memories. Thank you"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in East-middlebury, VT

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.
