"Hired them for 3 projects I have installed this basement waterproofing solution in 2 homes. System speaks for itself. Nothing better on the market. Work was first rate. Expectations were presented prior to the project. Details on what would happen and how the project would go. Would not hesitate to use again ERV installed New basement egress. This project did not go as planned, but not at the fault of basement systems. Was originally supposed to get a BILCO door but due to unforseen issues, that was not able to happen. They ended up installing a new staircase from my basement to ground level. Work was first rate and ended up better than a bilco door. Company re landscaped and everything is as it was. All work performed was top notch and no issues on anything they have done"

"The job turned out great and we are very pleased. We have been using this contractor for many years and have always been completely satisfied with the work done. Before we moved to a condo, we had a three story house and he did many jobs for us from replacing the roof, to installing a sump pump in the basement."

"The crew at Tedesco Construction were amazing to work with. They did a great job with a high skill level and attention to detail. We are so happy with the outcome of our projects. Apart from the basement remodel we also gutted a bathroom which turned out beautiful. They were also quick to offer good ideas. Besides being great at their job, the crew is very personable and fun. It really helps when you have people in your house for a longer period of time. Overall we highly recommend PG Tedesco Construction!"

"Matt and his team with MNB Renovations did a 32 x 24 addition that was basically a home build from the ground up. I am still surprised for the size of this project how stress free the process was. Matt was very detailed and checked in on everything to make sure we were getting what we wanted. In the end he asked us to make a list of anything that needed to be addressed and there was absolutely nothing to mention. They did a perfect job, the quality of the work is amazing, and the entire team was very nice, professional, and trustworthy! I absolutely recommend this company to others and will definitely use them again in the future!"

"Bob and the crew really did a great job with painting our living room and updating our basement family room. The family room project included painting, new ceiling tiles and updated LED lighting. They paid attention to details and provided excellent suggestions that really made a difference. They are locally based in Aston . We will definitely hire again for future projects."

"Perry, was easy to work with, he stayed on top of everything. He went over and above what most contractors do. The trust and confidence his crew gave me was outstanding and very reassuring. I had to leave my property for the duration of the project but the crew kept me well informed of the progress. I would highly recommend D. Willis General Contractors, Inc. for any project."

"We used MDD for a complete kitchen remodel, down to the studs, and are so pleased with the results! Matt and his team are professional, hardworking, and efficient. We changed the project on Matt a few times throughout the process and he was always patient and willing to take the time to make the project exactly how we envisioned it. The other contractors/vendors Matt used to complete the project were all very knowledgeable and professional as well. Matt did a great job overseeing the entire project, while keeping us within budget and on time. We would recommend MDD Construction to anyone who is looking for a reliable contractor who does beautiful work!"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Garnet Valley, 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.
