"Freddy was very professional and knowledgeable and explained that the water issues were not the result of foundation issues and explained what he could do if i wanted a dry basement. He did not try to sell me something that i did not need."

"This company is GREAT!!!!   We needed our decking replaced on the back of our home.  We had pressure treated lumber and wanted to have Trexx installed. <br /> Jason Evans came out to our home and measured and gave us an estimate.  We scheduled the work to be done, and when the work crew arrived I cannot say enough about how professional and meticulous they were.  It took them about 2 days to finish the job, and from start to finish they were amazing.  They kept the area clean and neat, worked hard, and did an EXCELLENT job.  Our new deck looks beautiful.  The workers even went an extra step and removed junk (that we did not know was there because our deck is enclosed with brick)  our original builder left under the deck.   <br /> My husband and I would recommend this company without reservation! <br /> <br /> <br />"

"We provided all faucets except the basement one, So the installer only had to remove the old faucets and install the new ones. In the basement the installer inserted two valves in the water lines to allow for change in water flow as directed by the owner. Installer provided all materials for the basement. Installer also checked out toilet in one bathroom to stop toilet from continuously running. <br /> Installer cleaned up well and kept the owner informed of his progress. <br /> While the installer was very professional, personable and communicated well with us. We felt the cost was too much. We agreed to the rate but afterwards felt that $100 per hour was a bit steep for that type of work. We did enjoy a senior discount that brought the amount down to $400 by subtracting approx. $30. Upon discussion with the owner of the company the bill was reduced. We appreciated his quick decision and frank discussion. <br /> <br />"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Gladys, VA

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.
