"We engaged Tom based on his very professional presentation in which he said that we would see a detailed spreadsheet of project costs and a computerized timeline of project activities. Tom indicated that he was very concerned about sticking to our budget and completing the project on time. Although we did see a timeline and the project was completed on time (very
important to us) we never saw a detailed spreadsheet of costs. What we got was a word document consisting of a group of aggregated expenses. This budget turned out to be 5% over our target and it proved impossible from it to determine any effective way to reduce the final cost. However despite this initial disappointment we turned out to be very satisfied with our remodeling project. Tom has assembled an extraordinary group of people. His designer Beth created an outstanding set of plans and the crew led by Earle executed them in excellent fashion. They are all experts in their craft and there is nothing they can't do. Several problems arose during the construction phase and they were solved with skill and no appreciable delay. In all this Tom managed the project, did the ordering, made sure that materials arrived on time, saw to it that everyone was on the same page, handled all arrangements with the building management, and did numerous other things that I am probably not aware of. The company is called Total Home Solution and it is just that. Our project involved a complete renovation of a large Condo in a high rise building and Tom provided all the needed trades from wallpaper removal at the outset to flooring at the finish. We were only needed to make material and design choices. When we came to the job site everyone there treated us with great respect and told us that it was important for them to make us happy. We would certainly use Tom again for a future project and recommend him most highly."

"Frank and his team were great! I appreciated how responsive and flexible they were when renovating our basement. They paid attention to details and were willing to do some small handyman tasks that needed to be completed but that I didn't feel comfortable doing on my own. We have a dog so their team being pet friendly was a nice plus. Would recommend"

"It went great. It's beautiful, gorgeous. The bathroom now looks like a spa. It went really well, it took him about a week to remodel my whole bathroom and he did an excellent job. Very competitive pricing. He was very responsive, he showed up on time, work throughout the day. We are calling him back for house remodel and we'll definitely use them again."

"My wife found Dan through a Home Advisor search. We did a complete full bathroom remodel/reconfiguration. Dan left an immediate overwhelming positive impression the first time he came out. He provided design and reconfigure consultation that we were expecting to use a separate designer and/or architect for. His past work speaks for itself and he has a tremendous amount of experience and examples to pull from to offer suggestions that aligned with our tastes just from speaking through the project with him. Dan is extremely professional and courteous and maintained impeccable cleanliness and constant communication throughout the job. In addition to his promoted services, Dan is skilled in all areas of home improvement and completed some other handyman services throughout the project. I highly recommend him for any project. I plan on contacting him for any future work I need done."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Glenside, 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.
