"Outstanding experience with Home One, covering our master bathroom/master bedroom renovation and complete basement refinishing including a spa installation. The entire team was professional, responsive and easy to work with from beginning to end. Communication was excellent throughout the project as they kept us informed every step of the way about material delivery dates, planned daily work schedules, and subcontractor coordination. They used top-quality subcontractors for plumbing, flooring, fixtures and electrical. The team made great suggestions for materials and style choices as well, which made a use difference in the end product. The price was fair and the final cost stayed very close to the original estimate despite the large time and material scope of the project. The workmanship exceeded our expectations. We plan to use them again for an upcoming project, and highly recommend them."

"We consulted with Robert Horne Contracting to remodel a very dated bathroom for us. From the start, they were very communicative from when he'd have the estimate (we ended up getting that earlier than anticipated) to picking out fixtures to start date. As with any old house, there were some challenges with hidden things which added to the tasks needing to be performed. He told us about those as they came up and gave us the very reasonable estimates, if the issue required extra work. He was able to remove the build-out above the sink and rework the plumbing to vastly open up that space giving the appearance of a bigger, roomier room. We did a walk-through and got written confirmation of our punch list items. He gave us a date of when he'd be out to complete the odds and ends and was there promptly on the given day. We are very satisfied with the work he performed and especially with the communication. We never once wondered when he'd be there or what was going on with products being delivered, etc. We are very happy customers!"

"I am a Commercial GC Superintendent and I've worked with quite a few glazing companies across the country over the years. Garrety Glass has been a recent standout mostly due to the rigorous efforts of their commercial Field Superintendent, Brian Collins, who has been nothing short of exceptional. He went above and beyond to ensure this 20M project got delivered on-time and with the highest quality within his specific scope. Much respect for how Brian runs his crew and takes pride in his work. I look forward to working with him once again on another project in the near future. He truly deserves this acknowledgement."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Hanover, 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.
