"I cannot say enough good things about MBC Contracting. Daniel and his team are superb! They are very meticulous in their work, have great customer service, and do not push things on you that is not required. I have used them for many years from small jobs, including painting/drywall, door & lock replacements; to big jobs like a sewer line replacement, which required coordination not only with us but with our tenants. If my experience is any guide, you will not go wrong with MBC Contracting, in fact you may thank yourself. Thank you MBC Contracting!"

"When I started down the path of remodeling my 2 outdated bathrooms, I had no idea what to expect. My two main criteria were fair price and good workmanship. Abode Construction delivered this and more! Scott provides top notch work, respectful and capable crew, quality customer care, and advice, all for a competitive price. His team, from the estimate to changes for the project through completion of the bathrooms, make the client feel valued. Did everything go as planned? Absolutely not. Some events were unavoidable (e.g. supply delays) but some could have been avoided. However, Scott made sure that we were whole at the end of the day and made good on his 100% guaranteed satisfaction. I now have two updated, modern bathrooms that we all LOVE! I will be using Abode Construction for future projects and highly recommend them to others."

"I selected Armour over other contractors bids for my basement remodel and I am very happy that chose them. During the bidding process they answered all of my questions quickly and thoroughly, their proposal was thorough and clear, and they were happy to discuss my ideas, thoughts and concerns. The crew that did the work was fantastic. Those guys are pros. The scope of work included all new framing and drywall (up to code, unlike before they came in), replacing that damn stucco ceiling with new drywall, upgrading the bathroom and kitchenette, new flooring, new basement door and replacing the ancient basement window, plus upgrades to the interior basement stairs and bathroom exhaust fans.

"Finding a capable and reliable contractor is not easy. When we decided to remodel two bathrooms, no one we asked could give a strong recommendation for any previous contractor. We had postponed these projects for years, simply because we dreaded another â bad contractorâ experience. Thatâ s why itâ s so rewarding for us for us to report that Pegasus is the contractor weâ ve been looking for. Kudos to Walter for building and leading an up and coming young company that compares favorably against more established firms. They were responsive to our requests, provided timely communication and were actually fun to work with. They were extremely respectful of our home and performed a thorough clean up at the end of every work day. Every project inevitably encounters challenges along the way and ours was no different. But we donâ t judge others by mistakes made, we judge them by how they solve problems. In every instance, Pegasus resolved stumbling blocks quickly, graciously and with professionalism. As a result, our experience was painless and the finished bathrooms are a showcase of quality work we are proud to share with others. We now have a company we can confidently recommend to others."

Pre-made bars cost $1,200 to $6,500, while custom bars range from $2,000 to $22,500, depending on features. For basic needs, pre-fabricated options are more economical and offer quicker installation. Custom bars cost more but provide exact specifications and potentially higher quality. The simplest and most affordable options are freestanding bar cabinets and bar carts.
A good basement bar size depends on your available space and entertaining needs. Most residential bars range from six to 12 feet in length. Standard bar height is 42 inches, while counter-height bars (36 inches) are more family-friendly. Allow 24 to 30 inches of width per person for comfortable seating and at least 36 to 42 inches of clearance behind the bar for movement. For entertaining, an eight to 10-foot bar comfortably seats three to four people.
Permit requirements vary by location, but generally include building permits for structural changes, plumbing permits for wet bars, and electrical permits for new circuits or significant wiring work. Some municipalities also require inspections during and after construction. Check with your local building department before starting your project, as skipping required permits can lead to complications when selling your home and may void insurance coverage if issues arise later.
