"We had New Image Remodeling reshingle (with complete tear off) last summer. I wanted to wait until a snow melt had happened before I left a review because that would be the true test as to the success of their work. From the very first voicemail we received from Dennis all the way to the end of the project we were very pleased. There has been No leaks. The roof is beautiful. Any problems that we had were quickly resolved, and with our home being an older, the team had a few challenges. They were also very respectful about the landscaping, and I didn’t lose one perennial. And they cleaned up everything to complete satisfaction. The only regret I have is not doing more for the team (ex. cookies, cold drinks). It was a joy listening to their laughter and chatter as they went about their task diligently. A sincere thank you and blessings to you for a prosperous 2026! I highly recommend this company!"

"What made their service so good was their professionalism; they didn't stop working until the job was done. No matter what little problems came up, they kept going. They are excellent, professional, and very pleasant."

What should you look for in your search of a reputable remodeler? It is an extremely critical part of the process. We are talking about your home, the place you raise your family and create all those wonderful memories. You deserve a contractor who will listen and take the time to prepare a comprehensive, thought out proposal and not just hand you a piece of paper with just a dollar amount scribbled on it. We will provide you a detailed, clearly written proposal that spells out exactly what is and what is not included in your project. You want someone who you can easily communicate with and who makes you feel comfortable. Whoever you ultimately choose will be in your house with your family for days or even weeks depending on the size of the project. Remodeling projects can be disruptive to your daily life. However, regular communication helps ease the strain and keeps your project running smoothly and efficiently. You need someone who you can count on. We have been in business since 1992 and have a reference list of over two dozen recent clients willing to talk to you about their experience with Rockwood Construction. Need a little more convincing?

"We hired Alex to install our kitchen backsplash. It was a small job in terms of square footage, but by no means was it easy. The tile we chose was an arabesque shape and very fiddly to work with, as the tiles were not mounted on a mesh backing sheet and each tile had to be cut and set individually. This was no problem for Alex, and he even finished the job early. The man is professional, meticulous, and highly skilled. My backsplash is perfect and it is gorgeous. Every time I walk into my kitchen, I can't help but smile. We will soon be replacing the flooring in our entire house, and we won't consider hiring anyone but Alex for the job."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Kent City, MI

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.
