"My project was "my one car garage concrete was stabilized". Alpha Foundations is a super excellent company that take every detail of your project into account. Not only the quality of the work that they do, it is the human resource that they have and allows to Alpha Foundations be so excellent. Starting from the Project Manager Zachary Haring a Certified Field Inspector. In the first appointment, he explained everything in detail. So good, that I could understand all the explanation and I'm not a technical guide. He responded all my questions that I had immediately. After the meeting, I contacted him multiple times and he responded properly and professionally all the time. Then, the date when the job will be done there was a situation with the scheduled time, but Zachary continued and resolved it! The day of the work was how it had to be, excellent as well. Tory and Blake called me to let me know they were on the way. They arrived with the truck and all the equipment very nice, and explained very good the job they were going to do. Started with the project, cleaning the garage and continuing with every step needed. I asked multiple questions, and they explained every detail that I needed. When the job was completed, they let me know the final instructions that I had to follow. Definitely I want to thank Alpha Foundations especially to Zachary, Tory and Blake for their great job! If I need to contact the company for another job, absolutely I will do my new project with them."

"We had a great experience with Cer Custom Renovations. The work was completed about four months ago, but I waited to share a review until after we had lived in the space for a little while. Our remodeling project involved finishing half our basement to put in place a bedroom, full bathroom, and a rec room–and we are very pleased with the results. The folks at Cer Custom Renovations did a great job (no issues at all!), and they were very easy to work with. The scheduling was clear, and they were communicative throughout. Our main objective in moving forward with this project was to create a space that would allow us to better host guests, and we feel that we now have it. I would definitely recommend Cer Custom Renovations to others."

"This is a great company to have work in your home. We had water damage and mold from a roof leak and our public adjuster recommended 1-800-DryMeOut. I am so glad that we took his advice and hired them. Their work is meticulous and all the employees that came to our home were very professional and courteous. They were careful with my property and belongings. They installed dust protection throughout my home. They showed up on time, cleaned up after themselves daily, and offered helpful advice on how to proceed with the insurance claim and the remodel work. Their work was top notch! I would definitely recommend 1-800-DryMeOut! Joe and Steve were especially great to work with!"

"A P Construction and Development completed a beach condominium remodel for me. Their communication, punctuality, quality, and professionalism were extraordinary. I couldn't be more pleased with their work which included new trim, flooring, painting, removal of a very large wall mirror, minor drywall repair, door replacements, and more. After discussing the scope of work, Chris provided a very timely and fair bid. Originally, completion was projected to take 4 weeks from start to finish. Chris started the demolition on a Saturday, which was the first day that the condo was available. The team worked steadily and on the weekends and had everything completed in just 3 weeks which was one week early. A P Construction and Development kept me continually in the loop regarding how the project was progressing. Chris would call and update me every few days. Also, he always responded quickly to my text messages if i had a question. He was very punctual with phone calls, text messages, and appointments. The quality of their work was exceptional. Chris and Anton are both experienced craftsmen. Everything was expertly completed. On the last day, Chris was waiting on a final trim piece to finish the project. While he was waiting, he helped me remove old furniture and even hang mirrors and pictures. In summary, A and P went above and beyond to make sure our renovation went smoothly and that we were happy with the results. They are not only great contractors but good people to work with. I plan to use them in the future and have referred them to friends on multiple occasions."

"I don't have time to go into everything.  We discussed what we wanted, removing a 1970's kitchen, knocked down walls and make it absolutely beautiful.  Brent also helped us select cabinets and finishes.  We did some remodel work in the bathroom area as well and our guest house.  They did what they said they were going to do.  Honorable, hard working people. <br /> I understand they have moved their operation to Texas now. <br />"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Lakeshore, FL

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.
