"We love our basement remodel. Peter, Alex and his team were here when they said theyâ d be here, completed the job as described, and kept us updated along the way. The basement now looks and feels clean and bright. The additional space doesnâ t feel like a basement at all and is enjoyed by the whole family. We highly recommend Lux Renovations."

"During the initial quote process Tom was very knowledgeable and put together a great plan for basement remodeling. My basement was transformed from the style of 50's to a modern basement that I can enjoy with my family. The staff was friendly and worked diligently 6 days a week without interrupting to my day. I received updates through the project from Tom on the progress. The company provided completive rates and this was the best money spent. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for quality work, your will not be disappointed."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with The Finish Guys for a basement remodeling project, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional, and I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone in need of a remodel. The team's punctuality and responsibility were outstanding. They consistently arrived on time, and their professionalism was evident throughout the project. I must also commend Matt, who was our main point of contact. His level of communication was top-notch. He kept us informed every step of the way and was quick to address any concerns or questions we had. Matt's dedication to ensuring our satisfaction was truly impressive. The quality of their work speaks for itself. The Finish Guys transformed our basement into a space that exceeded our expectations. Their attention to detail and craftsmanship are evident in every corner of the remodel."

"We had Tom and his crew remodel our small master bathroom a couple of years ago and invited him back to do our kitchen remodel. Tom and his crew are incredible. They are very professional, considerate, and clean. They do the job right and don't cut corners. His pricing is fair and I would be happy to use them again on my next project."

"The crew did a wonderful job, turning a bare cement basement into a cozy getaway. They framed up and insulated the walls and painting the ceiling black to make it seem larger. They also fixed some rotted railings and installed two new basement windows. Very professional, and were careful to keep things clean."

"We had been burned by fly by night contractors before. Rob assured us that he would restore our faith. He was right!!! He was dedicated, reliable, creative and a pleasure to work with every step of the way on an extensive master bathroom remodel. Along with Ken and Eric, he took the bathroom down to the studs and rebuilt us a 'getaway'. I feel like I'm stepping into a 5 star hotel suite shower everyday when I climb onto our new enormous mosaic floor. In addition to the bathroom, they painted 4 rooms and meticulously prepped every nail hole pop and cracked seam in our aging vaulted ceilings. The house looks BRAND NEW! I highly recommend and can't wait until we can have them back to remodel our kitchen."

"I typically don't write reviews on products or services that I receive. You would be lucky to find one or two reviews from my hundred of Amazon orders or Uber rides. However, I recently had my basement finished and I cannot calculate the number of hours I put in trying to find the perfect contractor to finish my basement. Every person and project are different, so the least I can do is share my experience and hopefully save the next home owner 40+ hours of their lives in research. During my initial search I went through Home Advisor, Google, AngelList, Craigslist, the local township website, and every possible resource I could find on the internet looking for "The One". The core items I was looking for were licensed, specialization, flexible payments, honest, and someone who could complete the work in an allocated amount of time. For each of the potential contractors that fix the bill, I would invite them to the house, show them the basement and attempt to determine if they were honest and personable. To me, if someone is going to be in your house for weeks on in, I want to be able to hold a conversation with them and trust that they wouldn't venture throughout my house while I was away. Each of the contractors I brought over was missing at least one of my desired factors till I met John for JK General Contracting. John was very open on schedules, pricing and also on the same page that he wanted me to be comfortable with his guys since they were going to be sending quite a bit of time in the house. In addition to this, John also stated that he has a specialist for each of the items that were to be performed in the basement (e.g., drywall, painters, plumbers, electricians, etc.). it did seem a bit too good to be true and decided to a do a bit more research which led me to his website. The pictures of his work seemed promising; however, I always question if the pictures on these sites are actual legitimate pictures. Needless to say, I went out on a whim and hired JK General Contracting. My project has officially completed today (as I write this well-deserved review) and I honestly could not be more pleased. Not only did John, Brandon and team live up to expectations, they far exceeded my expectations with communication, design, and just overall simplicity. I took pictures throughout the project to show family and friends and I will be sharing them with John (hopefully he will upload them to his site to really showcase his work). John would call me every week providing updates on what is to expect the following week. He also worked seamlessly with me when I wanted to make last minute changes to the project. I have honestly had a pain free experience with JK General Contracting and would hire them several times over for any project I may have. I do know that this was a VERY long-winded review; however, as I mentioned earlier, if this review can save others hours of time trying to find a contractor with similar needs to mine, then it was worth it. I am a real person, with now a "real nice basement" and willing to vouch that company is top tier. I plan to post this review in the key places that I went to search for a contractor as I hope to help someone out and hopefully, they can have a finished product similar to mine. -Jose"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Lawrence Township, NJ

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.
