Customers say: Quick response

"Jose Aritas and his crew are top-notch: professional, pleasant, and efficient. Jose responded quickly to our inquiry on Angi, and came the next day to estimate our job (painting the interior front half of the house, including the ceiling, and also minor master bathroom remodeling). They were ready to go as soon as the new countertop and plumbing fixtures arrived. He kept us informed, arrived on time with his amazing crew of 6 pros, and had the work done within two days. Jose is calm, knowledgeable, and goes the extra mile. His crew did a careful, beautiful job, including leaving the house totally cleaned up. We highly recommend Aritas Remodeling & Painting -- this is a pro you can count on to do the job, and do it right. "

"Day's Home Improvement performed a wide variety of home improvements for our home in Fairhope, AL. The entire house was painted, walls, ceiling, trim and kitchen cabinets. Day's provided High quality workmanship at a fair price. The work was completed on time. Days removed and replaced several interior doors. The front door and windows were completely re-finished/ stained and looked beautiful. Our house showed like a newly constructed home allowing our property to be marketed and under contract in less than a week. The workers were polite, skilled and respectful. All around good people. I would highly recommend Day's Home Improvement for any remodeling and painting jobs in Baldwin County / Mobile."

"Clay was such a pleasure to work with. He listened to our ideas and brought several ideas and options to us. His workers were very professional and courteous. He was on time for our update meetings and finished each project within the allotted time. What we liked most was he did what he said he would do on time. We had planned a Christmas vacation with the whole family and had to have the project done by Dec. 24th. He was completed by Dec. 20th taking the stress off the travel plans.We have employed him on several follow up jobs that we planned and they have been completed with the same diligence as the first. He is working on adding crown molding to several rooms for us now. <br />"

"Bob Caron is the estimator for Lipford construction. He returned my call within minutes of my initial call. We set up an appointment the following day.  He walked through the house with me as I described exactly what I needed done. He was extremely helpful and was able to give me suggestions on the most efficient and cost effective solutions to each problem we had.  The estimate was very reasonable - actually about $8,000 less than 2 other quotes I received.  The work commenced exactly on the date we agreed.  <br /> Wiley was the project manager.  He was completely professional, extremely polite and very experienced.  <br /> They matched the brick perfectly - a concern I had because an entire wall was being replaced. The carpentry, sheetrock finishers, painters, and stucco contractors were all very polite and professional.  The job was completed ahead of time and on budget. <br /> These guys are the best!    <br /> <br />"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Foley, AL

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.
