"The project went very smoothly and came in on budget. All aspects of the job—the cleaning and spray washing, the staining and resealing, the caulking, and the cleanup were all done with incredible attention to detail and with obvious knowledge and skill. The team was on-sight for several days. They went to obvious efforts to make their presence as non-intrusive and pleasant as possible, considering the scope and size of the work. And, when the work was completed, the cleanup was very professionally done, leaving the house as neat as they found it. Highly Recommended!"

"Gary and his crew were very polite. Their work was top notch and all of our suggestions were well received and acted apon promptly. They showed up when they were scheduled except when weather prevented. Then they called and let us know when they would be back. Later this year we will contract with them again to do some inside work. They are well able to do any type of work from home repair, remodeling or even building a new home. We felt that their price was very reasonable."

"I found them on Angie’s List. He showed me pictures of everything and what he took out. He showed me the work and it wasn’t like made up or anything. He took pictures before and after on the roof of the part that was rotten and after he redid it. I was happy with him. I looked afterwards and there was no complaint. They did it in a timely manner, like they said they would. There were rain delays and it wasn’t their problem. They never tried to change the price on me. They cleaned up like nails and stuff in the driveway. I checked the driveway and there weren’t any nails or anything. They did a pretty good job. They did fine and it was a good job. I did have other estimates and they were okay. They called and asked if anything was wrong, and it has been a year. They got delayed and the work got a little hurried but it was damp and they couldn’t get to it. They did everything they were going to do. They didn’t try to cover and not replace certain things to make more profit, and I see all new gutters and everything."

"Tim and his crew did an excellent job on my roof.   He was there to give an estimate at the time he was expected.   Two days later, he started the job, again on time.  The job was completed exactly in the time frame he said it would be with no extra charges, and they did an excellent job cleaning up.   I would recommend Bazell Construction highly."

"I contacted Homemade Designs to get some guidance in decorating the family room in my new home. The plans took longer than expected which created stress for me as I was on hold with very little furniture in my family room as I waited to get suggestions. The furniture which can be purchased through the company is worth the wait if you want something different than what you see at all of the typical furniture stores.
I would recommend Homemade designs.

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Martins Ferry, OH

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.
