"After we agreed on price I took two days off of work. I noticed a 40 X 40 pan way smaller than agreed on. He found another but still not the same size as agreed. I asked for a reduction in price. Never heard from him. They were to come for final walk through but never came. Called and rescheduled but never heard from them. I think they took advantage of senior citizens. I now see commercials for 1/2 off of price. I wish I new that but what I know now is they can't be trusted. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone."

"The installers (Thomas and Noah) were on time, conscious of everything they were doing, and our dog loved them. Outside of that, their trade skills were outstanding (I'm a regional maintenance advisor for a Fortune 100 company, so I know) and they were even careful about noise because I was in a lot of meetings that day. Just outstanding from start to finish. Ira, the job lead made intros and followed up. Mark feels like a family friend. Wouldn't use ANYONE else."

""Basement - Remodel" doesn't really cover it for our project. We added a great room, a bedroom, and a bathroom. In other words, about half a house. I can describe the Tarantola crew's knowledge and execution, both collectively and individually, in three words: "Attention to detail". I grew up in and around commercial and residential construction and I've done some of every one of the jobs required of Tarantola for our project. I was trained to be 'picky', so I am 'picky'. And, I can honestly say that I am not only happy with what they have done, but also proud of what they did and how they did it. Since the late 80's I've built and/or remodeled homes across several states around the country. And, over time, as those projects unwound, I became increasingly convinced that the work ethic that I grew up around was dying, if not dead. Well, I'm happy to report that we here in the KC area have at least one example to prove that there are still people in the business who care."

"We've used B&R for a number of projects. He's highly skilled, creative, honest, and dependable. A bathroom remodel was the most extensive project. I'm listing it's details below to show the extent of Brandon's work and capabilities. It involved taking out a tub and constructing a walk-in shower with a seat, along with removing a vanity and replacing it with two smaller ones, medicine cabinets for each, lighting, a new toilet, and a fan/heater combo in the ceiling. It also involved removing existing tile, and extensive tile installation in the shower, on bathroom walls, and the bathroom floor. Brandon is especially gifted in his tile working ability. He also remodeled a bedroom for us into an art studio, and several smaller projects."

A half bathroom requires a minimum of 15 square feet to accommodate a toilet and sink while meeting building codes. Most building codes require at least 21 inches of clearance in front of the toilet and 15 inches from the center of the toilet to any side wall or fixture.
Smaller spaces may work with compact fixtures like corner sinks and round toilets rather than elongated models, but always check local building codes before planning.
Adding a half bathroom takes several weeks from start to finish, depending on the complexity of the project. Simple installations near existing plumbing might be completed relatively quickly, while projects requiring extensive plumbing work or custom features naturally take longer.
The process involves multiple phases, including planning, demolition, rough-in work, inspections, finishing, and fixture installation. Your contractor can provide a more specific timeline based on your particular circumstances.
Yes, you can add a half bathroom to a basement, but this location often involves additional challenges compared to ground-floor installations. Basements frequently require special plumbing solutions if they're below the main sewer line. You'll also need to consider moisture management, proper ventilation, and potential concrete work for plumbing access.
Always check local building codes, as some jurisdictions have specific requirements for basement bathrooms. Despite these challenges, a basement half bath can add significant convenience and value to your home.
