"Service was great from sales, to installation, to post installation support. Very responsive, very professional. It's hard to find in this 'space'--there are a lot of shady people in basement water damage/repair, and this place exceeded expectations. We've had our repair in place for 4+ years, with only 1 small issue on a wall seam crack, and that was fixed within 24 hours of reporting the issue. Stand up place! Thank you for such great service and support."

"I recently hired Diamond Interiors to remodel my home, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, their team was professional, detail-oriented, and truly committed to delivering top-quality work. Every step of the project was handled with care, clear communication, and craftsmanship that exceeded my expectations. The transformation of my home is incredible—beautiful finishes, clean lines, and thoughtful touches throughout. They stayed on schedule, kept the workspace tidy, and made the entire process stress-free. It’s rare to find a contractor who combines skill, reliability, and pride in their work the way Diamond Interiors does. I highly recommend them to anyone considering a remodel. Outstanding job—thank you, Diamond Interiors! From Dan W."

"DO NOT HIRE THESE GUYS, whatever you do! you will regret it as we have $3,000 later and the leak is still there after his professional opinion to change our underground line. in addition his finish on concrete is horrible. upon his advice, paying him 125 bucks, to replace the line we felt why not replace both lines. well after the work was done, come to find out we still have the same leak. will he come and resolve this issue. No. why? because he insists on being paid in advance! what gets us is he never ruled out the skimmer potentially being where in fact the leak is coming from. we feel duked and ripped off since the lines we replaced likely were never the issue at all but instead it was the skimmer all along! how can he have missed assessing this important issue? how do we know this? the pool isn't leaking as we've 100% ruled that out by turning off the pump and there isn't water loss. open the lines and loss of water happens. so, why would he tell us the leak was in the line instead of assessing the skimmer as a possible issue which often is the case. does he lack judgment in properly assessing our issue? we have an in ground pool and the patio is gorgeous, with curves all around the pool in an S swirl shape. his repair after cutting out the concrete pad was very sloppy to say the least and looked like someone who has no clue about expense concrete repair. he didn't use a proper form when pouring the concrete resulting in a bellied outward shape when in fact it should be curved inward. he didn't use iron pins, additionally Jimmy didn't use a trawel to shape it, he also brushed it when it was still wet resulting in material being removed so it has a dip and it having a very jagged rough area and not safe for walking on, he didn't use a wire brush to remove the excess concrete over spilling on the patio. w**. again his catch phrase is "don't expect it to be perfect, you expect it to be perfect". this how he has the nerve to continually talk to my wife using abstract words to justify his sub par work. as if we don't know anything about quality work when all my life ive done construction. but telling him where he went obviously wrong, is not at all welcomed. I could go on how he left mounds of dirt instead of properly tamping down the soil so to leave it leveled, like how it was at the very least. these are things when spending 3 grand you do. he'll do just the minimal and he's very cheap when it comes time to using and going out to get the proper tools and materials needed for each unique job. this is how he saves money, and this is how you get crappy work done. they rush their job in order to make their next 3-4 grand on someone else and without any site of coming back to actually fix it the right way. oh, he'll fix it HIS way, but never the correct way. he doesn't inform you how he'll do the work and when you ask its always vague and not welcomed. he isn't one who pays attention to detail. yes this is jimmy were talking about. so he'll tell you, you don't know anything about the things you do know. we still have the same leak and the patio where he did the fixing looks out of place and like crap. you want your pool to still have a leak hire these guys. they'll replace things you don't need. you want him to take your money upfront before the work is done, hire these guys. you want your concrete patio repair to look like crap and be insulted continually with his catch phrase, hire these guys. it doesn't feel good at all being ripped off 3 grand for horrible advice, work that didn't fix anything and very unprofessional sloppy work."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Mount Laurel, 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.
