"My wife and I were looking for a contractor to remodel our master bathroom. We were looking for someone that was knowledgeable, honest, fair in pricing, and great with communication. Victor from VAP Contracting was exactly that. Victor told us exactly when he would start, what he would need, and always answered any questions that we had. His team arrived every morning on time and was very polite. They were very neat and cleaned up each day and truly did an amazing job! Our new bathroom looks great. Victor stands behind his work and we look forward to working with them again on other projects that we have."

"Great results from waterproofing. Turned my spring flooding anxiety to calm. As humidity rose in summer, I put in a small dehumidifier. Made basement noisy as it struggled to dry and produced a lot of heat. As temperatures rose to about 83 down there and the humidity rose to over 68%, I had same people put in a whole basement commercial-grade dehumidifier. The small unit dropped the humidity to around 50% in less than an hour. Incredible performance and have me peace of mind and peace and quiet downstairs. Temperature dropped gas as well. Weel worth the price to save my most expensive investment."

"I was in desperate need to replace my broilers because my heating system was not working as well as it should have been. Luckily American Home Remodeling are able to find me more efficient options at a reasonable price. They updated the entire heating system for all the floors of my house, updated all the electrical switches necessary and even included the clean up for the job. They handled all the permits necessary so my house was up to code as well. The entire job was done within a shorter period than I anticipated and they remained in contact with me throughout the entire process so I was aware of what was happening. I'm definitely going to use them in the near future when I finish my basement."

"We recently had a complete kitchen renovation and main floor remodel done at my parents' home, and I can’t express how pleased we are with the results. From the very start, William and Miguel made the entire process a dream. William was simply exceptional to work with. He went above and beyond to make sure we were happy every step of the way. Not only was he incredibly helpful, professional, and available at all times, but he also took the time to accompany us to the store to help select the best products, tiling, and appliances—all while keeping us within budget. His advice was spot-on, and his eye for detail was invaluable. Throughout the project, he provided regular updates and checked in frequently to ensure we were comfortable with the progress. One of the biggest challenges was navigating the different perspectives of not only my parents but also myself and my three sisters, all of whom were involved in the decision-making. William handled it all with patience, diplomacy, and a calming presence, making sure everyone was heard and at ease. His guidance was steady and reassuring as he led us through the process with a professionalism that truly impressed us. William has clearly put in the effort to build a top-notch team. He surrounds himself with respectful, hardworking individuals who value trust, honesty, and family as much as he does. It's clear that he genuinely cares about creating bonds with his clients and helping them transform their homes—and their lives. Miguel, the man behind the magic, went above and beyond at every turn. His craftsmanship is excellent—truly top-notch. He was kind, dedicated, and worked tirelessly to get things just right. He arrived early, stayed late, and even came on Saturdays. Despite the language barrier, he used Google Translate skillfully to ensure we were always on the same page. Throughout the project, he kept us informed and even handled extra fixes at no additional cost. It was clear he took great pride in his work, and his attention to detail showed in every aspect of the renovation. By the end, we genuinely felt like we had made new friends in William and Miguel. They did a fantastic job bringing our 1930s house—never before renovated—into a modern and beautiful state. They tackled everything from a complete kitchen demo down to the framing: new insulation, ceilings, floors, walls, appliances, cabinets, a partial wall removal to make room for a gorgeous kitchen island with pendant lighting, and the meticulous restoration of the original hardwood floors. They even went above and beyond after the project was finished, coming back to help us set up exterior security cameras. Their recommendations were spot-on, and they always had an eye for aesthetics while staying within our budget. We couldn't be happier with the transformation they've achieved, and I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone considering a home renovation. Thank you, William and Miguel, for your hard work, kindness, and professionalism. You made what could have been a stressful project a truly enjoyable experience."
This was a larger bathroom with two accent walls, a tub and sauna shower with jetted shower heads, a custom-cut ceiling, heated pebble flooring, and a mini wooden walkway.
The client wanted a tub sitting on pebble stones with an accent wall, wooden look custom shelving, and a smart floating toilet.
The image showcases a contemporary stand-up shower featuring frameless glass doors that provide a seamless, open look. The interior is adorned with large marble tiles in a soft, neutral tone, giving the shower a luxurious feel.

Built-in niches provide stylish and practical storage for toiletries, while subtle LED lighting enhances the overall ambiance.

Customers say: True professional

"We live in a prewar coop building in Manhattan and were in need of a kitchen, living and dining room/den renovation. Because of the limitations in our building, we were not optimistic that many changes could be made that would dramatically alter the feel/function of the space. Inson Wood proved us completely wrong. With his architectural eye and his impeccable design aesthetic we (and everyone who has been here before and after) experiences our apartment as an entirely different living space. Even family members are shocked at the transformation. I think that what Inson accomplished was the product of a few significant factors. First, Inson asks you what you want and seriously considers how you live. If Inson thinks that different approaches should be considered for what you want, he provides renderings of each option so that you can easily visualize and imagine them. Ultimately, Inson respects your preferences and works with them, elevating them to a level far above what you had imagined. Inson uses the highest quality vendors (whom we NEVER would have found) and expertly guides you through choices (note: follow his recommendations!!!)- our walls would never have had dimension and our kitchen backsplash never have been so unique (two examples) if not for the artisans that Inson uses. Inson is also willing to have you be as much or as little involved in the process as you want to be. I did go with Inson to choose many pieces of furniture but realized after a certain point that his taste point made me confident in him choosing much finishing work (ex: window treatments, decorative cushions, which I love) without me. As with all design work, there are always glitches and Inson was extremely responsive and responsible for taking care of those as they came up. We are nothing less than thrilled to come home each evening and enjoy our space, which feels like a luxurious retreat perfectly tailored to us."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Mount Vernon, NY

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.
