"Ariel from Lifetime Construction inspected the damage to my wall and intelligently discussed what needed to be done to repair it. He was knowledgeable and gave me what I thought was a fair quote of $1,800. The two other quotes I got for the same job were for $2,950. and $4,800. I am very familiar with home construction work as I have lived in my home since 1961 and have had 2 major add-ons and several inside remodels done during the past 59 years. Lifetime Construction showed up precisely on time for appointments ( a rarity among contractors) and performed the work as contracted. I would definitely use them again. Sincerely, Dr. Jerry Karasick"

"I am very pleased with results of my kitchen remodel project and would gladly hire Craftsman Renovations again anytime. All of the work was first rate and Dex and Mike were both professional and competent. They are very good communicators and I always knew what was to be done next and what I needed to do as well. All of the subcontractors were excellent and treated my property respectfully. Frankly, kitchen remodels can be difficult, but Dex and Mike made the experience as painless as possible. I would recommend them to anyone (and already have done so)."

"I am more than thrilled with the kitchen update which Roxy designed for me. I was hesitant to invest the money in my home since we've been here for 38 years and wondered if it made sense to update it. Needless to say, I only wish we would have done it years ago. It's beautiful and much more efficient. The installation crew was professional, knowledgeable and great to work with. I highly recommend Roxy and her team. You won't be sorry."

"Steve at SBCI was great to work with on our basement remodel! He was very responsive to questions, the project was completed on time and he worked with quality subcontractors. He partners with companies that allowed us to stay within the budget allowance for tile/carpet and bathroom fixtures. The basement was cleaned up every night after work finished for the day. Steve also started and finished the project before other contractors were able to begin. We are so thrilled with the basement and quality of his work. I would absolutely use him again!"

"Kluy Custom Kitchen Remodel
Problem: Kitchen was small outdated and poorly lit.  It also did not have 200 amp service.
The house is @ 40 years old in a neighbourhood we enjoy and on a lot we really liked. We wanted to open up the kitchen to get more space/storage and upgrade the appliances including bringing in 200 amp service.  We entertain frequently and wanted a guest friendly kitchen. We wanted others to be able to join in the dinner prep fun or
just share a glass of wine and conversation.  
Special considerations: 
We?ve known Dennis, Linda and their son Craig Kluy for years and watched
them go through remodels of their own home and other people?s homes.  It was a concern because we didn?t want the
friendship adversely impacted by this project. 
We?ve seen enough of their work to know they did great things but we?ve
never been a client.  The friendship was
more important than the job and we didn?t want to risk harming it.  However we trusted their honesty, experience
creativity and judgement.  We discussed
our concerns up front with them and decided to do this project with them and we
are so thankful we did! What a fabulous outcome!
Linda first made me measure the existing storage space I had,
including spices so I would know how much I space I had and make sure I
expanded what was really important.  This
was a really good idea.  We discussed my
ideas and they looked at the area and drawings I had done and Dennis provided
the scale floor plan options.   I have
trouble visualizing things so I measured things and taped the measurements on
the floor so I could get a better idea. 
That really helped get a better idea of spaces and work patterns before design
was completed.  
Craig is the creative force that pulled it together and made it sparkle.  His creativity provided many
very classy finishing touches that solved problems. We removed two walls and
opened the area up.  The natural light from existing windows flooded the area and made a wonderfully open space to
work in.  We had tile on the floor originally and replaced it with heated tiles that went beautifully with the
rest of the kitchen.  We loved the heated floor this last winter!  We had enough space to put in a 12 foot island with an induction cook top and a glass island vent.  We also used granite on the counter tops and island.  It?s quite striking!   I have a wonderful pantry area and plenty of storage.  As I said I have trouble visualizing and they helped me preview ideas so
I had a comfort level with the design. Thanks to them I have many many nice features that I would not have
thought of that are practical for the way I cook.  It?s a great working kitchen space!  No space was wasted! One thing I love is the
wonderful work light I now have.  The kitchen is fabulous!  Works great and did I mention that Craig has an excellent eye for color?  He can see a color and visualize the other colors that it works well with it.  It?s a pretty amazing talent!  The wall paint,
granite, and the color of the wood cabinets all go together in a craftsman style and the colors are beautiful!
The actual construction started on Memorial Day weekend 2012 and was finished so we could move in in late September2012.  October saw finishing touches and some adjustments.
I can?t say enough about how well we all worked together and the idea exchange.  Linda has a flair for design and practical application which I was able to appreciate as a Kluy Custom client.  (She is a really fine cook in
her home and we?ve enjoyed invitations to her table with pleasure.   Not only do I have a beautiful kitchen but 2
years later I love it even more!   It?s a great Holiday family gathering place and everyone has a good time.  It works
great every day and for large groups and holidays!  And we didn?t have to build/buy a new house to get it!

"We needed a door installed between our kitchen and basement. Finest (styled fiNest) Home Services came out and gave a professional and reasonable bid. Their staff was professional and friendly, and this held true on the day of installation. The door is great and my cat is safe. We will be using fiNest again."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Newport, MN

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.
