"We hired this company because Arne seemed trustworthy after meeting him in person, and because their rates were reasonable.

"The company (Black Dog) was hired to expand the bathroom and part of the basement renovation. The project started in October 2020 and it is still going through May 2021 with an unclear restart date after 2 no shows. It was promised to finish by Christmas. The company used 2 different colors of grout in the same room. They are planning to come back and redo it, waiting for 2 months now. They do not want to spend time on fixes. Leakage around the shower was noted, they promised to contact the subcontractor, but I have not heard from them yet. There are minor things missing, would pay attention to their contract as they may not do things like shelves installation as originally discussed. They seemed professional on initial evaluation and at the beginning, but now I am regretting that I hired them."

Garrett walked us through the whole process and was always very prompt. If he said he would show up at 9 AM, he would show up at 9 AM. He was also very upfront about our costs?no surprises. Our new living room looks great! I highly recommend Garrett for any renovations!"

Basement remodelings FAQs
While building a wine cellar requires a significant investment, it can increase your home's resale value over time. Although you might not see an immediate return, the long-term ROI benefits can be substantial. Because they're often built in areas that would otherwise be unused, wine caves can add to your home's resale value. Storing a bottle of wine in a controlled environment for five years can increase its value. Once you build the space, you can strategically buy an increasing number of vintages as an investment that pays off down the road.
A wine cellar doesn't need to be underground; you can build it in any suitable area of your home. An above-ground cellar offers easy access and integration with your living spaces, while an underground cellar provides stable climate conditions and energy efficiency. Proper insulation and climate control ensure your wine maintains optimal conditions in any location.
Yes, wine cellars need ventilation to ensure optimal air circulation and precise climate control. A proper system regulates temperature and humidity, preserving your wine collection's quality. Good ventilation prevents air stagnation and moisture buildup, keeping your wine in ideal conditions. Without adequate airflow, mold and mildew can develop, potentially damaging labels and corks. Ventilation systems also help eliminate hot spots that could prematurely age your wines.
Yes, any home can have a wine cellar installed if the space is properly prepared. A dedicated area with a solid foundation, proper insulation, and reliable climate control—whether in a basement, walk-in closet, or converted crawl space—can support a wine cellar. This flexibility allows you to enjoy optimal wine storage in any type of home.
