My initial contact with Jim Burke, of Crestone General was pleasant, informational, and uplifting.  Mr. Burke informed me that his company usually does commercial projects; however, because I was in need of a good contractor to remodel two bathrooms into a handicapped accessible bathroom, he made the decision to bid on and do the project.  He took into account the situation in which I'd found myself following my father's severe stroke, and the fact I wished to get my father discharged from the transitional rehabilitation center and home as soon as possible.

Mr. Burke, his employees, and the subcontractors were very professional, punctual, and polite.  They arrived on time each morning and worked hard throughout the day, stopping only for a lunch break.  Prior to beginning the demolition portion of the job, they laid down heavy plastic in the hallways, on the stairs, in the bedroom adjacent to the bathroom, and on the bathroom floor downstairs as well, to insure the cream-colored carpeting did not get stained or dirty  I was quite surprised and pleased that they took the time to clean up after themselves, including daily cleaning of the large rug in the entry of our home, sweeping of the floor in the new bathroom, sweeping out the garage, and disposing of any trash on a daily basis.  Additionally, upon completion of the project, they even cleaned the new bathroom from top to bottom for me.

The plan for the bathroom was a work in progress and although an initial design was provided, Mr. Burke and his subcontractors worked with me, respected my wishes, and several redesigns were done during the project.  Ideas were passed back and forth, suggestions made, and at all times I was treated with the utmost respect and consideration

The finished bathroom is one which anyone would be extremely proud and pleased to have in their home.  It adheres to ADA specifications, and is lovely in appearance. The shower stall is large and roomy and the floor is sloped so well that the water drains perfectly, not even getting the floor outside of the stall damp. In fact, when the nursing supervisor for Providence Home Health came by to check on my father, she stated:  "This is my dream bathroom!". 

I highly recommend Crestone General and will continue to call upon this company to do additional projects for me in the future.

"My first project with High Level Construction and Jayme Phillips was for an outside garage door replacement. During the door replacement job, we discussed my desire to remodel my home which was built in the early 70's. I expressed my desire to have my home remodeled but did not want the added stress of choosing any materials or coming up with the basic design because I do not visualize well. I knew it would be very stressful and overwhelming for me to be involved in the planning phase of this project. Jayme was very excited to take on the task and loved having control over the entire project. Jayme made all of the design decisions including picking out all of the materials used in the remodel which was very acceptable to me. They only decision that I made for the entire scope of the work was to pick out the wall color. The quality of the work was exceptional and second to none. Jayme's attention to detail was impeccable. I loved everything he chose for my home and the end project was a home I will be proud of and he was always careful to keep the work within my budget. I am enjoying my new home and I am so glad that Home Advisor chose High Level Construction and made our meeting possible. I highly recommend Jayme Phillips and High Level Construction to anyone wanting home improvement work done at a reasonable price and great quality of work. Recommended? Yes"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Palmer, AK

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.
