"Gary was wonderful to work with from the start - as first time home buyers new to big projects, we had a steep learning curve and he was very helpful and patient throughout the planning process. He was communicative through each step as well, providing timely updates and keeping everything organized. We also had nothing but positive experiences with the two other guys on the project. Jon and Josh were friendly, helpful, and professional, and we always felt very comfortable having them in our house. Not to mention the quality of all the work was phenomenal! We love our new kitchen and are so glad we had such a competent crew on the job."

"Justin is a find. His work is excellent. Work ethic is commendable. His prices are fair. He’s a trustworthy young man who can everything he promises, and sub-contracts quality people for details he wants comparable to his A+ standards. I finally found a home improvement professional that suits my standards. R. L, Allen"

"Hired them based on recommendations and was pleasantly surprised. Melissa was such a big help with remodeling a 40 year old kitchen. They were here to do the job everyday until it was finished. The crew were all great. They did their job and did extra to help an old lady with little things not in their job description, I am sure. Jason was here to answer any questions I might have had. I was so glad that I chose them to do the job. Would recommend them to anyone."

"Carl did a great job from the start. He came over to my house, he presented his work credenrials and showed me some samples of his work. He made me feel comfortable the whole way and felt no pressure at all which was the primary reason I hired him. Carls team also scheduled the Job within the following week and finished in just 2 days which is huge because being without a shower is tough. Carl did great work and was envolved the whole way. From picking the design to even getting right to work along side his team. He even has a person that cleans right behind the crew. I would recommend him to anyone looking for quality work and at a fair price. "

"I had the best luck, that Hawkeyez Construction worked on a neighbors house, and so I got connected to them for my own home remodeling. They did an amazing and thoughtful job remodeling a very aged bathroom that had been put in my walkout basement by handyman types in the 80's. The plumbing and electrical and framing were wrong, and there were leaks, and it was just terrible. I now have a beautiful full bath with all of the issues fixed and Carl and his team of electricians, painters, tilers and other professionals was top notch. Thanks to Carl. his son, Justin for tiling, the Enriques' for painting and a host of other very skilled professionals, my basement bath and painting projects and other baths around my place are done, and I can look around and be amazed by how wonderful everything looks now!!"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Pittsford, 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.
