"Gary is by far the best contractor I have ever used. He just completed a full kitchen remodel and a smaller bathroom remodel, and I could not be more pleased. The work was completed on time and on budget and it looks great. I needed to do this project from across the country, and he kept me well informed throughout. I would use da Vinci again for any future work and highly recommend"

"We renovated our kitchen in our 1920s Tudor home in Fairport Village. We found Piccirillo Enterprises, which is really Tony Piccirillo and his crew, on Angie's list and used a coupon for a consultation and estimate for kitchen redesign. Tony works with a designer who visited our home, measured and drew up plans for our kitchen. Tony reviewed the plans and provided an estimate. We were pleased with the design and felt Tony's estimate was fair, so we went ahead with the project. Tony and his team were very professional and their work was high quality. We could not be more pleased with our new kitchen. Tony's quote was very transparent and he invoiced the work as it was completed. We found the whole team to be trustworthy and courteous, which is obviously important when you have a crew of workers in your home on a daily basis for several weeks. We would (and probably will) hire Tony again for other projects in our home."

"I had a great experience with this company. They were honest, hard working and met with me weekly to discuss continued plans for my bathroom remodels. Great attention to detail, great communication and they even let my dog out each day. I would highly recommend this company for your home renovations. They worked with me to keep to a sensible budget as well."

"Josh is professional, creative and very talented. Josh is a perfectionist and treated our kitchen and basement/bathroom remodel like it was his own. His pricing was more than fair with no hidden surprises. He transformed our house to what we wanted it to be and my wife and I couldn't be happier with the finished product. This was our first major home renovation and he helped us make decisions the entire process. We will certainly hire JL again and have already been recommending him to family and friends!!!!"

"This is a company that shows up and gets the job done. I have hired Dan and his crew for my 2300 square foot basement remodel including a movie room and custom bar. Dan isnâ t a company that gets a job and sends in subs like Iâ ve had contractors doing the past. Heâ s and his crew are here to get it done properly. My basement was done so well I had him remodel an entire office location of mine. Just canâ t say enough about the quality and just the knowing it will be done right and on time."

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.
