"Very nice friendly people, who do high quality professional work. Honest and honorable, when they saw I didn't have the tiles I needed (which I thought I could provide before they started work), they gave me a significant break on the original(already extremely reasonable)quote; and still prepared the wall to make future tile installation easy. When the saw a very small area near the area worked on that they thought might need a small patch, (without my asking) they asked me if I'd like them to give it patch it as part of the other work. The worker did a great job within the time they quoted. They found a pipe from upstairs had a small leak, affecting discoloration of the wall they were to paint. Rather than leave their work to be ruined by the ongoing leak, they volunteered (after showing me) to paint up to a point,and make arrangements to come back after I can get management to fix the leak from upstairs. They're honest, hardworking and honorable workers;a pleasure to work with."

"I strongly recommend MHI METRO (516-790-4741) for your renovation or construction needs. Romeo, the contractor, ensured that my specifications requests were met and completed before deadline. this was no easy job because of the shortages of supplies due to the pandemic. I was completely satisfied by the renovation of two bathrooms, extensive electrical repairs and the painting of the entire condominium."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Port Washington, 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.
