"The roofing professional named Eddy that came to my home had the utmost professionalism and a wide range of knowledge on a multitude of questions I ask during his visit. I'm confident in stating that as a senior level supervisor with over 23 years of experience, I wouldn't hesitate to state that Eddy carries himself as a skillful and experienced hardworking individual. I was very pleased with the representation that he presented for Jackson Roofing & Remodeling and will definitely seek them out in the future for any roofing related items. I would highly recommend this company to anyone seeking roofing and remodeling expertise from true professionals."

"We had such a great experience with New Age Flooring. We called Brandon Wednesday and he came right out and gave us an estimate. He worked with us since we needed it done fast and installed the next day. The gentlemen showed up on time and completed in one day. Our floors look amazing and we love them. I will definitely recommend them and use them in the future. <br />"

"<p>The living room wall is perfect. My daughter & son in law came over after all completed and were amazed at the good work. I am too. I have had many so-called home repair people in my life. One I hired to install a ceiling fan with light as I had a foot out of commission because of an operation.  When my foot healed, I had to remove the ceiling fan and reinstall it, as obviously the man did not know what he was doing.</p> <p>With Carpenter Construction, you will not find that kind of shabby work.</p> <br />"

"<p>He was always on time and professional. The house had rotten wood that he replaced....the house looked new. They did not leave a mess behind and cleaned up as they went. My father was very please with the job done, he was priced lower than the other bids and the work was exceptional!</p> <p>Plumbing....Kitchen facet broke and pipes where linking under the counter. Again, was on time, replace facet and repair the link ...left no mess. </p> <p> My sister called someone to cut down some dead trees....they left the trees and a huge mess, I called Greenup's and they cleaned up the trees and charged my father less than the other guys to cut and REMOVE some more trees. I didn't know he did trees but, the other guy left such a mess....</p> <p>Hoping to do some remodeling for the bathroom soon and Greenup will be the ones I call.</p> <p><br /></p> <br />"

"James was our sales person.  He was a few minutes early for our initial meeting (which was fine).  He was detailed in his explanation of the windows.  My husband could not be present for the meeting so James made it very easy for me to explain the details to my husband.  He knew we were getting quotes from various companies and was patient as we went through that process. When presented with a better quote, he reduced his quote to obtain our business.  He told me the price would never change once the contract was signed.  After the contract was signed and the work on the windows began, we realized the quote didn't reflect all of the windows; it was one short.  But true to James' word the price quoted on the contract did not change.  They replaced that last window and did not charge us for it.   <br /> On a more personal note, my beagle had to be confined to a certain area to stay out of their way.  It was pretty hot outside and they took time to make sure he had plenty of water through out the day.  They did not have to do that, but I appreciated the fact that they took the time to do so. <br /> To my surprise (and delight) the job was completed in 1 1/2 days.  The guys were professional, courteous and friendly.  I am very proud of the windows and my only regret is that we waited so long to get them replaced. <br />"

"Larry was hired because I was short on available time to personally complete. I am glad I was short on time; the work looks great. Larry is detailed oriented and truly appears to take pride in his work. The work is far better than my own painting work, and also far better than another contractor I had used a couple of years ago.? Larry will be my first call for future painting.?"

"Mr. Gilbert was wonderful. Arrived early, completed the job before scheduled and asked if I had anything else I needed help on. I sure did! He put up a mirror that I haven't been able to put up in a year. Forever grateful Mr. Gilbert, Thank you for your wonderful services! LaWanda #ArmyStrong"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Russellville, KY

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.
