"I had a great experience with this contractor. I needed a quote on many projects and they were very versitile. I ended up only needing them for a painting project, but they did a great job, no hassle, they were the first and just about the only one who responded to my request on H.A. The price was very fair and the quality and efficiency of the work was greater than my expectations. I will continue to use this company in the future."

"Reliable, Skilled, and Detail-Oriented – Highly Recommend!” Had them help with a bathroom remodel, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, they were punctual, respectful of my space, and extremely detail-oriented. They handled everything from drywall and tiling to fixture installation with real craftsmanship. What stood out most was how clean they kept the work area each day and how clearly they communicated throughout the project. The bathroom looks better than I imagined, and I’ll definitely be calling Home Project Relief LLC again for future work. Highly recommended!"

"We couldn’t be happier with our new deck! From start to finish, Nailed It Builders were professional, reliable, and easy to work with. They took the time to explain all our options, gave us a clear and fair estimate, and stuck to the timeline they promised. The craftsmanship is outstanding—the deck is solid, beautifully finished, and exactly what we envisioned. Every cut, joint, and railing was done with precision, and you can tell they take real pride in their work. They also kept the work area clean and safe throughout the project, which we really appreciated. It’s rare to find a contractor who combines great communication, top-notch quality, and genuine care for their clients, but Nailed It Builders delivered on all fronts. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing a deck replaced."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Salem, OH

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.
