"If you never read another review, read mine!! Not only has Tony & his fantastic crew done so much professional, exquisite work for me at my own home, they have also done work for my extended family. Total home renovations top to bottom with excellent communication and accountability along the way! I’m not new to renovations due to my professional background as a large loss insurance property adjuster. I’ve referred MANY friends and acquaintances to Dalton Home Center because my referrals trust my judgement due to my previous experiences. Every single time, I refer them to Tony and the Dalton Home Center Team, I ALWAYS get a whole hearted thank you from my referrals! Whether it’s residential, commercial or multi-family oriented, you will not regret hiring this team!!"

"Roofer was able to id issues no other roofer had and should have, as well as knew location covenant requirements stopping me from placing on the wrong roof type. They were very knowledgeable, extremely professional, responsive, and courteous, it did not matter who were speaking to. If we still lived in the area with a new home, we would hire them again hands down and recommend them to our friends. I cannot say enough about how please I am as a customer!"

"We engaged Atlanta Builders for a small backsplash project in our kitchen and laundry room with the hope that if all went well we would hire them to remodel our master and upstairs bathrooms. We initially gave them a down payment of $2,750, half of the project cost upfront. Unfortunately, Atlanta Builders did not cost out the materials properly with the Tile Supplier and the new project price went up to $6,250 after we removed a mosaic inset from the backsplash and continued with only the subway tile. The $6,250 represented $1,350 in tile/caulk materials and $4900 in labor and overhead - a project cost over our budget, but we wanted to get the project done -- it had been 6 months. On delivery of the materials, we discovered the subway edging was not included in the materials and labor. We expected the project cost to now increase to between $7,200 to $8,000 for a simple backsplash job. Obviously, we had to cancel the project. We made an offer to Atlanta Builders for them to retain $1,750 of our initial down payment for their time and the cost of the materials in receipt. However, Atlanta Builders kept the $2,750, now defined as a contractual 'deposit.' We're out $2,750, but consider ourselves lucky having not signed a contract with Atlanta Builders for the master and upstairs bathroom project."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Smarr, GA

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.
