"I sent their office a request for a quote and heard back within a couple hours, they came out, measured took photos and explained options. Received the quote same day. Great correspondence, very professional. The installers came out and did a great job! Cleaned up their mess and made sure we where 💯 satisfied. I would recommend them over any of the other companies out there. It's a breath of fresh air to do a project and not have any issues."

"Can't say enough good things about iKitchens - they were fantastic!! We already had an IKEA kitchen design, but they reviewed the design and made some very helpful suggestions. They were great at explaining the process and what to expect. Once the work started, every single workman was very professional and did very high quality work. Everything was on time or ahead of the schedule. They were happy to answer questions and very willing to make a few minor adjustments along the way. The end result is better than we ever dreamed!! We totally recommend iKitchens!!!!!!!!"

"We hired James, Dan, and their crew for a major deck renovation. The level of thoughtfulness and craftsmanship throughout the project was outstanding. This was not a simple refresh — it involved removing an existing hot tub, renovating a cabana, reworking the deck framing to convert it into a single-level deck, installing a new staircase, and adding a cable rail system. Every aspect of the project was approached with precision and care, and the finished product is without flaw. They were easy to work with from start to finish, handling decisions and mid-project modifications thoughtfully and professionally. The whole crew was consistently approachable and friendly, and clearly took pride in their work. Daily cleanup was always done well, which we especially appreciated since we had a puppy at the time. Definitely recommended!"

"Kevin from Crest answered my call the same day and was out to help assess a leak in my attic the next morning (before work). He gave me advice on dealing with the water issue in the attic and quoted me quickly on fixing the leak caused by missing flashing between my roof and the chimney. Very transparent quote and fair pricing (I consulted with contractors and family to gauge the expected price). After I chose Crest to do the work, Kevin had someone up on the roof and got the work done on one of the first clear days. Shingles, flashing, masonry and sealant done while we were at work, no hassle. I would recommend Kevin and team for anyone needing roof repairs."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in South Dartmouth, MA

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.
