"My name is Wesley, and I am a military Veteran. I recently utilized my VA Home Loan Benefits to purchase a brand new home for me and my son. Typically, one would not anticipate having any foundation defects or waterproofing issues when purchasing a brand new home. However, this was not the case with us. We had major issues with our basement, every time that it rained. I decided to reach out to CSI for assistance. They came out to my home in Somerset, KY and thoroughly inspected my basement. After assessing what the problem was, they quoted me an exceptionally reasonable price, and within one week; my problem was solved. I am completely satisfied with the quality of service that I received from CSI, and I would recommend this company to anyone in Kentucky who is having issues with the their home's foundation or issues with any type of leaks in your basement. CSI can be reached at (888) 857-0007, or at CSI4385@gmail.com. P.S. Tell'em dat "Big Wes" sent'chu. OORAH!!"

"Mr. Moreland and his team were on time, stayed late and met all our needs. As the project developed, he was able to incorporate my changing wants and needs. I appreciated his honesty and ideas. I am planning on doing a master bath remodel and opening up the first floor for a little more of an open floor plan shortly as soon as our money allows, thank you all."

"This company is a go to company. I had some large cracks in my foundation due to some prior water damage. I had another company come in for an estimate and they wanted 3 times more money and much more invasive plan. The Basement Guys told me that it was not necessary to do all that and also provides a lifetime warranty. They were very efficient, thorough and very professional. They also cleaned up and were great to work with. They work for the company and do not subcontract. A+ company!"

"We were looking for a carpenter to add crown molding, base molding and moldings around doors and windows in our house as we are remodeling. We saw other good reviews for ACA Handyman on Angie's List and gave them a call. They answered our call, made an appointment and came early to the appointment! All things I have not had other do in the past. They were able to get measurements and a quote during the initial  appointment and we decided to move forward. <br /> <br />We had existing crown molding we were tying into in our hallway and dining room and the ACA Handymen were able to do so without being able to tell! They were on time each day, and although it took an extra day to complete, it worked out fine. We also had them hang a new door to an existing door frame and it looks wonderful. They had to widen the door hinges and added a door handle. There was one split in the molding on the window, but our painter was able to patch it with no problems and you can't tell it was <br /> <br />even there. <br /> <br />We are extremely happy with the outcome of moldings. We wish we would have known about them sooner to do other work in the <br /> <br />house! We will continue to use them on other projects and strongly recommend ACA Handyman to others! <br /> <br />"

"All at Counter Culture Plus went above and beyond to make this remodel a success. Emilie instantly greeted us upon entering and was so helpful. We found the perfect countertop within minutes! We were trying to accomplish quite a lot in a short period of time and they did everything they could to make it happen. G.J. and the counter installers were so nice and great to work with. We got our flooring through Counter Culture at an excellent price and had it installed by someone recommended by Counter Culture. They were excellent! We also had a kitchen island custom built by the person recommended by Counter Culture and are so pleased! We would highly recommend Counter Culture Plus!"

"I contracted with Shield. Roofing to do the roof and siding.  The roof  portion has been completed. The roofers were efficient and courteous and I'm pleased with the job. The siding has not been done, pending a start date. I'll be submitting <br /> another review for that portion, once completed <br />"

"We started using John at first to roof our garage, just to see how he worked out and attention to details. He did a fine job. Next I had him do our upstairs bathroom, gave him a key to our house so he could do to the bath while we went on a cruise.With the latest job he did the downstairs bath. The only problem was I had my brother do the electric and John had to redo it as my brother put the electrical outlet too high. <br /> I don't have any problems with John. He does good work, I just wish I had more money to bring him back in to do my basement. <br /> He installed tiles in the kitchen which goes into a small nook that we use for our computer room and then into the bathroom. He had to gut the bathroom then add new plumbing and move some old plumbing to accomodate the new locations for commode and sink. Since this was a porch at one time, one of the walls behind the plaster board still had the old house siding on it. He had to pull that our which turned out to be quite a job, but he was able to manage it. He used our basement to cut the tiles (with our permission), since it was December and cold as heck outside. My house was built in 1923 so we have cracked walls and floors that are not level. It has been 2 1/2 years and there are no problems with the work he did. We did the upstairs bathroom probably 2 years prior to that and there are no problems with it. He also installed a shut off value for the upstair bathtub, which was never there and that was quite a job as the plumbing upstairs for the bath is behind a wall, he cut it down enough to get to the plumbing to install the value and did a nice job on the walls, floors and trim. <br />"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in South Shore, 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.
