"Eva is a true a professional, very thorough and helped us navigate through the covid process. She went through every point of the project with us prior to starting and updated us daily when she stopped in to check on progress and quality of the crew. She was very involved with all the details of the project and nothing was too small for her to discuss with us. From the start of our kitchen and bath remodel, she saw it through to a beautiful completion.

"Once in a great while, if you're lucky enough to hire Leroy and Kyle Millard to remodel a room in your home, you will not think of hiring anyone else for future projects. They are true professionals in every sense of the word from start to finish. They show up every day on time, are well planned and know exactly what they want to accomplish each day. They don't cut corners, but do the same high quality work that you'd expect they'd do in their own homes. The project to remodel our bathroom was finished when they said it would be finished. We also liked the fact that they didn't do other projects when they were working on ours. That meant a lot to us. Another thing that meant a lot to us was the finish work. It's what we have to live with every day after the project is finished. They are also excellent finish carpenters. We want to mention how skilled Kyle is in putting in tile. No one could have done a more perfet job. We couldn't be happier with our new bathroom. "

"We contracted Henry as our GC to lead a 175K addition/renovation of our home. We added a master suite (w/ walk-in closet), another bedroom, a play/rec-room, and a workshop. We also took down the walls of an existing room to open up the common areas and built a hallway of pocket doors. We found him to be a great communicator. His subs were professional and courteous. Highly recommend him for others and would be happy to hire him again for future projects."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Stratford, CT

While the terms remodeling, renovating, and finishing are often used interchangeably, there are some differences. Remodeling your basement transforms the space by changing its layout, adding new features, or altering its function. Renovating restores the existing space to like-new condition without major structural changes. Finishing converts an unfinished basement into a livable area with walls, ceilings, and flooring.

A full basement remodel typically takes two to six weeks, depending on the project's complexity and any unforeseen challenges. Factors like design changes, permitting, and material availability can affect the timeline, as well as the availability of the contractors you’re working with. Remember that the bigger the project, the longer it will take to complete.

Remodeling your basement is not just about gaining extra space—it's a savvy investment. You can expect around a 70% return on investment (ROI), comparable to other major home improvements like kitchen or bathroom remodels. Adding functional living space boosts your home's value and appeals to potential buyers. Plus, converting your basement into a rental apartment could provide additional income, increasing your return even more.
