"We hired lions den for hardwood floor refinishing and a custom staircase railing. They did an amazing job!! I highly recommend and I support their modesty. I have worked with many contractors, who have the tendency to overcharge, price up material costs, and do the project their way. These guys didn't. They made sure the project was on our terms! Super easy to work with!! "

"We originally reached out to Nick based on a referral. As new homeowners, it was important for us to find someone that we felt we could trust, and we found that to always be the case with Nick and his team. They made the entire process far easier than we ever imagined a kitchen remodel could be. Nick is professional, organized, communicative, honest, and went above and beyond to make sure that we were happy with every element of the project. We LOVE our new kitchen and felt that the team really delivered the highest quality services while being very reasonably priced compared to other quotes that we received. We will be reaching out to Nick for other home projects in the future and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone!"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Syracuse, NY

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.
