"Remodel went as planned.  Schedule was a little on the slow side but acceptable.  Shower surround installed cracked a few tile during installation that were repaired and the installation was finished. <br />"

"This is a rental unit, and Ken's professionalism included both his usual outstanding electrical repairs, and also interacting well with the tenant. He set appropriate expectations, e.g. his arrival time, and then met them. In fact, upon completion of his repairs, the tenant called me to make sure I knew what a great job he'd done!"

"Any discrepancy that I found Jake was responsive to remedy the outcome and was courteous. For the most part JAM was timely in completing the projects. When it comes to cost JAM is probably not the cheapest contractor in town however, for the workmanship and result it is money well spent and you certainly get what you pay for. It was a pleasure having JAM construction do what I didn't have the time/skill to accomplish on my own. Jake handled the added difficulty well of having to consult with my wife over the phone who was 4 states away from the project at the time."

"So far Ricky Troutman is doing a great job, by far the best we have had here in Enid.  We have a considerable amount of work yet to do so I will do a further review when it is all completed.  At this point I am very pleased with his work and would recommend him based on what I've seen him do.  He is fair, easy to work with, listens to what you want and tries hard to please. <br />"

I would highly recommend him to anyone. My new house looks awesome and we are very happy. <br />"

"First, he offered to do it at no charge given my predicament. He worked it in his already busy schedule. He fabricated and installed crown molding. He removed and replaced interior trim. He did an artistic pattern with travertine along a backsplash and arched window that was above and beyond what we expected or what the average providers will do. He installed patio door and side lights, but first demolished the entire exterior wall and added extension to create a show-like view outside the room. Our kitchen is a show piece. Friends have commented, "it look like something straight out of a magazine!""

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Tahlequah, OK

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.
