"I found PuroClean on Angie's List and am so pleased that I called them! Just a few days after buying a new home, a torrential downpour overwhelmed a storm drain and rainwater entered my basement through the basement door, soaking the carpet. I called PuroClean and spoke with Lauren just before 10am. By noon, Erickson was at the house assessing the damage. He provided a recommendation and an estimate. By 2pm, Zach arrived to start the job. He pulled up the water damaged carpet, making sure to do the cuts in the straightest and cleanest line possible so adding new carpet back would be less difficult, and two pieces of baseboard. He also humored my overly excited 6-year old daughter who was eager to watch him work. I was impressed by how courteous everyone was and how they appeared to work as a team unit. They were courteous, responsive, and did a great job. Hopefully I won't need them again, but if I do, I will call PuroClean."

"I signed the bathroom remodel contract on Jan 25, 2019. Today is Jul 18, 2019 and the work has not been completed. Everyone you work with is friendly, professional, polite, and well-meaning in responsiveness. Edgar’s quality of work is outstanding and my bathroom is beautiful without a doubt!! But now that the company’s been paid, I’ve been forgotten. My windows don’t have screens, so I can’t open them for fresh air without bugs coming in. I was told the screens were ordered in May which was my last contact with anyone. The contents for under my vanity have been stored in boxes because my shelves have not been installed. This is unacceptable! Mr. Khader Mughrabi, VP, called me after I signed the contract to thank me for my business. I want him to know it’s been almost six months and the work’s still not done. I just want my job completed and after that I won’t contact Remodel USA again!!"

"Randy, our electrician, was excellent. He was professional, polite, and efficient. He explained what he was doing and was very ingenious when we discovered that the screws to hang the fixture were not long enough. He problem-solved the situation on the spot and was able to hang the fixture with a few minor adjustments. It looks great. When he replaced the basement light switch, he explained why it went bad. I was concerned that there was a wiring problem in our basement and he assured me that the rest of the wiring was done very well."

Plus their prices are very reasonable. Happy Customer!"

"I am so lucky to work with Mr. Murat and his crew to renew my kitchen, bathroom. It was great experience, they showed professionalism the moment they got into my house. Very responsive, delivered as promised. They also did couple extra work with no charge even it was not included in initial estimate. To be honest, things went better then my expectations. We also continued living in the house while construction happening. Me and wife thought it would be a nightmare but they collaborated very well and we did not have any major issues. Definitely would suggest working with him. Hope he will be around if I would need any other help..."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Upper-Fairmount, MD

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.
