"I had twice contracted individuals to remodel my bathtub. Converting it from a bathtub to a shower only. <br>They didn't do a good job, water leaked all over the floor. <br>I called around and got some estimates. Three contractors came and all had different prices and were trying to take shortcuts. <br>I found Howard Home Improvement number and gave them a call. <br>We set up a date to when they could come and give me an estimate. <br>Contractor showed up on time, was very professional and courteous. After explaining what I wanted done, he took his time and determine what would be the best thing to fix my situation. He then gave me an estimate. <br>His estimate definitely was the lowest from the other contractors. He gave me some options. <br>He was very detailed on what he was going to do and the type of flooring he was going to use. We set up a start date. And also picked the color for the shower floor. <br>He started on the date we had discussed and even moved the finish date because we weren't home on certain days. <br>We were very pleased with this individuals work and would recommend him to other people. <br> <br>Thank you Howard Home Improvement for a job well done !   <br>              <br> <br>"

"Mr. Bennett built a false wall in our entryway to support the ceiling while he removed about 8 feet of the front exterior wall of our house; replaced the framing leaving an opening for the new door and sidelights; installed the door; and hired an electrician to rewire the light switches and a brick mason to do the necessary brick work to move the edge of the brick veneer to match the new door.  Mr. Bennett also repaired some water damage that had occurred over the past 30 years.  He did all the sheet rock work, texturing, and painting required to blend the new work into the existing interior finish.  He also replaced a small section of parquet flooring which had also been damaged by water (I supplied the parquet which was left from the original floor installation). <br /> Mr. Bennett works with one helper, and was here during all phases of the work.  He was very courteous and provided good, knowledgeable answers to all of our questions.  He was flexible and asked for our input on everything that involved the aesthetics of the project.  He stayed with quoted price in spite of a few minor wrinkles as the work went along. <br /> If I need remodeling work done in the future, Mr. Bennett will be the first on my list to call. <br />"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Waco, TX

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.
