"The project went great!!! Hayden the general contractor was wonderful. He updated me each and every step of the process and always kept true to his word on cost, timeframe, and etc. I always felt I was in good and trustworthy hands as he and his team worked on each aspect of my garage conversion. He made sure each inspector who came for each area, mechanical, electrical, framing, insulation, and final were all handled efficiently and each one passed on the first try and I was even told by the inspector that they wished every inspection they did went as smoothly. If you need any project done, I highly recommend H&P general contracting. I will do any and all future home projects through Hayden and his company going forward. He definitely gets a 100 star rating from me."

"My wife and I absolutely love the look of our new kitchen. Dan Maries and his crew at All Surface Quality Remodeling did an excellent job in removing the old tile counter top and performed the delicate task of removing the bottom row of existing tile back splash without cracking a single tile on the remaining back splash tiles on the higher rows. Dan and his crew are extremely professional and hard working. They responded quickly to phone calls, showed up on time for work, asked for and listened carefully to our inputs, were easy to work with, and always made the extra effort to make us happy. Their attention to detail was superb. We would use them again and would recommend them to anyone with a kitchen remodel without reservation."

"We recently completed a whole home remodel and addition with CASE Design/Remodeling and we are incredibly pleased with how everything turned out. We trusted them from start to finish as we worked through the design and planning phase to the actual demolition and renovation. We loved our house, but the 1970s design meant that the majority of our square footage was relegated to two rooms: the dining room and the formal sitting room. Meanwhile we had a very small, closed in kitchen and an outdated master bathroom/closet combination. Our goal was to utilize the living space better with a more open arrangement and to get the closet out of the master bathroom so we could use the space better and add a bathtub. We worked through some floorplan ideas with Rob Foster, a local draftsman who was recommended to us, and he led us to an arrangement we thought could work. After deciding on CASE as the contractor, we took our plans to them for tweaking and for the final overall plan. Melissa Haas was our designer and she did an incredible job of converting the hard work we’d put into our dream boards (digital and tri-fold poster board!) into a reality that we loved. We didn’t feel like we were sacrificing anything along the way as she helped guide us through the selection process. Melissa’s expertise and way around the design software made the selection and design process exciting and much less stressful than we thought it would be. Her knowledge of materials and costs helped keep us on track as she made suggestions that aligned with our vision AND were within our budget. I cannot imagine having to make these decisions on our own because we really leaned on Melissa for her design background and as a check on the ideas we had. Melissa listened so well to how we wanted our space to function to fit our family’s needs and created that with a large kitchen island with ample storage; minimal upper cabinetry to maximize window lines and natural light; a functional pantry for all the things; a spacious drop-zone/laundry room; a stunning master bathroom with a herringbone accent shower wall and deep bathtub; and a screened-in back porch that provided connectivity between our master bedroom, addition and backyard. During the pre-construction walkthrough with our project manager, Seth Alexander, he was so professional and easy-going, and we knew we were in good hands. Seth was honest from the outset that not everything was going to go right. And he was right! Things didn’t always go as planned. We were remodeling an entire house and adding square footage at the height of a global pandemic. We ran into issues with some of our cabinetry being the wrong size/color and small problems arose here and there throughout the process. But Seth reassured us of the second thing he said that first day – things are not always going to go right, but they will be right in the end. And again, he was right. To be honest, there were a lot of small issues along the way, but Seth was ALWAYS up front with us and ALWAYS made things right. Seth picked up on the very first ring of every one of our countless calls to him. Honestly, Seth’s responsiveness and willingness to make things right are alone a reason we would hire CASE again. In the end, there was only one unfixable issue related to our original plan for a wood burning fireplace and building requirements that would have required the chimney to be more than 10 feet above the roof line. We ended up settling for a gas fireplace. Every other part of the project actually exceeded the expectations we had and turned out absolutely beautiful. Not to mention – on time and within budget. Even with the delays we experienced, the team managed to get us back into our home within the original timeframe promised – 5 months. A major component of the successful timing was Mike Whitham – the master craftsman assigned to our project. Mike was able to keep things moving forward even when subcontractors were busy on other projects (again, height of the pandemic and remodel renaissance) by doing the work himself. And Mike’s work is IMPECCABLE. His attention to detail is without measure and he treated every part of the process with care as if it were his own home. We cannot recommend CASE enough for their professionalism and their commitment to excellence. It was truly a pleasure to work with Melissa, Seth and Mike – we trusted them and laughed with them and felt it was a little bittersweet to wrap up the project. We wanted the house to be done – but we didn’t want to miss out on seeing them anymore! CASE took on a big job, with two perfectionist, persnickety homeowners, and left us thrilled with the results. We are so thankful we took the plunge when we did and now we are able to enjoy our beautiful home!"

"The Homepro Depot did an awesome job removing a load bearing wall and inserting a wooden beam. They closed in an office area for as well. It was all a smooth transaction, they was informative along the way and cleaned up after themselves daily. I am very happy with the outcome and will be using them for future remodeling!"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Waxhaw, NC

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.
