"They did a spectacular job considering what they had to work with when they started. The roof is exceptional. I don't have any leaks and I don't have roof shingles blowing off in my yard or the neighbors' yard; it is wonderful. The thing that I was most impressed was that they cleaned up after they were done. These guys went out and made sure that the nails were up and everything. I was just very pleased. I have recommended them to a friend. The price included the tear off of the old roof. At some places there were three to four layers of roofing shingles thick and there was a layer of wood shakes. People had just gone over and over it. I was way beyond the village code, but I bought the house like that. It leaked and I tarred it until I got enough money to get the roof done. They also insulated over the porch for me. They did the garage roof as well. I absolutely had no complaints. I had a lot of people into my house to do work. This was the first group of people that I have had here that did what they promised and cleaned up their mess. I had no problems and no need to call them back. I got prices from several other people. They weren't the cheapest, but they were right down there. It was a fair price. They had it done when they said they would have it done."

"The most impressive part of their service was the turn around time. From the time we had the first meeting to the time I had finished plans, only a week had past. The plans were also very detailed and my subs had no problem following them for construction. Lane was available if we did have any questions and did a couple of revisions for no charge. I am currently using him to design an addition for a home I am working on."

"The most honest guy in the industry. Upstairs shower was leaking into downstairs kitchen. Plumber advised it was a grout issue. Found Rob on Angies List. He cam over and took one look at my shower floor and said its in perfect shape. He spent the next hour trouble shooting the issue before discovering it was a leaky valve behind the shower faceplate (Plumbing issue). During this process Rob took the time to explain in great detail what he was doing and gave me an invaluable education on my shower unit. I insisted on paying him for his time but Rob refused. Incredible guy. He's going right to the front of my Rolodex just behind my wife. Thanks Rob/Dynamic Kitchens & Baths. There are some great ones left in this industry."

"I can not say enough positive things about Eckert Construction. I entrusted them with some size-able home projects, and was more than pleased with every facet of the job, from the initial consultation/estimate, all the way through the respective completions. They were professional, courteous, and reliable - I have recommended them to others, will continue to do so, and would of course hire Chris and his crew again without hesitation. I was fortunate to have found them."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Whitehall, NY

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.
