"Sunnydale Electric did a great job, they came in installed the required breakers, cable and outlets. Very clean install. They also installed the EV Charger for me, mounting it to the wall and connecting the charging cable. I was able to register it with ChargePoint worked perfectly. I would hire them again"

"We hired Jim to put Everlast siding on our house, after reading positive reviews of Ellington Woodworks. We chose to go with Everlast Advanced Composite Siding for our siding project. When we first saw the j channels and trim on the front of the house, we assumed it was not finished. The edges were roughly cut, and the joints were not mitered; while the Everlast siding, itself, looked fine. We were so unhappy with the appearance and quality of the j channels and corners, that we sent Everlast a letter about it. They were so concerned, they sent a rep to our house, who informed us that it was not their product. They made inquiries and informed us that Jim got two quotes from Richard’s supply: one with Everlast corners and j channels, and one with cheaper, flimsy vinyl. Jim chose the vinyl without consulting us, no doubt to save himself money, in cost of materials. We never had a chance to get the right product for our house. Now, we are left with the inferior product, due to Jim’s decision not to inform. We are left to live with his poor judgement, or pay thousands of dollars, to correct for Jim’s witlessness and ineptitude. We wanted this project to be a one-time home improvement; with improvement being the key word. Instead, we are out several thousands of dollars and years of regret for our choice of Jim and Ellington Woodworks. Speaking of Jim’s ineptitude, he also hung shutters at different heights, leaving us with holes in the siding. All he had to do, was to look at how the other shutters were hung. So now we have additional holes in our siding, again thanks to his lack of basic carpentry skills. If you Google “carpentry skills,” you should see a list of several skills a carpenter should possess to be successful. Of those skills, Jim certainly displayed deficits with regard to Communication, Attention to detail, and Problem solving. He did not miter the window trim, and we are left with the “band aids” to cover up for the corners with the inferior product. He wasted thousands of dollars of our money by choosing an inferior product to mix with the Everlast. We would have gladly paid the difference to have better materials and are left, instead, with something that cannot be undone without paying 10,000 or more, thanks to Jim. He also damaged some corners of our windows, by smashing them, leaving holes open to the elements. He was extremely motivated to leave the project. The only way to correct for the Jim’s incompetence, is to pay thousands of dollars, where we already out of thousands of dollars that we will never recoup. We strongly do not recommend Ellington Woodworks. Our experience with Jim and Ellington Woodworks has left us with botched work, and anger and disappointment."

"It was a pleasure working with Ryan at Carolina Casa on my crawl space sealing. Ryan was very willing to work with me on the scope and cost of the project. His cost was the most reasonable and the quality of the work was outstanding. It was very easy to communicate with him and he provided helpful and thoughtful advice on this and other unrelated projects. I highly recommend Carolina Casa for crawl space moisture control and sealing."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Zebulon, 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.
