"We have a ranch style home. We wanted to remove the wall between our living room and kitchen, put in an island and replace the cabinets in the kitchen. We also tore up all of the carpeting on the first floor and put in luxury vinyl tile Our project started by having the opportunity to work with Jenn Sesniak from Blue Bird Designs. Met with Jenn and an hour later she had come up with the design for our dream kitchen. Jenn understood perfectly what we wanted. Worked primarily with Scott from Restoration Plus once the project started. He answered every question we had and more. He was very professional and oversaw all phases of our project in a very impressive manner. The work they did was fantastic. We love our new island, cabinets, counters and appliances. We had Pioneer cabinets installed and they look perfect. Our Paxton counters are more than we thought they would be. All of this was made possible through the guidance and efforts of Restoration Services. We will call them every time we have work to be done at our house going forward."

"This was my second project with F and J, and they both went well and were completed as projected.  In order to contain some of the costs, it was my desire to do some of the minor  updates  myself (painting, mirror installation, towelbars, and drawer pulls.  F and J are very detail oriented, and would have done a fine job with these, for anyone not wanting to do it themselves.   Also, I think they offer several "turnkey"  remodels for standard bathroom sizes.    Jack was very flexible, and allowed me to purchase my own cabinets, plumbing fixtures, counter top and shower doors (rather than run it all through his account).  So the job amount shown above does not include these elements, which added about another $3000.  I still saved a bundle over some of my other estimates, and  I'm totally thrilled with the final results!  I was also pleased with the tasteful design suggestions.  Jack really does care about his customers. <br />"

"Excellently.  The only delay was from the weather, we had a really wet spring in Michigan.  But they worked though most of it.  <br /> <br /> We are sitting in a room of the addition that "Jack Built".  It is a beautiful space that far exceeds our expectations.  The detail work is something to behold and we are sure we will enjoy it for many years.  <br /> <br /> Following a bad storm thousands were without power, we were without power for nearly a week.  Jack arrived with a electric generator so he and crew could continue to work.  He discovered our basement flooded , he used the generator to plug in our sump pump to empty the water.  He turned on the dehumidifier  and two fans.  His quick action saved us quite a bit including no obvious mold problems. <br /> <br /> We would very highly recommend Jack Duncan Palmer Builders."

"After receiving three bids, we decided to work with Brad and Lauri of Carpentry Plus and we are so glad we did. The remodel was comprised of about 2/3 of our downstairs space including the kitchen, dining room, laundry room, 1/2 bath and the adjoining hallway, plus the flooring in our foyer and sunporch. We were extremely happy with the quality of their work, the consistent professionalism and thoughtful care and advice as we worked through a complex project. The work included removal of walls, reworking air runs, lots of wood working including matching colors, installing new cabinets and countertops, new flooring, paint, electrical, plumbing and new windows. Carpentry Plus provided many great ideas, was flexible, which was necessary as the project took place during the COVID-19 shut-down and treated our project as if it was their own home. We have already signed up for some additional projects with them and expect that Carpentry Plus to be our go-to contractor in the future."

"They did a good job. There were some issues with getting them to come back and finish a few items and check things but they did come out and it was eventually all finished. The salesmen were super nice and the workers cleaned up well."

"My service tech, Jordan Foy, called promptly in the morning and arrived right on schedule. He was friendly, knowledgeable and did a great job installing my sump pump and the underground line. He made sure I approved of what he was going to do each step of the way. He was also very nice to my golden retriever puppy who wanted to be his assistant. I will be using Ayers Basement Systems again for additional work on my basement next spring."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Charlotte, MI

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.
