"Jason and Miller Home Group, so many great things to say about them. If we could give more than five stars in this review we would, and we mean it. We were first-time major-home-renovation homeowners when beginning the search for a company/contractor to renovate our basement, and after the first round of receiving quotes from several other places, we almost gave up. We decided to look again and received a few more quotes, and what set Miller Home Group (MHG) apart from all others was Jason’s vision and ability see a layout that we could not see ourselves. I think this is the most important thing other potential clients of MHG need to hear...all of the other companies listen to our ideas and gave us a pricing… that’s it…no new ideas, no excitement. Jason’s vision, alone, is a value no other company is offering. "

We are family owned and operated since 1952, provides home repair construction services in Delaware, Montgomery and Chester Counties as well as New Jersey and have been providing residential and commercial renovations and remodeling to the surrounding community ever since. We specialize in basement remodeling and conversions, windows, garage doors, fire and water damage, and many other reliable contracting services. Let our reputation of doing whatever it takes to get your job done on time, on budget, and to your satisfaction give you peace of mind. Our engineering background means we accomplish what others say is impossible. We always focused on our client goals and delivering high value outcomes.

"After reviewing a number of contractors provided by Angie's, we hired D. Willis, GCI, to renovate our basement that had been infested with mold. I must say that it was a great decision. We worked with Perry who is knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. He is available to communicate at all times and is extremely knowledgeable. In addition, his wife, Meredith, a decorator, was available to offer her expertise. The staff, material and workmanship were of the highest quality. The end product was what we had hoped for as it was bright, inviting and extremely welcoming. Of note is the bathroom as the walk-in shower, the toilet and sink cabinet were of the highest quality. In sum, based on my experience, I highly recommend this company to you. Judy Young"

Timson Builders, Ltd., has been helping homeowners and businesses in Chester, Delaware and Montgomery counties realize their dreams for over 30 years. Whether the job is a small specialized residential renovation or a major commercial construction project, it will receive the same attention to detail and budget. As fully-licensed and insured on-site general contractor, we manage a team of skilled, professional subcontractors who understand our commitment to the highest quality craftsmanship. Our reputation for exceeding homeowners' and architect's expectations has resulted in a legacy of referrals and satisfied customers. Let us meet with you to show some examples of our diverse portfolio and talk about how we can help you realize your construction goals.

"We found Stan on Angiâ s List for a remodel of our unfinished basement and we were impressed with his knowledge, his ideas, and his commitment to doing quality work. When we first met, we told him that we had a baby on the way and were working with a tight window to hopefully complete the project before the baby was born. We hired him and we knew that we made the correct decision because he was determined to make that deadline (and he did). Stan also worked with us on our budget and helped us cut where we needed to in order to make our dream basement come true. He handled all of the permits and talked with the borough for us so we didnâ t have to deal with that headache which made the process so much quicker and easier. That was very important to us. Lastly, even though our project was smaller in comparison to what he normally does, we didnâ t feel like he cared about our project any less than others. The commitment and care did not go unnoticed. Thank you Stan for making our basement beautiful for our new family. Highly recommend!"

"I highly recommend Lux Renovations/Owens Corning Basements for refinishing basements. The initial consultant was highly professional and it never felt like he was a ‘salesman’ with high pressure tactics just trying to get his commission. I have never refinished a basement before and assumed it would be the same as any other room in the house but I felt extremely reassured about the materials and methods used to keep the basement in the best condition as possible. When it came to the instillation, I cannot speak highly enough of the people that made it happen. They were prompt, hardworking, considerate, and there was never a moment we were concerned about having people we didn’t know in our home. The results are wonderful. Our basement was feeling like a dingy place we just put stuff but now it is open, clean, and an enjoyable place to be."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Kennett Square, PA

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.
