BASEMENT REMODEL PROJECTS
A basement remodel or complete build-out adds value and extra living space to your home.
The work we do will always be performed to industry standards and specifications. We offer a 5 year warranty on installation along with any associated Manufacturers warranties.
BASEMENT REMODELING
In some houses, basements are filled with cobwebs and boxes and avoided at all costs. In others, it’s the kids’ domain with shelves overflowing with toys. Or it’s a man cave with a big screen TV and a bar with sports paraphanalia on the walls. Maybe you keep a drum set down there to muffle the noise for the neighbors. Which one is your basement? If you’re reading this, it’s likely the cobwebs and boxes one and you’re looking for ideas and a better solution. Think of the endless possibilties!
You could create a space for entertaining or relaxing with your family with a finished basement. Maybe add a guest room and bathroom downstairs. Design an entire apartment down there and rent it out on AirBnB for some extra cash. Maybe add a media room so you can watch movies on a big screen without the sticky floors in a theater. Your basement could be a workshop, an exercise space, or all of the above. Or, just add more utility and storage space so you can save space in closets upstairs.
If you’re selling your house soon, completing basement renovations will add even more value. Homebuyers are looking for any aspect that makes the house special, and a finished basement is definitely going to stick in their minds when they’re looking at other houses.
If you’re in your house to stay, you probably have a million renovation ideas you want to complete to make your house a dream home. But where to start? Basement renovations are an easy way to start making your dream home a reality. It’s like adding on to your house without actually having to add on! Basements are your chance to add bonus living space to your house without having to cut down on backyard space or get even closer to your neighbor’s house. It’s basically free space you haven’t remodeled to your advantage yet.
Whether you have an unfinished basement or a basement that needs refinishing, Solomon Contracting can help bring your vision to life. Basement renovations involve a few more considerations than renovations in other areas of your home. Once you’ve decided on the best use of your basement space, the design will require some staging elements that are essential to the success of the project – like waterproofing, plumbing, and electrical.
Rest assured, the Solomon Contracting teams have both the technical and design skills to make your basement remodeling project successful. If you’re worried about how much a basement renovation will cost, give us a call anyway. We’ll help you design the basement remodel with your budget in mind and stick to that budget during construction.
DESIGN PROCESS
We aren’t just laying down carpet and putting up drywall in your basement. Solomon Contracting can help you design your basement remodel and find the materials and products that fit your budget and your design wishes.
The design contracts we offer encompass the project’s full scope and consider budget concerns as well as our customers’ desires. It’s something that sets us apart from our competitors and we’re very proud of it.
Once the design is decided and agreed upon, we move on to the building contract. Our building contracts are separate from the design, so it’s possible for you to take the design contract to a different contractor, but who better to remodel your basement than the contracting company that worked with you so closely to design it?
The design estimate fee is 5% of the lower end of the expected contract buy. For example, if the project estimate is $10,000-15,000, then the design fee is 5% of the $10,000.
Why isn’t the design estimate free, you ask?
Well, we’re going to work closely with you to make this full-scope design the best it can possibly be. We’ve been doing this for 30 years and we know our way around a basement remodeling project. But if you want to take the design to a different contractor, you can.
We charge a design contract fee because we value our expertise and the amount of time we spend working with our customers to design the perfect basement remodel.
WHY SOLOMON CONTRACTING IS THE RIGHT CHOICE
We have expanded and perfected our technical expertise over the last 30 years and our customers know it from the moment they meet us for an estimate. It’s why they feel comfortable recommending us to their neighbors.
We’ll work with you from the beginning of the project through the end, making sure we’re staying in budget and remodeling your basement the way you envisioned with our manufacturer certified teams.
If you let us build your dream basement, we’ll protect it with our workmanship warranties so you can just enjoy your new, finished basement.
