FAQs

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

There are several great options for waterproof basement flooring. For example, epoxy floors are waterproof but are thicker and sturdier than paint. Make sure the concrete substrate has been prepared for application. 

Tile is a designer’s dream, giving you a moisture-resistant surface that’s infinitely customizable. Rubber sheets or tiles are also good waterproof options, particularly for playrooms, workout areas or laundry rooms. 

Vinyl tiles and planks imitate wood or other materials very convincingly, provide moisture resistance and last a long time. And sheet vinyl is affordable and a great waterproofing solution for those in need of quick fixes.

I have been scrambling to find somebody to do my basement, I just bought the house , and the sellers left me a surprise in my basement, MOLD , I am so disgusted with it , they did not disclose it , they had a lot of furniture in the basement so it wasn't where I can see , when they moved and I came to check the house , My God what a surpris , Mr. Mold was waiting for me downstairs 😡😡😡😡 I found Paul he came in gave a price , and I told him he has the JOB... His guys came in and did an amazing JOB , cleaned very well after themselves and they saved my basement. Thank you Paul and your crew , I have my basement back , Now I can do my laundry after 4 weeks , I was scared to go down their and get sick , again, Thank you Paul and your wonderful crew.. 🤗🤗

His carpenters built a studded support wall in our basement after lifting a number of sagging joists. They left the space clean. He planned around our schedule and the work only took one day.

You will not be disappointed. The level of professionalism and commitment is rarely found at Roberts high level. He completed a near impossible deadline basement remodeling in time for wedding guests and the results were beyond impressive. I found Robert to be insightful almost never having to be instructed. A true Craftsman in every sense of the word.

Can’t say enough good things about Joe. We hired him to install flooring in our basement, paint the ceiling, and do some electrical work. He exceeded our expectations and made the space look great. He is thorough and very easy to work with. He even worked through the weekend to ensure the job was finished within the timeframe he had promised.

Larry has installed appliances, lighting & other miscellaneous jobs for me; however, I have been blown away by his carpentry skills - he made me new cupboards & basement stairs. He has performed all of this work with great attention to detail, a pleasant demeanor & honesty. When I checked Thumbtack for help I was expecting a handyman - what I got was a craftsman!

My husband and I recently hired Jim for multiple projects in our home, including entrance door repair, a full basement renovation, flooring installation, and a Deco wall installation. From start to finish, he demonstrated exceptional punctuality, professionalism, responsiveness, and work quality. Work Completed: ✔ Entrance Door Repair: Adjusted the screen door, filled and sanded door holes, removed obstructing trim, installed a new handle and pin pad deadbolt. ✔ Basement Renovation: Removed old paneling, installed six recessed lights with a dimmer switch, ran new TV cable wiring, installed a TV mount, added drywall and wood nailers, painted walls and ceiling, and installed a new interior door and handle. ✔ Flooring Installation: Installed Lifeproof Grandview Marble waterproof luxury vinyl flooring, giving the basement a clean, modern, and durable finish. ✔ Deco Wall Installation: Designed and installed an elegant custom decorative feature wall to enhance the space. ✔ Additional Work: Diagnosed a sump pump issue and helped resolve a leaking pipe. Jim was punctual and reliable, ensuring the projects stayed on schedule. His responsiveness and clear communication made the entire process smooth and stress-free. The value he provided exceeded our expectations, delivering top-tier craftsmanship at a fair price. We are so pleased with his work that we’re hiring him for a custom closet build-out next! If you’re looking for a carpenter who is professional, skilled, and truly takes pride in his work, we highly recommend Jim. Thanks again for a job well done!
