Basement Finishing or Remodeling, General Contracting

Vicki S. says, "I can't say enough about the quality and performance of this company. From the minute they were hired to the minute they were finished my expectations were exceeded. This job was a large drywall installation. Lately, I have started each project with less and less confidence in each trade. I've come to expect excuses, unclear communication, and low price-to-value. EcoBuild was exactly the opposite. Each request was responded to quickly. They contacted me before each work day with the time of arrival. Work was done quickly and accurately. The people were courteous and cleaned up the work area. The billing was accurate and fair. I'm only afraid to write this glowing review because I don't want them to be too busy next time I have a job!"See more

Basement Finishing or Remodeling

Brenda T. says, "AB&S Contractor truly impressed me with their kitchen remodeling services. From start to finish, their attention to detail and commitment to excellence were evident in every aspect of the project. The cabinets were expertly installed, the floors flawlessly laid, and the painting and backsplash work were executed with precision. What truly set AB&S Contractor apart, however, was the demeanor and professionalism of their team. The young men who worked on my kitchen were not only skilled craftsmen but also kind, respectful, and polite individuals. They took the time to listen to my preferences and concerns, ensuring that the final result exceeded my expectations. Throughout the entire remodeling process, communication was clear and timely, and the team consistently demonstrated their dedication to customer satisfaction. I felt comfortable and confident in their abilities from the moment they started the project to the final touches. Overall, I am thrilled with the outcome of my kitchen remodel, and I owe it all to AB&S Contractor. If you're looking for a remodeling company that combines top-notch craftsmanship with exceptional customer service, look no further. I highly recommend AB&S Contractor for any home improvement project."See more

Q & A

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

What is the best waterproof flooring for a basement?

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.

Dan and his crew did an amazing job with our basement remodel. They completed the project quickly and with good attention to the details. I would definitely hire them for future projects.

Moussa and his crew completely did my basement. Before starting, my basement was completely raw and Moussa worked with me in understanding what work needed to be done how he was going to do it, what the final finishes were going to look like (prior to starting), finished early and was did a tremendous job. I highly recommend Moussa's work. Moussa also gave a fair price, other quotes I received were much higher and doubt they could have done nearly as good of a job. Please contact if you need before / after pictures. All my concerns, big or small, and at any point in the construction process were answered and addressed without hesitation. Nothing to complain about when the job was finished! Task performed (all to code): Framing, drywall, tiled, installed an entire bathroom in the basement (had to install sump pump), concrete, HVAC, gas lines, electrical, lighting, installed a spiral staircase where there was no staircase originally.

We hired Stanford Group to complete a basement renovation for us. We encountered a lot of unexpected issues during the job and the team was EXCELLENT at coming up with a new plan and quickly executing. We couldn’t be happier with the quality of work, responsiveness of the office, and overall experience.

I will be strictly using them moving forward for any house projects. We can’t recommend them enough!

Bryan and crew did an awesome job on my basement remodel. It is extremely difficult to find a reliable contractor that does good work at a fair price. A1 does both. Crew was punctual, did good work , paid attention to details and cleaned up after. I have finally found my go to contractor! DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!

Thank you so much Anthony, Tracie and your team for the hard work, expertise and thoroughness in rebuilding my basement — it looks fabulous!! I've had a some shoddy experiences over the past year with other contractors, so I was extra stressed combing over all the details. Ya'll were so patient with me and made me feel heard. I would love to work Cedar Cypress again!

Juan and his crew were very responsive, on time every morning and was very clear with the scope of work being done from day to day. Juan did my basement stairs, drywall, and even had the lights installed on them. I am very pleased with how everything turned out. I will definitely do business with them again. If you want a real pro hire Juan DBA Kingdom Painting and Remodel LLC.

I had a dark and dingy finished basement last updated 45 years ago I wanted to upgrade to a more comfortable space for a family member to move in. Stan came by and he understood what I was looking for pretty quickly. He had ideas and suggestions for my situation we ended up using which were valuable improvements. The crew did good solid work and showed up when expected and the job got done within the expected timeframe. I got a better result than I was expecting particularly in the bathroom/shower and kitchenette part of the unit. Hiring someone when you are doing a big project is a little overwhelming but these guys are straight shooters.

How can modern improvements improve in the future? Be straightforward in the beginning and know your limitations. If you’re unable to perform a task be big enough to say, “I’ve never done anything like this before” or “I usually tackle smaller projects.” The work that was presented as a final product on my basement renovation did not meet my expectations. Then, when I raised concerns I was told my house was a, “Trap-house.” I’ll cede it’s a 100 year old brick bungalow and that water came in through the backdoor during a heavy downpour. But what kind of reply is, “I can’t turn a turd into gold”? I would not recommend this company based off of the work and the disrespect that came the moment I gave an honest critique.

Alumni Builders was an amazing company to work with on our home renovation. Dan was very professional and upfront with all costs, both expected and unexpected. He was thorough with our contract and allowed us to make changes along the way. He was in communication with us during the entire renovation and would let us know what the upcoming work would be as well as the name of who would be performing the work. We have a six month old at home and Dan was as accommodating as possible with his schedule & needs and understanding of my concerns (paint fumes, etc.) The quality of work was excellent and our basement has been transformed! I would absolutely recommend and rehire Alumni Builders for any future projects we might have.

I have been working with this team so far for about a week. They are refinishing our basement, which we had to demolish for permaseal to waterproof and install drain tile and a sump pump in the basement of our new home. They are very communicative. They are always there exactly the time they say they will be and give status reports on every step of the way. So far, the quality of the work has been amazing. They truly work to make sure you're happy and its quite clear in their communication that they wish to make their customers happy. My project isn't finished yet (and I will review again if it is) but I am thus far very satisfied, having previously used contractors who lollygagged and dragged out the job unnecessarily. Edit: Do not use these people. What was a great experience went sour VERY fast. I would give this place zero stars if I could. I hired them to frame my basement with drywall and demolish an old ceramic floor also to cut down my lot next door which was over grown. At first, everything was great. Matt seems responsive and courteous. I am not a construction expert, just a woman who is renovating a home for my family. They did a great job on my lot and a great job demolishing the floors. This is where the good ends. I paid separately for my materials (mostly because there is often materials left over and we have many projects going on around our house so they always come in handy and I like to know exactly where my money goes). I asked Matt plainly if he could leave any left over materials behind because they were mine. He lied and told me that the other materials were not mine and that they belonged to another customer and had been delivered to my house. (this was fishy to me at the time but I had no reason to believe that he was scamming us nor the knowledge to prove him wrong. I paid for: Dewalt 3 1/4 framing nails: 6,000 qty $129.00 Sheetrock 1/2" mold tough drywall 60 qty $577.20 Pro twist #6 1 5/8 Phillip's drywall screws 5,000 qty $57.00 Owns Corning pink fiberglass insulation 60 qty $627.00 Sound proof insulation 7 qty $601.40 2 x 4 96" 115 qty $917.70 X 1 $917.70 Liquid nail 10 qty $36.70 1 $36.70 Total for materials, I paid $3,240.60 with 10% sales tax. Obviously, they did not use 600 nails, 5000 screws. They did not leave these materials behind. They did not use all 60 of the insulation panels and did not even insulate every wall, they used 10 at the most according to our new contractors. They did not use 60 drywall panels- they used 35 at the most. They did not use 115 2X4 and did not even frame every wall. Generous estimate of new contractors? They used 90 at the most. It seems petty, but I paid outright for over 3200 dollars in materials and they straight up stole HALF of that, presumably to use on someone else's house. Some of the things they did wrong: Firstly- they covered almost all of the outlets for the west exterior and interior walls. My new contractor asked me to point out where I'd like my outlets to be and imagine my surprise when I realized the ones that were there had seemingly disappeared. Secondly- they did not use framing lumber under the windows nor near the stairs- resulting in the dry wall not being securely attached in those areas at all. You could touch the wall and it would bow in. Thirdly- for the base north exterior wall, they did not frame the floor with lumber so the drywall floats in the air and can be moved side to side. Lastly- the doorways that they framed for the bathroom/bedroom/closet area were supposed to be the same size and centered. They are not the same size and they are definitely not centered at all. I paid them 7000 for this. We also paid them to haul away some debris that previous contractors left behind. They hauled away most of it but left a BIG pile of it on the edge of my property, claiming that they had paid Republic to pick it up. It has been three weeks now and it is still sitting in the rain getting soggy and disgusting. I have reached out to the business about these problems and they have not been responsive at all, which is why I am posting this review. I paid them 500 for this. Very disappointing experience. We feel very taken advantage of by Matt and Modern Improvements. Unless you have the ability to micromanage and know everything about construction (which you likely do not if you're considering a contractor)- do not give these people your money unless it is for SMALL jobs that can be done in a day or two. In all, I paid them over 10k for a way less than satisfactory job on everything but the jobs that actually required construction. I am glad that I paid someone else to do the taping and mudding and they were able to bring these problems to my attention before Matt and his team could cover and paint them. It will be more expensive- but it will be done RIGHT. I will definitely be seeking legal recourse to recoup my funds and I am very disappointed in this business because I had such high hope.
