Estimates and Contracts

When getting your bids ask for the estimate to be itemized by the trade. This will help you compare the estimates evenly. If one company is higher for a specific area, ask them why.
Also make sure to ask how long the project will take. If a project is executed quickly it may be worth paying a little extra. Here are a few things to look for in a contract.


  • Certificate of Insurance
  • Calender Date
  • Timeline
  • Payment Schedule
  • Warranty or Guarantee
If you follow these steps it will make your basement finish a better experience. There are other things you should consider when preparing a budget. Almost all remodeling projects go over the original estimate. This is due to changes or additions that are typically requested by the homeowner. Find exactly what you want your project to end up looking like. This can reduce changes that are often made at the last minute. Click here to view images of finished basements.
