I Can’t Wait Until This Is Over

“What’s up buttercup?”

Lindsey looks up from her phone as Jerry plops next to her on the couch. “I’m looking at home remodeling pictures. There are some great ideas here. I think we should do an exterior home addition now while we’re stuck inside. Or save up for an interior one later.”

“That’s a great idea! Since we aren’t traveling or spending a lot of money this is perfect. Might as well spruce up our living space,” Jerry smiles.

“Yay, I’m so glad you agree! Now I really can’t wait until this is over. Want to look at these pictures with me? There might even be something that catches your eye.” Jerry nods and puts his arm around Lindsey so he can get comfy.

This is what the couple finds-

Exterior Remodeling Pictures

“Wow, these exterior home remodeling pictures are great! I would love to have any of them, really.”

This client remodeled their patio into a covered patio. Now they can relax outside, even eat meals together, without being in the sun all the time.

“That certainly would make relaxing by the pool more fun,” Jerry notes. “And so would this next house addition!”

Lindsey’s eyes widen. “Wow, they made that deck look so much better! Put an umbrella on it and add some outdoor lighting and you’ll have a great hangout spot. And you’re right, it would make our backyard pool way more fun.”

Lindsey scrolls down to the next set of home remodeling pictures.

Kitchen Remodeling Pictures

“This kitchen looks totally different now!”

“Yeah, it went from old-fashioned to modern in a BIG way. Are you sure it’s even the same kitchen?” Jerry jalf-jokes. “I don’t know,” Lindsey plays along, “it looks like a different home haha,” she laughs. “But, no, really, those white shaker style cabinets, black countertops, and subway tile backsplash look cool and contemporary.”

“We might need to save up and do a kitchen remodel. Here’s another one:”

“It practically went from breakfast nook to actual kitchen!” Jerry lowers his head closer to the screen. “I spy a mini-fridge (or keggerator), handles on the cabinets, and a lot more counter space.” It also looks like it jumped ahead a decade or two in style (because it did!)

“Let’s see if the bathroom remodeling pictures are just as good,” Lindsey says scrolling downward.

Bathroom Remodeling Pictures

“It looks so new and fancy!”

“But what if we took out the tub and made the shower huge! Maybe even have a place to sit down in there,” Jerry muses. “Look at you, coming up with great ideas. This next one we could do for our guest bathroom.”

“That hardwood-looking floor is really nice. We should get that look for the entire first floor. Or wait! Let’s put it in the basement instead.”

Basement Remodeling Pictures

“Now, finishing the basement looks like a really good idea.”

Jerry mimics a cave-man. “Make into man-cave!” Lindsey laughs. “Maybe, or it could be a place to entertain our guests. If anything we could have it be a place for the kids to go play.”

Which To Get?

“Base-chen. Kit-ment.” The couple looks at each other in surprise. “I think we should remodel the basement,” Jery says slowly. “But I think the basement would be better as we can use it for more things,” Lindsey replies.

They decide to break the tie by looking at kitchen remodeling ideas and basement finishing ideas.

5 Home Remodel Contractors Near Me In Mahopac New York

One Of These Home Remodelers Might Be The One For You

These 5 home remodel contractors near you in Mahopac can help make your vision a reality. You just might end up hiring one of them.

Find out who they are and a little bit about them in the post below-

There’s Just Too Many!

“This will take forever.”

James sits back with a heavy sigh. He and Lauren are starting to look for a home remodel contractor near them in Mahopac. The huge number of them is kind of scary. How are they supposed to find one contractor out of the hundreds around them?

“And there’s more when you zoom in! Then you realize these are only the businesses that have a Google account, so there are even more home remodelers near me,” James mutters in frustration. It’s just like when they were trying to find the cost of home renovations.

“Hon, I think I found something that can help,” Lauren bursts excitedly.

James goes over to see what she’s looking at on her phone. She has a post pulled up that has a 5 home remodeling contractors near them.

Here is the list she found-

5 Home Remodel Contractors In Mahopac, New York

Above And Beyond Contracting

Colgar Enterprises

First Class Remodeling Inc

Fratto Home Improvement and Repair LLC

Lopardo LLC

“What makes these remodelers worthy of being on this list?” James asks curiously.

Above And Beyond Contracting was started back in 1918 by the current owner’s grandfather. Since starting, they’ve been working to improve their systems and processes to be what they are today.

“So far this list of home remodel contractors is good,” Lauren says quietly.

Colgar Enterprises is owned and operated by Gary West. He and his son work on their client’s projects together in a professional manner worthy of being put on this list.

“Father son home remodeling contractor team, huh? Reminds me of when I would do home projects with my dad,” James says nostalgically.

First Class Remodeling Inc is privately owned and operated. John Boer, their head contractor, has been working in the area for a long time. They’re a home remodel contractor in Mahopac that specializes in kitchens and bathrooms.

Fratto Home Improvement and Repair LLC is a home remodel contractor company in Mahopac. They specialize in all types of home repair and say no job is too small for them! They no longer do jobs in Yonkers.

“I wonder why they don’t do jobs in Yonkers anymore?” Lauren wonders.

Lopardo LLC is a remodeling company based in Carmel Hamlet. Besides residential work they also take jobs in the commercial sphere. They are also a family owned and operated home remodel contracting business near Mahopac.

To The Victor Goes The Crown

“See, I like this list. It’s short, simple, and doesn’t take a lot of time to go through. Let’s take a look and see what we think of these home remodel contractors near us,” James suggests. Lauren likes the idea so the couple gets to work.

The Truth About How Much Home Renovations Cost In New York

The Real Answer Is It Depends On What You Want For Your Westchester, Dutchess, Or Putnam County Home

Finding an answer on how much do home renovations cost is impossible. You can find a national average, but it’s better to know what can cause it to change. Once you know that then it makes more sense why your renovation is getting the estimated prices it is.

You can find the main factors affecting home renovation costs in the post below.

National Averages Don’t Really Help

“What do you mean they don’t really help?”

Whitney looks at Debbie in confusion. The average for how much home renovations cost is an average for a reason. Whitney thinks if she renovates her whole home the price should fall somewhere in the national average range of $18,000 – $76,000.

“True, but we live in New York. Everything is more expensive here, especially if you compare it to places out in the middle of nowhere,” Debbie points out.

“Oh. You’ve got a good point there Debbie. So I guess the only way to know the cost of the home renovations I want is to contact a home renovator,” Whitney sighs in defeat. After seeing those kitchen remodeling ideas she’s been super excited about doing a renovation of her own. She was hoping to have some idea of the price before she contacted anyone.

“Don’t be so down, let’s not give up yet! I’m sure we can at least find out what factors change the cost of a home renovation,” Debbie says encouragingly. She whips out her phone to see what she can find on Google.

After searching for several minutes, here is what Debbie finds.

Factors Changing Home Renovation Costs

The rooms

Complexity of the renovation

Underlying problems

Chosen materials

“Wow, I can’t believe we actually found something,” Debbie says in surprise. “Don’t stop there, keep reading!” Whitney bursts out excitedly.

1. Rooms Are A Game Changer

“This is a good start.”

The number of rooms you’re trying to renovate will definitely have an impact on home renovation costs. The more there are the more manpower, labor, time, materials, everything there is.

“That makes perfect sense,” Whitney says with a nod.

Then the room itself changes the cost. Kitchens are the most expensive room to renovate, costing a national average of $25,000. Renovating a basement comes in at $20,000 and bathrooms at $10,000.

“Wow, that’s a good chunk of change right there,” Debbie says with a low whistle. They scroll down to the next factor affecting how much home renovations cost.

2. Home Renovation Costs Change Based On Complexity

“What exactly is meant by complexity?”

Complexity can mean how much is actually being renovated. Just updating one or two parts of a room will probably be less of an investment than updating the entire room. It does come down to what you’re renovating in the room and the materials you choose (we’ll get into that later on in this post).

“What you’re renovating sounds like another part of the complexity,” Whitney correctly guesses.

Cabinet renovation is usually the most expensive. They can take up the most space in a room, especially kitchens. Compare that to painting the walls or redoing the flooring and you’ll see what you’re renovating can change the cost of a home renovation.

“I might have to renovate my home in steps depending on the overall cost for what I want,” Whitney says thoughtfully.

Size matters as well. Small kitchens and bathrooms can cost less because they take fewer materials. Labor might increase simply because smaller areas are harder to work in. If you can only fit 1-2 people at a time it’ll take longer than if you had 3-5 people.

“I never thought about that part of a home renovation project,” Debbie realizes. They wonder if the next factor that can change how much a home renovation can cost will be as surprising.

3. Watch Out For Underlying Problems

“Underlying problems like what?”

You might not notice it. Heck, even the best contractor might not until they start renovating your home.

Problems can pop up at any point during a home project. Rotten wood can be hiding in plain sight, mold and mildew can be growing behind the walls, the wiring for electrical appliances may need updating, and many other problems could be present.

“And any problems should be fixed before continuing the project. Otherwise, they can cause worse problems later that I’ll need to spend more money to fix later,” Whitney notes.

They scroll down to the last factor affecting the cost of home renovations.

4. Chosen Materials

“If I had the money I would make almost everything marble.”

.fusion-gallery-1 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid #f6f6f6;}

Higher-end materials will raise the cost of a home renovation. Natural stone is going to be the more costly option as will anything you want custom-made. But it will look AMAZING.

“Looks like I’ve got a lot to consider when it comes to material choices,” Whitney muses. She’s feeling a lot more confident, enough that she’s ready to contact a home renovator.

The True Cost Of A Home Renovation In New York

“It seems like it mostly depends on how much you choose to renovate and what you choose to renovate with. It’ll also be different based on who you contact, but at least I’ll have a decent idea of why it costs what it does,” Whitney says confidently.

“Oh look, it says here the average cost of a home renovation in New York is between $21,000 – $90,000,” Debbie points out.

It Doesn’t Even Compare

“After seeing their bathroom I know ours needs updating just as badly.”

Holly sits down on the couch with a sigh. She and Mike just got home from their friend’s house who just fully remodeled their bathroom. It made her realize their bathroom is so out of date it might as well have dinosaurs in it.

“Well, we have the money and the time, why don’t we remodel our bathroom too?” Mike suggests helpfully.

“Really?!” Holly bolts up in surprise and disbelief. She thought she’d have to do a few weeks of subtle convincing to get him on board with a full bathroom remodel. “But I’d like to know what a full bathroom remodel means,” Mike says.

Holly pulls out her phone and looks up “how to remodel a bathroom” on Google. She can’t wait to get through this and contact a bathroom remodeler.

Remodeling Bathroom Floors

“I guess we’ll start at the bottom and work our way up.”

The overall best bathroom flooring has got to be ceramic or porcelain tile. It’s waterproof, durable, stain-resistant, easy to maintain, and not too expensive. You can also get it in almost any style or color including wood and stone.

“But tile is cold and hard to stand on,” Holly groans. “We can always put carpet over it or even get heated floors,” Mike points out. “True. Wait, you know how to install tiles right? We won’t need a contractor for this will we?!”

“Not doing it. It’s too much work for what I want to do,” Mike says firmly.

Besides ceramic and porcelain tiles you can also use natural stone which is beautiful, expensive, durable, and high maintenance. Then there’s engineered hardwood which can be installed over existing flooring. It is durable and water-resistant, but not waterproof. Other good choices are cork and luxury vinyl (make sure the manufacturer offers green choices that don’t emit VOCs).

“Let’s get the ceramic/porcelain option that looks like wood or stone, that sounds like fun,” Holly smiles. Mike agrees and they scroll down to the next step for how to remodel a bathroom.

How To Remodel Bathroom Cabinets/Vanities

“Yeah our cabinets need an upgrade, they don’t look good or have a lot of room.”

If you’re going to modernize your bathroom cabinets you’re going to have lots of fun with the choices. The overall style is becoming more minimalistic, which has sleek lines, less clutter, and a spa-like feel. Marble countertops are in (though they never went out of style). Wood vanities are also in, though mostly with reclaimed and unfinished wood.

“Oh, the wood look is really nice. It gives the bathroom an organic, natural feel, plus it would look great with more modern countertops and hardware.

You can also have the bottom of the vanity float, as in it doesn’t connect with the ground, or be an open storage area for towels and the like. This way you (nor anyone else) will have to go through drawers and closets looking for things.

“Open storage all the way. I like seeing where things are,” Mike says. “I agree! Let’s get the minimalist, spa-like style. It looks so clean and elegant!”

The couple scrolls down to the next part of how to remodel a bathroom.

Remodeling The Shower/Tub Area

“Whoa, these ideas are incredible!”

Open-concept bathrooms are becoming more popular with every bathroom remodel. Take the doors and curtains off of your shower and you have an open-concept bathroom. It feels different at first, almost weird, but after a couple uses it feels amazing. Your bathroom will feel larger, more open, and nobody will have to worry about slipping while climbing in or out of it.

“YES.” Holly just stares at the screen as her mouth tugs upwards into a big smile. Mikes not the biggest fan of this idea but he feels like he can get used to it.

The other styles for bathrooms are trending in 2 very different directions. It’s either a large shower without a tub or a large tub with a smaller shower. It all comes down to what you want and prefer.

“Looks like we already decided with the larger, open shower concept,” Mike notes. Holly smiles and hugs him before scrolling down to the final step for how to remodel a bathroom for 2020.

New Bathroom Walls For 2020

“Whoa, these ideas are incredible!”

You can always go for a new color or update your current one so it looks new and fresh. Darker colored walls with lighter vanities, showers, etc are becoming more popular. Pinks, whites, and blues are also popular paint colors for bathroom remodels.

“Not pink. If anything I’d like the darker walls with lighter other things,” Mike says. “Trust me, I wasn’t thinking about pink, it’s not my style,” Holly assures him.

Or you can go for an entirely new style like tile. Like with floors, there is a huge variety of styles and colors for wall tiles. Natural stone walls are also becoming more popular. This includes everything from magnificent marble to cool concrete.

“Marble would be amazing, but that would be our entire budget,” Mike half-jokes.

What Will Their New Bathroom Look Like?

“So far we have wood or stone looking ceramic/porcelain tiles with rugs on it, organic wood cabinets with open storage space, an open-concept shower with some sort of tile pattern, and darker wall paint.”

Now that the couple has some idea as to what they want they need to find a contractor who can make their vision a reality. The best place to start is on a contractor’s portfolio page.

How To Insulate Basement Walls Properly And Make It Livable

Save Money And Start Turning Your Westchester, Putnam, Or Dutchess County Basement Into A Livable Space

You can insulate your basement walls properly in 11 basic steps. Fair warning, you may have to frame your basement walls before adding insulation.

From choosing insulation to putting up a vapor barrier you can find out how to insulate basement walls right here.

It’s Like An Igloo Down Here

“Igloos are actually quite warm if you build them right.”

Matt rolls his eyes as Melissa corrects him. “Well, they’re still cold though, just warmer than the outside. Anyway, it’s cold down here and we can’t let it stay that way if we’re going to turn it into a living space.”

Matt knows they’re going to have to add insulation to the walls. “Guess we’re going to hire a basement finishing contractor,” Melissa sighs, pulling out her phone.

“Whoa, what? C’mon, I can add insulation to the walls! It can’t be that hard,” Matt protests.

“Let’s find out then. Here, I’m going to look up how to insulate basement walls properly and, based on that, we can decide whether you can DIY it or if we need to hire a pro,” Melissa counteroffers. Matt grumbles an agreement as Melissa starts searching Google.

Here are the 11 basic steps to insulating basement walls that Melissa finds.

How To Insulate Basement Walls Properly In 11 Steps

Choose the level of insulation (R-value)

Attach interlocking rigid foam styrofoam to wall

Seal joints

Frame walls with pressure-treated lumber

Run electrical, plumbing, etc

Cut insulation .25 inches lower than your ceiling

Apply adhesive to the wall

Stick insulation to it

Seal seams with duct tape

Seal gaps between ceiling and floor with caulk or foam filler

Put up a vapor barrier

“See? I can totally do this, it just looks like a lot because there are 11 steps,” Matt points out. “Mmmmm, I’m still not convinced yet. Having it laid out like this makes it look easy-ish, but it might not be,” Melissa fires back.

She scrolls down to see more details for insulating basement walls.

Steps 1-5

R-value tells you how well insulation works to keep heat where it is. The higher the R-value the better it will perform and for New York, this number is quite high: R13 – R15.

The styrofoam helps seal against air and some moisture, though you’ll want to seal your basement against moisture before doing any of this (you can learn how right now). Sealing the joints between the styrofoam boards helps them be more airtight.

The framing is necessary because the type of insulation most contractors use needs a wall covering it. This way it meets building and fire codes. “Yep, and we need to use pressure-treated lumber so it lasts longer,” Matt chimes in.

If you want a comfier basement then you’ll want the essentials: electricity and plumbing.

Melissa looks at Matt, who seems to be losing confidence a bit. She keeps scrolling to see the rest of the steps on how to insulate basement walls.

Steps 6-11

Cutting the insulation makes sure it fits. Don’t worry, one of the following steps helps fill in the gaps so you’re not improperly insulating.

As for applying the insulation to the walls, it’s the glue-and-stick method. Put the glue on the wall and stick the insulation to it. Then, seal the seams between the insulation with duct tape and the floor/ceiling gaps with caulk or foam filler.

“Then we put in the vapor barrier,” Matt says excitedly.

The vapor barrier keeps moisture away from the insulation so it doesn’t rot or mold.

Will Matt DIY Or Will They Hire Someone?

“What do you think Matt?” Melissa asks. Matt frowns and rubs his chin thoughtfully for a minute. “I think I can do it myself,” he says slowly, “but it would take a lot more time and energy than I want to put in. We can afford to hire someone, so let’s go that route.”

Now the couple is one step closer to finishing their basement. After the drywall is up, Matt just may learn the rest of the steps on how to finish a basement.

How To Waterproof A Basement So You Can Upgrade It

Waterproof Your Westchester, Dutchess, Or Putnam County Basement So You Can Enjoy It

You can turn your basement into an actual living space! The best place to start is learning how to waterproof a basement so it won’t get damaged. After that, you can start finishing it into whatever kind of room you want, whether it’s a man cave, kid cave, or guest area.

Here are the basic steps you can follow to waterproof your basement.

It Has To Happen Before It’s Too Late

“Ok, this is really not good,” Sharon says worriedly.

She can see the water stains spreading all over the walls of their basement. It’s unsightly, not good for their walls, and it’s getting in the way of her plans to finish their basement.

At least she has a few ideas of what’s causing it and she can probably fix that on her own or have her husband help her. It’s keeping it from happening again that’ll be the main problem. If she can fix that then she can learn how to finish a basement.

She sighs heavily, pulls out her phone, and searches ‘how to waterproof a basement’ on Google.

Here is what she finds.

How To Waterproof A Basement In 4 Basic Steps

Remove any paints, adhesives, etc from your basement walls and/or floor

Clean the walls and floor

Make any repairs and seal them

Waterproof your basement with an appropriate waterproofing sealer (like concrete sealer for concrete)

“There really aren’t that many steps, huh,” Sharon thinks to herself in surprise. Then she realizes that this is only for waterproofing the interior of a basement.

The process for how to waterproof a basement exterior takes a lot more work and money. You have to dig to the foundation using bigger machines, make repairs, apply a sealant, and then fill it back in.

So to completely waterproof a basement you’ll need to work on the outside and the inside.

Sharon will need to think on this for a while and talk to her husband about it because it won’t be cheap. She may have to do it in sections, first the outside then the inside.

But the sealant should last a lifetime so it might be worth the cost, especially considering the fact that a finished basement will be amazing:

.fusion-gallery-1 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid #f6f6f6;}

Sharon considers what she wants from her basement. When (not if) she finishes it she’ll use it until she sells the house and even then it’ll help increase the overall selling price.

Sharon decides to contact a contractor to get an estimate so she can start moving forward with her plan.

A Few Months Later

Sharon walks into her finished basement with a smile on her face. It took a lot of time and money but seeing and using her basement makes it worth it. It’s great for get-togethers, having guests stay over, and being a great place to unwind.

She sure is glad she found those 3 ideas for finishing a basement.

Deck Restoration Project: Make Your Home Look As Good As This

Clients Bring Us In To Restore And Update Their Deck In New York State

You can see just how big of a difference a deck restoration project can have on the look of your house. Many people don’t realize just how out of date or worn their decks are until it’s too late. Then you can’t stop seeing everything that’s wrong with it. When it gets to that point (or hopefully before it does) you can restore it and make your deck look amazing again, just like with this project.

Let’s Grill Out On Our Deck…nevermind

“I’m inviting the Smith’s over for a grill out on our deck tonight, ok?”

Ricky nods absently at Lucy’s question until he remembers. “Wait, no, Lucy, don’t!” Lucy looks up from her phone in surprise, finger hovering over the call button.

“Why not?” Ricky takes her hand and walks her out to the deck. “Look at our deck and tell me what you see.” Lucy looks from him to the deck to him and back again, looking closely to see what he’s talking about.

That’s when she sees it:

“Wow, when did our deck fall into disrepair like this?!” Lucy says in surprise. Ricky nods in agreement. They don’t want to have anyone on their deck with it looking like this. Ricky pulls out his phone and starts looking for a home addition contractor to do their deck restoration project.

Deck Restoration Project

The couple finds a few contractors who might be able to help them.

They do the usual rounds: filling out contact forms, making phone calls, etc. In the end, the couple ends up hiring Fisher Building Co. to restore their deck and add a little bit more to it. Fisher’s team comes through on the agreed-upon date and gets to work. A few days later:

Ricky and Lucy love their “new” deck. The new latticework around the bottom looks great and will keep animals from crawling around down there. It’s a bright and shiny new white, the railing has a more modern look, and BONUS: their screened-in porch is now a sunroom!

“I can hardly believe how different and just better our deck looks now,” Ricky says happily. Check out the transformation:

When Was The Last Time You Did A Deck Check?

Decks like Ricky and Lucy’s can fall into disrepair quickly because they’re out in the elements. You can take a look at your deck right now and see if it needs some restoration work too.

If it does, you can do the same thing as Ricky and Lucy and contact Fisher Building Co.

Real Bathroom Remodels Done In Southeast New York

Take‌ ‌A‌ ‌Look‌ ‌At‌ ‌These‌ ‌Bathroom‌ ‌Remodels‌ ‌Clients‌ ‌Had‌ ‌Us‌ ‌Do‌ ‌In‌ ‌Westchester,‌ ‌Putnam,‌ ‌And‌ ‌Dutchess‌ ‌ Counties

These full or partial bathroom remodels are real projects clients had us do for their homes. They contacted us and had us do a design based on their wants and needs.

Small Bathroom Remodel

Kathy sighs as she stands in the doorway of her bathroom. Their bathroom has seen better days.

She realizes she doesn’t want to use this bathroom anymore, nor does she want anyone else to. Kathy has had it.

It’s time for a remodel.

Kathy does her research, comes up with some ideas for bathroom remodels, and then finds a contractor who can bring her vision to life.

She calls up this contractor and talks to them about her project over the phone. They decide to set up an on-site consultation so the contractor can come up with a more accurate price. While there he also comes up with a great remodel design.

Kathy and he work out an agreement and he and his team remodel her small bathroom.

When she sees the work they’ve done she can hardly believe it’s actually her old bathroom.

Kathy is happy because now she looks forward to being able to use her new bathroom. It’s beautiful, modern, and the natural light filtering through the cloudy glass makes the whole bathroom lighter.

Medium Bathroom Remodel

“Our bathroom screams ‘old-fashioned’ in a high-pitched voice,” Jessica points out.

Roger stops to actually take a look at their bathroom and realizes that she’s right. It looks like it came straight out of a 20-year old magazine:

He looks at Jessica, asking “We’re finding a remodeler and getting it updated, right?” She nods firmly and pulls out her phone to start asking around for remodeler recommendations.

The couple eventually finds a contractor who they think can do the job right. They bring them in for a consultation, getting a design and a more accurate price range in the process. After talking about their options, Roger and Jessica decide to hire them to remodel their bathroom.

When they see the results they are stunned:

They have more counter, more storage, and nicer floors. It fit right in with their current budget and they can still do more when they decide they want to.

Large Bathroom Remodel

“Honestly, I’m a little nervous but mostly excited to see how it turned out.”

Robin’s about to see her newly remodeled bathroom for the first time. Based on the design she knows what it should look like (gorgeous) but taking things from paper and making them real doesn’t always work out great.

She lays her hand on the bathroom door handle, takes a deep breath, and opens the door…

Robin’s hand leaps to her mouth as it drops open a little. It’s just like the design she and the contractor drew up. To her it’s like she opened the doorway to a little bit of heaven and it’s in her own home.

This is luxury.

You Can Too!

You could have a story similar to one of these here, with just as happy of an ending. You can use our bathroom remodeling service to create your dream bathroom, one you want to show people when they come over.

How To Finish A Basement In 9 Basic Steps

Turn Your “Storage Space” Into Your New Favorite Room In Your Westchester, Putnam, Or Dutchess County Home

Finishing a basement isn’t an easy task. It takes a lot of patience, time, and money, even if you’re doing it yourself. In all honesty, we would only recommend doing it if you’re an advanced DIYer or have previous experience with building homes or additions. We have managed to boil the process down to 7 basic steps for those of you curious (and experienced) enough to try it on your own.

We Can Use It For So Many Things!

“We can host more people, the kids can have their own space, it’ll be like a little escape!”

Cameron is currently doing his best to convince Skyler that they need to finish their basement. Personally, he wants to turn it into a man-cave but at this point he’s willing to compromise.

Skyler isn’t too sure about it but for Cameron… “Alright, let’s finish the basement. I’m sure we’re going to love it a lot and use it quite often.” Cameron smiles with excitement and gives Skyler a big hug. He’s also happy because he can bring out his tool kit and finish the basement with his own hands.

Being an expert DIYer is his thing and this is the perfect chance to test his skills. He gets out his phone and looks up “how to finish a basement” on Google. If it turns out he can’t do it he’ll hire a professional instead.

Here is what he finds.

How To Finish A Basement In 9 Basic Steps

Clean your basement out

Check your basement for leaks and damages

Waterproof and repair anything that needs it

Research and get any building permits and codes

Do any electrical, plumbing, and HVAC work

Finish the basement walls with insulation, framing, and drywalling

Add flooring

Install a ceiling

Finishing details

Clean your basement out

Check your basement for leaks and damages

Waterproof and repair anything that needs it

Research and get any building permits and codes

Do any electrical, plumbing, and HVAC work

Finish the basement walls with insulation, framing, and drywalling

Add flooring

Install a ceiling

Finishing details

Cleaning the basement gives everything a good foundation and is a great way to check it out for any potential leaky areas and damages. Anything you find needs waterproofing and fixing before you move on.

Now for the more boring part- researching and getting any building codes and permits. It’s not fun but it is a necessary step for how to finish a basement.

After that, the fun begins!

Well, that is if you consider doing electrical, plumbing, and HVAC work fun. After you have that all finished up you can start making your basement look more like a home addition.

Finishing The Basement Walls

Add insulation by cutting it .25 inches lower than your ceiling to allow some room for easier installation. Safety goggles should be worn if you use a saw or utility knife to cut it.

After making sure it’s the right height, apply an adhesive to the wall and stick the insulation against it. Once all of it is installed, seal the seams between each piece with duct tape and seal the gaps between the ceiling, floor, and corners with caulk or foam filler.

As for framing and installing drywall, it’s best left to a professional. This part of the project needs an experienced hand (a few, actually) and a lot of tools.

Once finished you can move to the flooring.

Installing Flooring

Vinyl, tile, and carpet are popular choices for flooring.

For cement floors, waterproof vinyl flooring is the best choice because it’s durable and comes in many different styles, including a wood look.

Once you decide on the flooring you can install the subfloor. Install insulation the same way you did the walls and lay sheets of plywood on top of that. Use a masonry drill and concrete screws to hold it in place.

After that, you’ll want to follow the instructions for the type of flooring you chose to finish your basement with.

Finally, the basement ceiling.

Finishing The Ceiling

You can choose between a drop-ceiling and a drywall ceiling.

Drop-ceilings are cheaper and easier which is why they’re commonly found in homes. They’re the ceilings that are made of squares or rectangles and you can lift them up by pushing them. You can simply follow the instructions that come with the installation kit you choose.

Drywall ceilings are a lot more complicated to install but at least the process is similar to finishing the basement walls.

Finishing Details

This is where painting the walls, bringing in furniture and appliances, and hooking everything up happens.

After that’s all done Cameron (and you) should have a great new addition to his home!

What Will Cameron Do?

Cameron rubs his chin thoughtfully as he thinks about whether he should do this himself or look for a professional basement finishing service. He decides to do everything himself except set up the drywall. Now he just needs to plan out how it’s going to look…

The Kitchen Just Isn’t Right Anymore

Luke knows what it means when Leia looks like this.

She’s crossing her arms and tapping her foot with a look of deep concentration on her face. Not only that but she’s been doing it in the kitchen for the past 10 minutes. It can only mean one thing: she’s remodeling the kitchen in her mind.

As she turns around to look at some other part of the kitchen she finally notices Luke standing there. “Honey,” she begins, “the kitchen just isn’t…right, anymore. It looks outdated, especially when you compare it to our friends’ kitchens. We need to remodel it, or at least one or two areas.”

Luke knows they’ll end up having to contact this contractor they use whenever they want work on their house done. But hey, as long as Leia’s happy, he’s happy. “What do you think needs to be done, hon,” he rhymes.

Luke knows what it means when Leia looks like this.

Luke knows they’ll end up having to call this contractor they use whenever they want work on their house done. But hey, as long as Leia’s happy, he’s happy. “What do you think needs to be done, hon,” he rhymes.

1. Remodeling The Kitchen Cabinets

“The one area we’re definitely remodeling in the kitchen is the cabinets,” Leia begins.

Your kitchen cabinets take up the most room, as they do for almost every kitchen (can you imagine one where they don’t?) This means they are the first part people see and what they see the most.

As far as remodeling goes, you can paint them a different color:

.fusion-gallery-1 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid #f6f6f6;}

Or completely change the style and look:

.fusion-gallery-2 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid #f6f6f6;}

New cabinets can transform the look of a kitchen by themselves, which is why Leia is so deadset on remodeling the kitchen cabinets. Luke agrees with this, but he wants to know what else Leia would do to their kitchen.

2. Installing New Flooring

“We definitely need to install new flooring as part of this kitchen remodel.”

The flooring also takes up a lot of space in the kitchen plus it’s what you’ll be standing on when cooking or socializing. “Socializing?” Luke says questioningly.

“Yes, kitchens are becoming one of the places to gather in the house. For the family, it’s where the food is so people tend to meet up there quite often and friends like to hang out with the chef.” Luke had no idea kitchens were so popular, which is why he lets Leia handle the home remodeling ideas and such.

.fusion-gallery-3 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid #f6f6f6;}

Porcelain tiles and hardwood flooring are popular choices for kitchens. They’re not the most expensive product, they can last for a long time, and they never go out of style.

“Well after that we’ve basically got ourselves a brand new kitchen,” Luke says cheerily. “But we aren’t finished yet,” Leia replies.

3. Painting The Ceiling And Walls To Remodel A Kitchen

“Changing the colors of the walls and ceilings, or at least refreshing them, would be a nice change too.”

.fusion-gallery-4 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid #f6f6f6;}

Walls and especially ceilings need a type of paint that can stand up to heat and moisture, otherwise it’ll fade and crack more quickly. Whites, grays, and blues are popular kitchen colors in this area.

But the one walled part of a kitchen that needs something different than a paint job is the backsplash.

4. Updating The Backsplash

“What makes the kitchen backsplash so important?” Luke asks.

The backsplash needs to match with the cabinets and the counters or the whole look of the kitchen can be thrown off. It also needs to be easy to clean and hard to damage as a lot of steam and food can get on them.

Though it may not be the biggest part of the kitchen it certainly helps bridge the gap between the cabinets and the counters:

.fusion-gallery-5 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid #f6f6f6;}

Leia has seen a few kitchen backsplash ideas but she knows there’s more options than just those. But she wants the next kitchen remodeling idea more than a new backsplash.

5. Remodel A Kitchen By Putting In An Island

“Putting in a kitchen island would make everything better,” Leia says dreamily. “Why?”

.fusion-gallery-6 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid #f6f6f6;}

Kitchen islands provide more counter space. You can use it for:

Preparing food on

Extra space for people to eat

Buffet-style meals

Watching the kids do homework while you cook

A place to gather around

Overall it’s a kitchen addition that brings many additional benefits with it. “The same thing can be said with the other main way to remodel a kitchen,” Leia finishes. “Just one more way?” Luke asks. “That and I guess a half remodel idea,” she finishes.

6. Recessed Lighting Changes How You See

“The one thing you really want in your kitchen is to be able to see,” Leia says mysteriously.

Recessed lights in the ceiling can provide an even amount of light across the kitchen. This makes it stand out more and helps you see while cooking. The same goes for hanging lights and lights underneath the cabinets:

.fusion-gallery-7 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid #f6f6f6;}

Being able to see the food and what you’re putting in it can help it to turn out better. You don’t want to accidentally oversalt something or serve something undercooked because you couldn’t see well enough!

“Yeah but you already cook so well,” Luke says smoothly. Leia smiles and gives him a little shrug. “I can make even better food if we do the half remodel that I want,” she replies.

6.5 New Appliances Are Always Nice

“Brand new appliances will step up my cooking game!”

.fusion-gallery-8 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid #f6f6f6;}

“Well I can see why you only call it a half when it comes to a kitchen remodel,” Luke says. “New appliances are better at cooking food and can do even more than older models. It’s not really a remodel, more like an addition, but that’s why it’s only a half.”

Where Will Start With Your Kitchen Remodel?

“So, how many of your ideas are we actually going to do?” Luke questions. Leia says that they can start with the cabinets and go from there depending on their budget and the total cost. The first thing they need to do is plan out the budget and find some kitchen remodeling ideas.

How To Prepare A Room For Painting For Less Mess To Clean

Prepare Your Room So Paint Doesn’t Get Where It Shouldn’t In Your Westchester, Dutchess, Or Putnam County Home

You can prepare a room for painting in 7 steps. It involves moving anything you can out of the room. Anything you can’t you can put in the middle and cover. Take everything off the walls including outlet and light switch covers. If painting the ceiling, remove fans and lights. Then vacuum and put down drop cloths.

Skip to the process!

Remember What Happened Last Time…

“After what happened last time we aren’t skipping any steps,” Charlotte says firmly.

Pete simply nods his head in agreement and a little embarrassment. He might be able to fly fighter jets with the best of them but home improvement projects were never his thing.

Last time he tried painting a room he spent more time cleaning up after than he did painting. There was paint in the carpet, on the light switch covers, and all over his clothes. There was also a bunch of dust left after sanding that needed vacuuming.

It was a mess.Things would’ve been different had they decided to hire a professional but nooo Pete had to try it himself. That’s why this time Charlotte made him look up how to prepare a room for painting.

7 Steps To Preparing A Room For Painting

Move smaller items out of the room

Move larger items to the center or out of the room

Take down anything on walls or over windows

Remove outlet and light switch covers

If painting a ceiling, remove any fans and light fixtures

Vacuum

Put down drop cloths

After these 7 steps, you’ll start preparing the walls for painting.

Basically, the room you are going to paint should be as empty as possible. If you can’t move out larger objects then pile them in the center and cover them with a tarp or drop cloth. Don’t forget to remove blinds or curtains (they don’t look great with paint on them).

Making It A Little Bit Easier

Pete and Charlotte follow these steps on how to prepare a room for painting so they’ll have an easier time cleaning afterward. They won’t be scrubbing paint out of the carpet, scraping it off anything, or having to do extra work.

They’ll be back to enjoying their newly painted room in no time at all.

We’d love to hear how these steps worked for you in the comments below!

A Fresh, More Family-Friendly Kitchen

“The Johnson’s new kitchen is really nice,” Danielle suddenly says.

David has to agree, mostly because that was what the Johnson’s talked about for a good part of the night. The soft-close cabinets, the granite countertops, the new cabinets with their new paint, and so on.

They both agree they love the kitchen island because it has more counter space. This means they can help the kids with homework while making dinner, have more space for food prep, or even eat breakfast there together. Danielle finally mentions what’s been on both of their minds: remodeling their own kitchen.

David thinks about it for a minute before agreeing. It’s been a while since they last did anything with their kitchen and now feels like the right time to do it. If it means more chances to be a family then he is in. Plus a fresh-feeling kitchen is nice too.

But first, they need to find some ideas. They get on the Internet and start searching for kitchen remodeling ideas near them (so they can see real remodeling ideas in their area).

1. Kitchen Backsplashes

The first kitchen remodeling idea they run across is refacing their kitchen backsplash. Some of their favorite kitchen backsplash ideas are:

.fusion-gallery-1 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid #f6f6f6;}

“These are so much better than our current one,” David comments. Their current one is just a bunch of little white squares that could use at least a new coat of paint.

But it’s this last one that really catches their eye:

They both really like the white tile look for their kitchen and the green diamonds help break it up so it isn’t as uniform. It would work better for them without the wood cabinet look, which is why they decide to explore kitchen cabinets next.

2. Painting Your Kitchen Cabinets

Out of all the kitchen remodeling ideas anyone can find this one has the most impact:

.fusion-gallery-2 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid #f6f6f6;}

“Wow, white or black would make a huge difference in the look of our wood stained cabinets,” Danielle gasps in amazement. It would certainly give their kitchen a more modern feel.

They like this next look the most because it would work wonderfully with the green diamond backsplash they both like:

The black cabinets on the bottom blend nicely with the green cabinets on top. They’d also contrast nicely with the white tiles for the backsplash.

But as far as kitchen remodeling ideas go, the next one they find could be the most helpful.

3. Kitchen Islands

Practical for spending time together as a family and for making meals, kitchen islands could be exactly what David and Danielle want.

Kids can use the island to do homework and study on (though we all know it’s more for making sure they’re actually doing it).

It’s also great for socializing around. People can sit at it like a counter or use it to hold their drink or plate while they stand around and talk.

Let’s not forget that sometimes you just need more room when you cook. This kitchen remodeling idea can give you that and so much more.

“But what about all the free space it’ll take up in the kitchen?” David argues.

Danielle brings up the point that it would just be empty space anyway. Sure you have to go a few more steps to get around it but with all the benefits it can bring this small downside doesn’t hurt anything.

“But what about all the free space it’ll take up in the kitchen?” David argues.

They still move on to find one more idea that’s great for looks and cooking: recessed lighting.

4. Recessed Lighting For A Better View

“This would make cooking so much easier because we could see everything with less shadow,” Danielle points out:

“The hanging lights are nice too because it provides more direct light on the island,” David points out. Better, more even lighting makes it easier to see how well food is cooked and what it actually looks like. It also makes reading recipes or textbooks easier on the eyes.

Which Kitchen Remodeling Ideas Would You Choose?

Danielle and David are going to eventually do all of these ideas, but they have to figure out where they want to start. They decide on the kitchen island because it’s the most useful for them.

We would love to know which of these kitchen remodeling ideas (or one of your own) you want or have had for your kitchen remodel.

Covered Patio Project: Will It Make You Want One Too?

Creating Covered Outdoor Areas For Clients In Putnam, Westchester, And Dutchess Counties

If you’re tired of not being able to use your outdoor dining area properly then you are in the right place. Our clients Christine and Jim brought us in to build a covered patio, i.e. a veranda, in their backyard. They’ll have an outdoor dining area they can use during the middle of the day or even when it’s raining. Come see how it turns out (just watch out for tornados).

The 1st Step Is A Phone Call

Christine smiles as she dials the number at the top of the web page.

She’s about to start another home project and she knows just who to call. Seeing her friend’s covered patio and experiencing it made her want one for their backyard. After convincing her husband they should get one she knows what she needs to do: call a contractor.

But Christine doesn’t need to search for a new contractor to call. Several projects ago, after being burned by a bad contractor who left her with many problems and headaches, she was referred to a real professional by a friend. They’ve done several of Christine’s past projects very well and she is always happy with the outcome.

Suddenly a voice replaces the constant ringing with “Thank you for calling Fisher Building Co. this is Ian Fisher, how may I help you?”

Well, well, well, if it isn’t the owner of Fisher Building Co. himself. Christine glides through the consultation process as she’s done so many times before. She talks about her project, asking and answering questions so the team can have a clear picture of what she wants. Then, after setting up a time for an at-home consultation, all she has to do is wait…

Then Comes The At-Home Consultation

The day of the consultation arrives and the estimator shows up right on time, which at this point is no surprise to Christine or her husband.

They all go into the backyard and take a look at where she wants her covered patio to be. This is also the beginning of the design stage. Christine shows them pictures of projects she found online to give them some ideas.

The couple and the estimator start with a budget range so they can build a design off of that. The design, materials, and other parts of the project came after.

Once there is a clear picture of what the client wants the paperwork is drawn up and the couple fills it out. Then Christine sends in the deposit, Fisher Building Co. puts her on the schedule, and the project begins!

The couple and the estimator start with a budget range so they can build a design off of that. The design, materials, and other parts of the project came after.

Finally Building A Covered Patio In Putnam County

The 1st day of the build comes around and project manager Ralph Baldassarri shows up right on time.

He and his crew get everything set up and start building Christine’s covered patio, turning her vision into a reality. The process started out very smoothly too:

.fusion-gallery-1 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid rgba(246,246,246,0);}

Christine’s project is going completely stress-free, which is how we all knew it was too good to be true. The materials are easily found, the construction process is going smoothly, and the tornado is only a few… A TORNADO?!

Yup, a tornado.

It came through Carmel in Putnam County, damaging homes and leaving many without power (all who went through this are in our thoughts and prayers).

As for Christine’s project it set us back by about 1 week. But besides that her project is going smooth as silk.

Christine’s Covered Patio

Finally, it is complete.

Christine and Jim are hurriedly walking through their house towards the backyard. They can’t wait to see the design they created actually be in their backyard. They walk out back to see this:

.fusion-gallery-3 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid #f6f6f6;}

Everyone LOVES it, Christine, Jim, Ian, and the entire Fisher Building Co. crew that helped install it.

The ceiling is tongue and groove wood with a stain and marine-grade poly. It has a ceiling fan and recessed lighting providing an even coverage of light.

Christine and Jim now spend much of their time enjoying their covered patio, whether it be for relaxing outside or enjoying a wonderful meal with family and friends.

3 Ideas For Finishing A Basement That Can Add Home Value

You Can Add Monetary And Emotional Value To Your Westchester, Putnam, Or Dutchess County Home

These 3 ideas for finishing a basement come from basements clients have had us finish for them. They are 3 different basements, each with their own unique look (though not each of them is fully furnished). Let’s see these finished basement ideas along with Chris and Jess.

While the projects are real, the characters are fictionalized for this story and aren’t meant to represent any real person(s).

A Finished Basement Man Cave For A…

“Let’s make a deal then,” Chris offers.

“What kind of deal,” Jess (his wife) replies cautiously. “He’s been watching too much of that ‘Deal Or No Deal’ show,” she thinks. “It’s a deal where we can both get something we want,” Chris replies, raising Jess’ curiosity.

“I’m listening,” she says, raising an eyebrow. “A basement man cave for a kitchen remodel.” Jess stands there in silence, as though waiting for more. Chris finally breaks the silence, “Well, thoughts on finishing our basement?” “A full kitchen remodel?” she finally asks. “How about we spend the same amount for each, my ideas for finishing a basement and your ideas for a kitchen remodel?” Chris replies.

As soon as Jess starts twisting her hair around her finger Chris knows he’s won. “She only does that when she’s seriously considering something, and that means it’s worth considering,” he thinks happily, though nervously. It could go the other way just as easily.

“Deal. Let’s do it hon!” Jess says with a small smile. “YES!” Chris says with a small fist pump. “I’ve already got some ideas to show you.”

1. The Home Theater Idea For The Finished Basement

“The main attraction here: the home theater system,” Chris begins.

“This is one of your big ideas for finishing a basement?” Jess asks, not impressed. “It looks empty right now, but it’ll have a projector between those two speakers near the ceiling and the screen will take up most of the wall. A fireplace can be there too to make it seem more gentlemanly.”

“Ok, not bad I guess. It’ll make you feel more in the action when you’re watching football with the boys,” Jess replies, nodding her head.

“Now for my next big idea,” Chris continues excitedly.

2. A Fully Stocked Bar With Storage

“What’s football without a couple of cold ones, am I right?”

“I suppose so,” Jess agrees. “Well, this bar here can hold beer or cider or even wine in the wine rack. We’ll also be able to put food and stuff in the cabinets. Don’t worry about cleaning either, I’ll make sure one of the cabinets has supplies for quickly cleaning spills and stains,” Chris says.

“Wine? Hmm, now you’ve got me interested in visiting your man cave,” Jess jokes. “But really, if we put the wine down there then I’m definitely using the basement for a girls night,” she thinks.

“What’s football without a couple of cold ones, am I right?”

“I knew you’d like that,” Chris beams. “Now for my final idea, one of the most important parts: the flooring.”

3. Wood Flooring Or Carpeting?

“Is this really one of your ideas for finishing a basement?” Jess asks doubtfully.

.fusion-gallery-1 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid #f6f6f6;}

“I believe it’s important to think about what your feet are going to be touching for long amounts of time. You can be comfortable on carpeting with bare feet or socks, but then you have to worry about stains and such. Hardwood, on the other hand, may not be as comfortable but it is much easier to maintain.

“Plus, there’ll be recessed lights in the ceiling so the lighting will be even and won’t have down from the ceiling or anything.”

“You’ve really thought this through, haven’t you?” Jess praises.

“I have indeed,” Chris replies. “It’s my favorite of the 5 home addition ideas I looked through.”

“Well,” Jess begins, “Let’s sit down, figure out a budget, and then see what we ideas for finishing a basement we can work in for your man cave.” The couple sits down and does just that, though Jess starts to plan a kitchen remodel at the same time.

Preparing A Wall For Painting: 7 Steps To A Better Looking Finish

Help The Paint Last Longer And Look Better For Your Home In Westchester, Putnam, Or Duchess County

Preparing a wall for painting helps the paint stick to the wall better, meaning it’ll last longer and look better. It involves 7 steps: moving objects off of and away from the walls, putting down drop cloths & applying painter’s tape, repairing any damages, identifying the wall paint type, cleaning the wall with TSP, rinsing with water, and then priming if necessary.

Let’s follow Tony as he preps his walls for painting.

“Aaannnddd that’s the last of it,” Tony grunts as he gives the couch one last push.

The couch, chairs, and other bits of furniture are now all in the middle of the room, away from the walls. He wipes the film of sweat building on his forehead as he catches his breath.

“Alright, now where’s that steps list for preparing a wall for painting…ah, here it is.”

Preparing A Wall For Painting In 7 Steps

Move objects off of and away from the walls

Lay down drop cloths and apply painter’s tape

Repair any damages to the wall

Identify the type of paint on your wall (oil or latex)

Clean the wall with a damp rag, dipped in a mixture of water and TSP, and a vacuum

Rinse with water and let dry

Prime if walls are bare drywall, have stained or repaired area, is painted with a high gloss finish, or if you’re doing a drastic color change

“Furniture is away from the walls, pictures are taken down, screws are out too, so that’s it for step 1,” Tony says, crossing off step 1 with his pen.

“…drop cloths…painter’s tape…” he mutters under his breath. “At least I’m still in the easier stages in preparing a wall for painting,” he thinks to himself. Tony grabs some drop cloths and lays them right at the base of the walls. He then takes painter’s tape and tapes off the trim, door frames, and window frames. “Less mess means less cleaning,” he says aloud, remembering what his mother always used to say.

Now he’s about to start messing with the actual walls.

Prepping The Actual Walls

“There are a couple of dings and marks on the wall I’ll need to repair,” Tony groans.

“Those kids, running into things, knocking them over, not taking care of our stuff,” he complains inwardly. He gets out his tools and some spackle and makes the wall repairs.

“Now I need to identify the type of wall paint? How’s that a step in preparing a wall for painting?”

Well, you need to make slightly different surface preparations if you have an oil or latex painted wall. Wet a cotton swab with alcohol and rub it gently on the paint. If it comes off then it’s latex and if it doesn’t then it’s oil. If it’s oil paint, lightly sand the surface and apply bonding primer on it so the new paint sticks to it better.

“Whelp looks like this’s latex paint,” Tony says happily. “Means less work for me,” he thinks as he washes the walls with a water and TSP (trisodium phosphate) mixture. He also uses a hose vacuum to clean the trim.

Tony finishes the wall cleaning with a rinse of warm water and then lets it dry.

“Now, do I have to prime it?” Tony says to himself. “Yep,” says a loud voice behind Tony, making him jump in surprise. It’s his best friend who also happens to be a house painter. “Looks like you finally patched up those dings in the wall and your wife is asking for a pretty big color change, so you’ll definitely want to prime first,” his friend finishes.

“Well don’t just stand there smiling at me, grab a brush and a bucket and let’s knock this out before the game starts,” Tony says in irritation. “We only have a few hours, so let’s go.” They both grab their tools and start priming the walls in preparation for painting them.

Home Addition Ideas: 5 Real Projects People Did Near You

These 5 home addition ideas are real projects people in the Westchester and Mahopac areas of New York had us do for them.

They include a master suite balcony, detached garage, porch or patio, deck, and finishing the basement. Not only are they adding monetary value to their homes, but they’re also adding emotional value.

After you see how they turned out you might want one of them for your own home (keep reading to find out) .

“But it will make our house feel more like a home,” Melissa argues.

She and Joey have been going back and forth about this for days. At this point, it seems like they’ll never agree. They may not be spending the money they’ve been saving for a home addition idea anytime soon.

“I don’t think so,” Joey argues back, “my idea is more useful.” “That’s great. For you,” Melissa retorts. “Look, there’s got to be some middle ground here we aren’t seeing. Let’s look around for ideas and see if we can find something we both like. Otherwise, this will go nowhere.”

The couple call a truce and get onto their computer to start looking at home addition ideas.

1. A Private Getaway: The Master Suite Balcony

“Now this is fancy with a capital ‘F’”, Joey whistles in amazement:

“It could be like our own love balcony,” Melissa sighs longingly. “Our what?” Joey asks, sounding confused. “Like our own private date night spot, Joey. Imagine looking at the setting sun from our own balcony, stargazing, maybe even watching the sun rise. It would be magical.”

“Would we use it enough though?” Joey carefully asks. “I would use it all the time! Every day sipping a hot cup of coffee while looking out from the balcony. Oh, it sounds wonderful.” Melissa is already lost in the dream. “Let’s…check out some other home addition ideas before we get too attached, hon.” Joey thoughtfully says.

2. Detached Garages Can Serve Many Purposes

“Here we go, now we’re talking,” Joey whoops happily.

“Just because it’s an idea on here doesn’t mean we’re going to get it,” Melissa says. “At least we can both use the balcony, but so far this detached garage seems like your man-cave. We have a basement for that.” Joey turns towards her, saying “But the basement isn’t finished …”

“Yeah,” she replies, “makes it more cavey. Men like that, right?” Joey sits there for a second before bursting into laughter.

“Ok, that’s great. But as for the detached garage, maybe a car with your name on it will come with it. Or you can use it for storage or it can be a home office. Then you can remodel the old garage into something else, like a woman-cave,” he ends, smiling.

Now it’s Melissa’s turn to laugh. “Ok it’s a definite maybe. Oooooo I could turn the old garage into a spare room for my mother! Awh, but let’s keep looking. This is fun!”

3. A Porch Or Patio Is Pretty

“These are classic home addition ideas, and I can see why.”

.fusion-gallery-1 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid #f6f6f6;}

“We can sit outside and enjoy the nice weather, have fun get-togethers outside, ooooo maybe even a fire pit for warmth and s’mores.” Melissa gushes with excitement. “She’s already making s’mores in her head,” Joey thinks with a smile. “I’ll consider it if we can get a tv hookup out there. Watching football outside makes it feel more like we’re actually there.”

Then they continue the search.

4. Home Addition Ideas: The Deck Section

“Hey, a deck combines balcony and patio. It’s the best of both worlds.” Joey points out.

“Yes but it takes away from what makes them special,” Melissa comes back. “Not saying a deck wouldn’t be nice to have or anything.”

.fusion-gallery-2 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid #f6f6f6;}

“All we’d need is a stain or paint job to finish it off and we can have a really nice looking home addition. We could have a fire pit up there, be higher up (which is always fun), plus then we have a lower area beneath it to store stuff or whatever.”

Melissa looks at Joey thoughtfully, “You’ve been planning this for a bit, haven’t you?” “My parents had a deck, remember? That’s just what we did with it.” Keeping the deck in mind, the couple moves on to finding the fifth and final of their home addition ideas.

5. Finishing The Basement: A Home Addition Idea?

“Is this even really a home addition?”

.fusion-gallery-3 .fusion-gallery-image {border:0px solid #f6f6f6;}

“Well, let’s think about it for a sec hon. Unfinished basements are kinda just, sitting there, like ours. If we turn it into a place we can use, then it’s like we added another space to our home. That makes it a home addition. We could turn it into a nice little area for entertaining, a place for the kids to play, a man-cave….” Joey trails off.

“You are just determined to have a man-cave, huh” Melissa giggles. “But I have to agree, finishing the basement does sound like a home addition and a good idea too.”

Which Will The Couple Choose?

Joey and Melissa, after much discussion, decide the best home addition for them is finishing the basement. It satisfies their current needs, solves some of their problems, and should be right in their price range. Now they just need to find a basement finishing company.

Kitchen Backsplash Ideas: 3 Popular Styles In Westchester

These 3 kitchen backsplash ideas are in real kitchens in the Westchester and Mahopac areas. A contemporary white tile, classic white tile with designed diamonds, and a granite kitchen backsplash are 3 styles installed in kitchens near you.

Let’s follow Joe and Liz as they try to decide between these 3 styles for their kitchen remodel.

“What do you mean you don’t want to?!”

Joe folds his arms and plants his feet a little farther apart. He isn’t about to waste his time looking at kitchen backsplash ideas online with his wife, Liz, when his input won’t mean anything in the end.

He replies hotly, “I mean I don’t want to look at these when the final decision is all yours anyway. It’s like if we go shopping for tools and I choose whichever I want even if you think another is better.” It has actually happened before.

“Well,” Liz pauses to think for a moment, “we both use the kitchen, so how about we only go with the one we both want. Speaking of using the kitchen it is your turn to cook tonight, right?” Joe replies skeptically, “Are you sure? About the backsplash part, you’re right about it being my turn to cook tonight.”

“Yes, now will you please come over here and look with me? I found a contractor site that has some great pictures.”

Joe walks over and sits next to his wife. He sees that she’s on https://fisherbuildingco.com/portfolio/ and he has to admit, some of the pictures do look nice, like this first one.

Kitchen Backsplash Idea #1: White Tile With Diamonds

“Ooooo I like this!” Liz coos:

Joe has to admit to himself, it’s a nice design. “Yeah, it’s alright. I mean, the design in the diamond is pretty good. I wouldn’t mind having it in the kitchen.” He sees Liz’s eyebrow twitch. After so many years of marriage she can read him like a book.

Doesn’t mean he’ll come out and admit anything though.

Suddenly the page goes blank and starts to load. “Wait, what, I did not press anything why is this happening Joe what is going on help!” Liz frantically bursts.

“I don’t…” Joe starts to say when the page finishes loading. What they see first are more pictures of the same kitchen backsplash idea:

“Wow,” Joe thinks, that diamond design is intricate. I actually really like it.” “Well,” he sighs, “I don’t know how we ended up here but there are more pictures so let’s go ahead and take a look.”

Kitchen Backsplash Idea #2: Contemporary

Aka Subway Tile Backsplash

“This certainly says modern,” says Liz matter-of-factly:

“Oh wow, yeah,” Joe lets slip. “Uh, I mean, oh wow, yeah, you’re right it certainly looks modern, not that I’m excited about it or anything.” He sees that smile on Liz’s face that means she is seeing right through him.

“It is nice,” Liz says hesitantly, “but we will have to remodel the whole kitchen for this kitchen backsplash idea. We might anyways so that is not a huge problem.” Joe coughs and says “Let’s keep looking. I like what I see so far so there might be an even better backsplash look here.”

Kitchen Backsplash Idea #3: A Granite Backsplash

“Hmm, this would actually look quite nice with our current cabinets.”

Joe grudgingly agrees. It’s not that he doesn’t like the design it’s just he wasn’t expecting to see so many designs he actually likes.

This one would look especially good in the kitchen. He can envision it as he walks into their kitchen to cook later tonight.

“I know what that smile means,” Liz says, interrupting his daydream.

“Yeah yeah yeah I’m actually having a good time,” Joe says with a small smile. Nothing escapes her, which is one of the reasons he loves her.

“I actually really want one of these ideas for our kitchen.” Liz raises her eyebrows in surprise and says “Already?! Well that was fast. Alright, which one?”

Joe begins, “Well, my favorite one is…”
