When I decided to renovate my basement, I preferred to go with Talent Renovations. I had experience working with them when I finished my garage. I could see back then that he has a good work ethic and great workmanship, but I was advised to look into other contractors and get estimates. We got 2 other quotes, the second one was from a big company, the quote was more expensive and I could tell that this company is more into subcontracting all of its work, the third one was the lowest but I was not willing to take a risk of going with a new contractor that I have not seen their workmanship just to save some money.
Talent Renovations can provide you with a 3D plan of what you have discussed in designing, in this way, you can see what it will look like. Wesley, can also advise you on any particular concerns that you might have, and one of my major concerns is that newer-built houses use long-span joists, from an engineering standpoint it is ok, but I dont like it when Im sitting on the main floor and someone walks you can feel the floor vibrating. So I was proposing a beam across the wide area in the basement but without making the ceiling ugly. He came up with a solution that could reduce the vibration significantly and simultaneously form part of the bulkhead.
The whole project was smooth for us, from designing, getting the permits, setting up, bringing materials and supplies, inspections, painting and finishing, and even up to touch-ups. If I have to say one thing about Talent Renovations, it would be Perfection. He is very meticulous and takes pride in his work, he also makes sure that the people he hires for things he is not certified for like plumbing and electrical, have good quality work and does not cut corners.
I have no regrets about going with Talent Renovations. There is This would work or that is acceptable and there is Talent Renovations who will say This is much better.
