I really liked them. The bid was for $22,000.

My wife and I decided to have our basement finished after debating the issue for a couple years. I decided to give The Basic Basement Company a call and they came out the very next day (on a Saturday!) for an in-home estimate. The sales-person was very professional and organized. I got a very good impression at that point that everything would be taken care of without any hassles, hang-ups or headaches. I was right. The construction began at our convenience and the whole thing was completed in less than one month from beginning to end. Very fast considering you have to wait for inspections from the township in between each step. All of the workers were very professional and skilled. The framing was done in a single day! Very impressive. Rough electrical took one day. The dry-wall took about 3 days (including taping and spackling). Final electric took one day. Finish work took one day. Painting took one day. We had the carpet installed earlier this week (which is NOT done by Basic Basements and is NOT included in the price so don't forget to budget for this!). The basement is complete and it really looks fantastic! We are very pleased, especially considering the very low price-tag. If you're thinking of finishing your basement and don't want to spend a fortune, definitely consider The Basic Basement Company. There really are no hidden fees or gimmicks. The only extra charge we incurred was to have part of the wall cut out on the side of our stairs to open things up a bit -- but they only charged $100 for it. The $9,999 that they advertise includes tax.

They had good pricing compared with other quotes we received and came highly recommended by several neighbors who had worked with them previously. They did not disappoint. Dominick was really helpful with layout ideas and very patient as we developed prices for a number of options. We got a good understanding of what extras (e.g. half walls) would likely cost prior to signing the contract, so we were able to proceed with some options still open. Once we finalized our plan, they moved quickly to get construction underway and the agreed scope was delivered for the contract price. Costs for the extras we chose were right in line with the earlier estimates. The project manager, Gail, did a wonderful job of helping us understand the local town approval and inspection processes, scheduling the different trades efficiently around those inspections and keeping us advised on next steps. She really minimized the overall delays to the project when the local town inspectors failed to show up as planned (twice!). All the Basic Basements contractors (framing, insulation, electrical, sheetrock, carpentry, painting) were experienced, courteous and punctual and they all worked quickly to a high standard. They were all very responsive to queries, proactive with proposed solutions to the inevitable challenges encountered and addressed any issues without hesitation. They really were a pleasure to work with. The finished product is just great – exactly what we had envisioned and further enhanced by the expertise & professionalism The Basic Basement Company brings to the table.

We have built 4 basements including this one since 1980 in homes we have purchased,this was the most wonderful experience we ever had with any contractors.Period. From the person who came to give us the estimate,the wonderful lady who handled the schedules with precise dates on what job was going to be done on which day,the framers,the plumber,the electrician,the carpenters to the painters each and every individual handled their job with professionalism.We had a lot of questions some I am sure dumb at times but they all took their time to explain and give us detailed information until we were satisfied. We are very happy and very satisfied with the job they did.

.Overall it went well , they do the paper work but customers have to take permit and pay the permit fee. Once permit is there, folk come over to inspect the work, validate the design , please make sure you spend extra time understanding and/or finalizing design at this time else it would be late to make costly changes. IN my case there was extra couple of weeks delay due to some misunderstanding on the design during the framing which was promptly corrected. This company demonstrates a lot of flexibility to meet customer's need and rectify problems as you report them. Project did complete late due to variety of reasons including reasons that I can't blame on them e.g. my sound insulation, theater planning and molding work etc. including some inspection/failure/correction cycle. Cost to complete was accurate and did not have to pay anything extra unless I asked for it. They are also flexible to take the cost out when you want other materials e.g. I got the carpeting done from third party, basic basement company credited me for hardwood installation for those many square footage. Highly recommended for competitive cost, customer service and flexibility.

They were pretty good. They came out quick and gave estimate, but they couldn't do everything else that I needed to. I didn't use them.

They were the most professional business I have ever used. The PM's were very responsive. Everyone they hired showed up on time and were very clean and professional. The materials they used were from home depot and they were high quality. Most of my friends have horror stories about getting their basements put in but not me. These guys were easy to deal with and very professional. When I tell me friends how much I paid they are shocked by how reasonable it is. I would highly recommend them.

I was very impressed by their processes and systems. Dominick came to our house and surveyed the basement. He knew exactly what we needed, typed up everything into his computer, and emailed me his estimate before he even left the house on the first visit. We changed the plan a few times and signed the detal. His people were here a few weeks later, the job was initiated and completed in the time they said it would take. Not one hiccup.Very competent installers and professional experience. I highly recommend them.

They had the best infrastructure and they would have been able to handle this. They had their own office. I liked that I could call and get updates on my projects. They had a group that would do the follow up. They gave us exactly what we needed. They didn’t add anything to the estimate that wasn’t needed or requested. They also had the flexibility to work with a TV show and they had done it in the past. They did offer a price guarantee. There was a guarantee that the price wouldn’t go above what was guaranteed. They had adequate references. They were established company. They had good infrastructure. I’m working with them. They are good. I hope they hold up the promise and do the work. The price was fair. I would use them in the future.

Overall it was a very pleasant experience. Everyone who worked in my basement showed up early in the day and were courteous. Other than the noise, I did not know there were even workers in the house. Everything was cleaned up each day. I was communicated with regularly via email to be kept aware of who was coming when. All callouts were corrected immediately We waited 4 years to do this project. the price was reasonable, the rooms are beautiful and I am glad I could use a local company. We love it!

My husband and I visited the Basement Store in Flemington, NJ. This might be a drive for some folks but it is definitely worth the trip. The showroom is complete with everything you need to plan and design your new basement. You can see the whole project from start to finish. Dominick was great. Very knowledgeable. The great thing is that his service does it all. We had a 1/2 bathroom put in. His service provided the plumbing, electrical, tiling, flooring everything. His guys and gals were clean, professional and helped me with some of my design choices. Most importantly I could not beat the price! I had received some really high prices from other contractors. CHECK THEIR WEBSITE... a 1,000 sq ft basement for $9,900. I added some high end custom work to my project which is why my cost was $21,000. I highly recommend them.
