Basement Renovation

Upon contacting a number of companies, we decided to go with Finished Basement because of the way they approach projects. Their quote was neither the most expensive nor the cheapest, and while their estimate of 2-3 weeks to complete the job might sound at first too good to be true, when you see how they work you can understand why they are able to pull it off without compromising quality (our project was done in 2 weeks). They were always on time, always cleaned up at the end of the day, they answered our questions, promptly responded to our calls and accommodated to our requests. Natalie's advice was very helpful to make up our minds for the flooring and wall colours and Igor (electrician) helped us come up with an effective design for all electrical points.

The project went smoothly, with minimal disruption to our lives, and we are pleased with the end result. These guys know their stuff, from the estimation phase with Vitalyi where they use detailed forms to walk you through each aspect of the project you need to be aware of, to the execution where they have developed a well thought approach that allows them to plan and carry out projects effectively (i.e., getting materials on site on time, coordinating who will be on site each day to do specific tasks, etc.).

A couple of minor details for improvement that we noticed later on after the end of the project: when taking measurements for getting custom blinds for the windows we found out the space left on the wall around the windows wasn't quite the same (varied by window), and the custom shelves installed in the laundry closet weren't uniform either, nothing you can notice at first sight but only when actually taking measurements.

Overall, we are satisfied with the work and glad that we were able to get a nice basement finished without spending several weeks on the project.

Basement renovation

We live in south Mississauga and had three estimates done before allowing Basements.ca to renovate our basement. We found Basements.ca through word of mouth from another customer who highly recommended this company. We viewed their basement first, to see the quality of work we might expect. After gutting our basement, it was clear that the original builders had cut corners and compromised safety with respect to the steel support beams. It clearly should not have passed inspection. Basements.ca brought this to our attention addressed the issue in a most professional manner. They brought in a structural engineer to assess and resolve the situation, to ensure that there would be no safety issues. The decision making followed a logical process, and suggestions were made that we wouldn't have even thought of. Reinforcing a beam to allow the removal of an intrusive support post, bathroom and gas fireplace location, lighting suggestions...they had lots of great ideas. Vitaliy and his crew were very accessible and responded to all our concerns quickly. They were good to their word in completing this project on time and on budget. Even a year and a half later they came back to help us with a minor plumbing issue in our bathroom... same day service at no charge. You don't see follow-up customer support like this very often.
We certainly have no reservations about recommending basements.ca. Thanks Vitaliy.

Great experience

We went through multiple quotes with various contractors and chose finishedbasement.ca only because of their transparency in costs. Everyone else gave us vague quotes (some cheaper and some more expensive) and we never fully understood what the basement would end up looking like. But with finishedbasement.ca, we knew exactly what we were paying for. Joe and Natalie did a fanstastic job of walking us through all the steps of realizing our dream basement.

We also want to thank all the trades people who worked on our basement. They did a great job and never bothered us with stupid questions or issues (which is often the case with other contractors). These guys figured out solutions as they moved along. Lastly, our basement was completed in just over 2 weeks time! If you want a worry-free premium experience at a reasonable cost hire finishedbasement.ca!

Basement Constuction

It was a pleasure dealing with all from Finished Basements. Joe, Natalie, Igor and all the crews were professional, polite and timely in their work. Our basement is approximatley 1100sq.ft and the job was completed in 2 weeks as promised with no sacrifice on the quality of work. After completion, Igor completed his review of the work done and we came in slightly under the quote...a nice surprise. The only thing left for us to do was to move in the furntiture and enjoy!
I would, and have already recommended Finished Basements to anyone looking to complete their own basement project.

In-Law Suite - Basement

With the passing of my dad, my mom was becoming lonely in her place. We were concerned for her well-being, and decided we needed to take her in, but wanted for her to continue to feel that she had her own space. We decided to finish the basement, and create a 2-bedroom in-law suite. We searched the web, and found several contractors. Many promised a lot, others seemed a little outside of their comfort zone. When I spoke to Vitalyis, we knew straight away that these guys knew what they were talking about. They specialized in basements, and it showed.

We received a quote, and it really was in line with the other contractors we had spoken to, but the confidence demonstrated in our conversations, made us choose Finished Basements.

We quickly found that the company is truly a family business, and withing a few short days, the team was becoming part of our family. The team knew why were were finishing the basement, and would offer advice, keeping my mother in mind (she's in her 70's). We truly appreciated that extra care.

The basement was completed on time, and on budget, as promised. The finished suite is a place that is worthy of my mother, and we are proud of the transformation of a completely unfinished space, to a beautiful in-law suite.

I can not overstate the strong communication between Vitaliys, Igor x 3, and Natalie. The team always responded to calls and emails through the entire process, and I know that even now, I could call and that they would respond.

Thank you Finished Basements. We had an urgent need, and you did not disappoint in your delivery.

Basement finishing

They finished in 2 weeks and right on budget. Crews were excellent and hard working. Attention to detail was amazing. Materials and work were outstanding. Finished product exceeded our highest hopes. Igor is honest, friendly, and clear. Honestly, don't hire anyone else to do your basement. It was money well spent.

Basement Renovation

After getting several quotes and reading tons of these reviews on homestsrs we couldn't be happier with choosing finishedbasement.ca to do our basement renovation.

We had a blank canvas to start with and being our first detached home we had an idea of what we wanted but no real concept of how to put it together.

With the help of Joe, Igor and Natalie we were able to bring our vision to life. It was more than us just telling them what we wanted, it was them bringing their knowledge and expertise to help guide us in the right direction in making decisions that turned out looking amazing.

Not only did the work get done right and under budget but It was done earlier than anticipated so we could enjoy the space for Christmas.

I would highly recommend using them especially if you want a company that cares about their customer and the work that they do.

Thanks to the entire team from the crew to the owners for all their help!

Basement Renovation

Finished basement Team is extremely professional and honored their word of completing the work in 2 weeks. They were on time everytime. I tried to obtain quotes from several people - some would give time and never show up and some would just demand the project to be given to them before they even visited our place. Vitaliy (owner) was the one that came to our rescue through Google :). And then we also heard about his work through a friend's friend. Everything was explained in detail and there were no surprises - in terms of his delivery of work , materials and cost. His staff is very good as well and cheerful. Yes they are a little expensive than the norm .... but I was highly impressed with their work. Igor is another charming person. He helped us design our basement and if something could not be done explained in detail as to why .... We requested for few changes while the work began and it was acted upon quickly.... of course you have to be quick in putting the request through (well before the drywall goes up ) ... But the point is we were not pushed back saying it was not part of the original design. In short, If I ever move to another home and have to get the basement done again - I am going back to them. God Bless them and their work.
