My project is a basement completion. Right now there is tongue and groove wood on the walls of the main room. It also has a subfloor. The floor needs to be finished with some recycled oak flooring that I have obtained, perhaps in combination with ceramics. The ceiling needs to be closed with some soundproofing, drywalled and painted, some electrical work needed. Another smaller room needs to be completed from scratch - floor, walls , and ceiling, electrical, and main plumbing input valve relocated to room next to it. . Short stairwell needs to be aesthically finished.

Hello,
I am looking to renovate a basement laundry room in NDG. The space is 9'X9' and contains the washer & dryer, a large sink and faucets, hot water tank, furnace, and electrical panel.
The floor is currently cement and the walls are bare or paneled. There is a main drain running through one corner. The hot water tank and furnace will significantly effect accessibility.
I am looking for tile floors, probably tile at least half way up the wall, replacement of the existing sink with something stainless steel, and incorporation of storage. The electrical panel sits within an old and roughly made cabinet that needs replacement. Materials will be simple and economical.
Regards,
David

Not part of the quote:
Other repair work would be done on the exterior to install a French drain. This work would need to be completed before finishing the basement to avoid recurrence of the water infiltration.

Ideally the cleaning portion of the basement will the removal of the floor would be done in the near future and the finishing done in the spring after the exterior work is completed.
We have a home in NDG with a smallish (20x20) musty basement that we would like to remodel. Specifically we would like to remove the old sub-floor, remove the existing walls and suspended ceiling, find and repair any leaks or dampness and then rebuild with floor tiles, a new ceiling, walls and shelving. We also have a laundry room with fixtures for a shower and bathroom that needs to be finished, depending on budget.

Thx very much,
150 year old house in Point St Charles (Rue de Rushbrooke) - I am interested in digging and finishing my crawl space, which runs under the entire house (roughly 600-700sq ft), and is currently about 5.5ft in height, ideally we could get it to about 7ft in height. I have soil reports & ground assessments available.
It's a big job requiring french drain, insulation, excavation, relocation of pipes, electrics and more - I might also explore re-pointing my bricks on the rear of the house along with a few other aesthetic improvements, if you have designers/architects, even better.
I'm interested in approximate costs and potential timelines for completion (I'm happy for you to come and visit if the time slots work).
Thanks
We have approx. 1,110 sq.ft. of basement we'd like to redo partially with tiles (where the washer is) and partially with wood (hardwood or floating). There is currently a floating floor that would need to be taken out. We might need to add backflow valves and isolation (ground is cold in winter)
We would also ideally add a water entry for a sink - dishwasher and install a mini fridge/ wine cellar. We would also need to add electricity (spot lights) in an adjacent basement bedroom. Finally, we would like to move an electric heater by approx. 1 meter.
Ideally, this work should be performed between january and may 2015.
The house was built in 1989.
A 850 square foot basement that needs finishing. It is currently unfinished except for the walls that are framed with 2x3 from the joists until 3 feet from the cement floor and insulated with fiberglass.
I would like the cement walls to be covered with blue styrofoam then framed with 2x4 and insulated with fiberglass and vapor barrier.
The floor will be covered with delta membrane then covered with 5/8" plywood and a laminate finished floor.
Basic layout will have one large main area, one small unfinished mechanical room and two small rooms(10'x10' each) for office and storage.
The current staircase is a rough pine staircase installed by the builder that will need to be finished.
Entire basement will require 1/2" drywall.
We bought a duplex in Ahuntsic and we'd like to refinish the basement. Its completely unfinished with cement walls. Cement is high and uneven so there is cement work that needs to be done. Basement is roughly 800 square feet, we'd like a living room, bedroom, and bathroom with laundry space. We've had contractors out and have an idea of whats involved by now. Work would need to start late sept as our bank budget with expire if work isn't complete by December. Must be RBQ
Please call if you're interested. Thanks!!!

I have a basement with 3 bedrooms, 1 dining room, 1 living room and 1 kitchen and one bathroom.
The rooms have to be insulated to stand the Canadian winter, the flooring has to be redone along with some electrical work. Washroom a complete renovation including the kitchen, I want to make it energy efficient and low cost for heating.
Looking for a honest contractor with years of experience and prefer someone who understands and speaks English.
Extending bedroom walls, put new wooden (bamboo) floors, painting walls. The house was built in1983, no renovations were done. One bedroom needs to be extended by approx. 8x8 feet. The carpet floor needs to be removed, the cement base needs to be cleaned and disinfected. A new floor needs to be installed in the whole basement (900 sq. feet). The preferred material - compressed bamboo surface. The job needs to be completed by June 15 at the latest, because we are moving in on the 16th.
I would like to finish the basement. Right now it is a big space without much. I want the flooring in hard wood and the ceiling finished. I also want to build one room with toilet and bath.
I am looking for a contractor who can show me his portfolio.
I would like a reliable craftsman who will work to my satisfaction.
Thanks.

Hello.
We recently bought a duplex. We would like to renovate the basement. Currently it houses a large open space, a bathroom, utilities area, closed off room and boiler room ( with an oil furnace and tank).
We'd like to remove the oil system, shuffle some of the rooms around to add another bedroom, create an entertain space and in some areas lower the floor (there appears to be a raised floor in the main room).
We also have a things to check from the inspection, so there would potentially be more work in the future.
The house footprint is approx. 25' x 28'. I want to use the basement for additional bedroom, a bathroom with shower, a playroom, a laundry room as well as storage.
Four windows (approx. 30" x 18") and an exit door (30" wide) require replacement. The current electric forced air system for the groundfloor and basement will be removed and both floors will be heated by baseboards, which should be included in the price. The electrical panel has the capacity to handle the new heating system.
Please provide an online estimate and time frame for the work. An accurate quote can also be arrange after the initial estimate.
Thank you,
Sue
