I had Salt construction finish our basement. I check out a few other companies first.
I didn't want a plain old finish. I didn't want just plain walls in canned lighting.
I had a whole French country style in mind, with lots of ideas and cut from magazines. I had a very specific plan. I was worried if I would be able to find a company that could do it all.
As soon as I talk to Korey I was sure he knew what I wanted.
Their company is for style not just for getting the four walls done.
I didn't have to worry about any paperwork or filing with the city, an inspections were all handled. They even thought to have a large dumpster for their debris and a portable potty for the guys.
And to top it off they don't even bother you when they come, they go through the basement window so they can come and go with no problems.
I wanted many extras I knew I wanted and light bright basement. I wanted bead board, and other upgrades. Kory had many ideas of how to do what I wanted and even added more ideas. Not only did we put in the bead board, but he's great suggestions we added, Borden Batten and board, I love it.
I had a large space in the hallway that I wasn't sure what to do with and Kory came up with a great idea right away. He suggested window seat and built-in book cases that are gorgeous.
They were great to work with. We had workers here every week day and many workers at time. They even put up with me texting day and night, they always got right back to me within just minutes.
I had a lot of items that were out of the ordinary from with that they were used to installing. I had fancy facets, and a several hundred pounds footed tub that somehow were able to get downstairs.
But what ever came up they took it in stride and got their work done and done well.
Korey was even was able to find and order the upgrade faucets that I wanted. They are so great with details, they even go over where and how many plugs and light switches you want.
One of the extra fun things Kory thought of was a little door to a play room under the stairs that the grandkids have gotten a lot of use out of it. It's not just a plain door either. It's a cute little fancy door with an open window and door knob and we even added a doorbell.
There carpenter was a highly skilled craftsmen. I wanted heavy molding around the windows and shelves, he knew exactly what I was talking about and did an outstanding job. Even the shelves in the closets are very sturdy. And he did it very quickly. I didn't have to pay for any extra supplies we only pay for what we used.
Even the team that painted the walls were outstanding every wall is painted perfectly no smudges no nicks no paint where it shouldn't be. He did three coats, so it is a true and even color. It is perfect.
I also asked to have my downstairs doors to match the colors upstairs. The were able to do it and they came up with the match the very next day. I didn't even have to pick it out. The painter even comes back after the job is over to touch up any nicks that might have happened.
I found a picture in a magazine of a barn door I wanted. And Kory found someone to make it, distress it and even painted it the same color as my picture. It opens so smoothly I can easily open with one finger. He even added extra hardware at the bottom of the door so it doesn't swing away from the wall.
For the two circuit breakers we have, I requested doors over them. So the carpenters just whipped them right out. Kory is very good at remembering all the details I wanted.
Our final touch of the rooms were the shutters for the windows. I couldn't be more happy, they found a company that makes and installs the shutters. I wanted a different style than most, but they were not taken back. They even sent me samples of the size and color before they made and installed it. It's like a cherry on top.
They even make sure everything is right down to a small cover on a pipe.
Not only all that but they have a cleaning crew at the end. read more
