Basement Remodel Framing in Port Washington, NY

We framed out a residential basement in Port Washington, NY to break up an open lower level into usable space. The main focus was new partition walls and a clean layout, including framed zones set aside for a future kitchen area and a future bathroom area.

In a basement, layout is everything. We set the walls so there were clear paths through the space, and we kept utility access and the stair area in mind while we worked.

As the job moved along, the basement went from an active work area with exposed ceiling sections and staging to a cleaner interior with finished wall surfaces, ceiling work, lighting, doors, trim, and tile flooring.

Project Scope

  • Checked the basement layout before starting partition work
  • Framed new interior walls to divide the lower level into defined areas
  • Framed a dedicated zone for a future basement kitchen area
  • Framed a dedicated zone for a future basement bathroom area
  • Worked around existing conditions, including utility areas and ceiling conditions
  • Kept openings and walk paths practical as the walls went up
  • Kept the work area organized while materials and tools were staged in the basement

  1. How much will it cost to gut demo and remodel a basement in Huntington?

    I want to create an open area with a few closets and a laundry room. I have plumbing in the laundry room now.

    my basemnt is 800 square feet


    1. Hello

      Assuming you will need flooring throughout, new doors, some lighting and electrical, new partitions, new insulation, new sheetrock and paint, new trim and some stairwork, plumbing alterations and closet shelving you are looking at an entry price of $30,000 which would be your low bid from a licensed contractor. A reputable contractor higher. 35$ /sf is a low price imo

    1. Hello

      I had a flood in my basement in Plainview recently. There are some spots that appear to be mold spores. We called an environmental company and the price they gave us was beyond absurd. Our insurance lapsed and we are not covered. Do you have any advice?


      1. Some things to consider:


        The NY DOH has a very easy read regarding mold spores. Read it and pay attemtion between the lines. Do not let an environmental contractor steer you into a contract


        most (vast majority) of homes have concealed mold especially on wetwalls (where there is plumbing). MOst long island basements are humid especially in august and that can cause visible surface mold. 


        you can find mold growth virtually everywhere. for example look inside your wall or window or ductless ac air handler. that black stuff is exactly what you think it is.


        dehumidify and clean (properly with masks). you are breathing mold all the time. Especially if you have an air conditioning unit. Dont lose sleep over it. DO your research. STart with the department of health. 


        contact us to figure out why you had a flood if your basement is prone to floods
