Turn Your Unused Or Underutilized Basement Space
Into SPECTACULAR Living Space…

Basement Finishing Is About Half The Cost Of An Addition, So It’s The Ideal “Bang-For-Your-Buck” Remodel.

Stop dreaming about that big family room, home theater, home office, playroom, or gym. Or whatever else you can imagine! Bedrooms, bathrooms, indoor driving range—you name it, we can build it!

Basement remodeling is one of the most cost-effective projects you can do. The walls, floor and roof are already there… the footprint already exists. It’s just a matter of dreaming up a plan and creating the living space of your choice.

But be careful! Basement finishing is anything but “easy” in terms of remodeling. There are many tricky issues that have to be addressed—and should only be handled by basement remodeling experts. Most of the problems have to do with egress, lighting, ventilation, and moisture control. Failure to properly plan and build around these problem areas will put your home—and your family’s health—in jeopardy. That’s why we take every precaution to seal the basement, install proper drainage, proper egress and enough ventilation to keep the basement dry… and mold & mildew-free.

So take the next step and contact us to discuss your project. We’re the type of remodeling contractor that will take your ideas and give them wings. We’ve finished enough basements that we know all the tricks, all the best designs ideas, and all the building techniques to deliver exactly what you want.

Windows & Doors That Are Customized To Match Your Home, Add Value… And That Last A Lifetime.

Premium-Grade Andersen™, Pella™ And Marvin™ Windows

If you’re considering replacing your windows or doors, you’ve come to the right place. In the tradition of only using the highest quality materials… and only employing master-level carpenters and installers, Upscale Remodeling is proud to offer premium-grade Marvin™, Pella™, and Andersen™ windows to Ithaca area homeowners.

The majority of replacement windows on the market today are made from inexpensive vinyl. Vinyl does an admirable job of providing decent windows at inexpensive price points…. But it’s far from ideal for higher end homes or for people who are concerned about the look of their home, the efficiency of the windows, and the longevity of their purchase.

All of the windows we carry are top-of-the line in terms of aesthetics and quality. Whatever your situation, we have a window that can be custom-matched to your home’s look, feel, and décor.

The cost of your windows will depend on many factors, including whether or not the entire window unit needs to be replaced (or just the sashes), whether the windows will need to be stained or painted, whether the window or opening will need to be customized, the interior and exterior trim replaced, and the choice of materials (wood, aluminum cladding, fiberglass, or composite—each has advantages for different situations). In the end, our windows won’t be the cheapest on the market but… they will be a stunning perfect match for your home. In the world of window replacement… details matter! And we pay attention to every last one of them.

Call us for an appointment; we’ll walk you through the myriad of choices and help you quickly narrow down the options to the ones that make the most sense for you and your home.
