Basement Finishing – Greater Boston area – Kaks – Us Builder Review

KAKS Basement Finishing & Design
Utilizing space to increase value of homes in New England
Written by: Tom FaunceProduced by: Sean O’Reilly

 
Basement finishing is a home renovation method that has become increasingly popular as homeowners seek to increase the value of their home by utilizing every square inch. For nearly 10 years, KAKS Basement has been the leading source in the Greater Boston area for basement finishing and organizing. With top-quality workmanship and a professional, personal touch, KAKS converts unusable space into a new level of living.
Founded in 2007 by Steve Sweeney, KAKS maintains dedicated teams comprised of qualified licensed professionals with many years of experience. These skilled craftsmen have helped KAKS to establish a reputation for completing projects on time and budget. “Our goal is to direct, manage and work closely with our installations crews and electricians to determine our customer’s specific needs while keeping their budget a priority,” says Sweeney. “We believe in open communication as a key to achieving the desired results.”
A full-service company
KAKS is a one-stop shop. With its talented and experienced crews, KAKS is able to see every project through from design to completion. In addition to basement finishing, KAKS provides full basement clean-out services as well. Customers do not need to concern themselves with emptying junk and clutter and KAKS is a full-service company. By providing all labor and hauling the company is able to maintain low overhead and pass the savings along to the customer. Once the project is complete, KAKS will rearrange any items or furniture for its customers by performing a full cleaning of the space, leaving it spotless.
In all of its basement renovations, KAKS uses Impressive Basement Systems, which has been utilized in the industry since 1972. The 100 percent eco-basement finishing system has been installed all over the country and was featured on the A&E hit show Flipping Boston. Along with proven durability, advantages of the system include water and stain repellant, removable panels for easy access, noise control and high thermal insulation. KAKS also uses 100 percent waterproof vinyl flooring planks with realistic textures in wood or stone and also offers lighting and ceiling options. Customers can complete their space with new lighting, detailed suspension ceilings for easy access from top names like USG and Armstrong or a plastered finish ceiling.
With mold and mildew a concern for most homeowners in New England, KAKS uses wallboard products that are specifically designed to inhibit mold and mildew growth. Unlike ordinary wallboard or other common building materials, these specially treated selections create an environment unsuitable for mold to survive. Prior to beginning any renovation, KAKS will thoroughly inspect each basement for signs of moisture penetration, which could be through foundation cracks, window seals or other vulnerable points.
Maintaining a personal touch
With its full-service approach and the niche market that KAKS maintains, the company has been fortunate to not only survive through the economic downturn but to thrive as well. “We really weren’t affected by the housing market collapse,” says Sweeney. “What we witnessed was people wanting to take advantage of getting the full value from their home. We saw some of the luxury builds decrease a bit but not by much.”
With an influx of space-utilizing work, KAKS has managed to maintain steady, manageable growth as a company. “I don’t want to become a company with a corporate feel,” says Sweeney. “I want KAKS to continue to be a company that runs a tight operation, and has people that want to do business with us because they know that they are going to receive personal attention. We remain very aware of that when it comes to growth.”
With its attention to detail and personal touch, Kaks Basement Finishing & Design remains a leader as a premier New England basement finisher.

A Boston Basement Finishing Contractor Who Listens

“When I first came up with the idea of transforming our Boston basement into a home office for my business, the contractor laughed at me,” Charlaine said. “I mean, ha-ha, right in my face. He told me the space was too dark, that it would never stay dry, and besides, what was I going to do about the furnace?” She shook her head. “The whole thing was so insulting that I actually gave up on my idea for a while.”

Then Charlaine saw what a Boston basement finishing company did in her friend’s home. “They’re both fitness fanatics,” she explained, “and they wanted their own home gym. So they had one built in their basement. Now, I have less than no interest in a gym, but I was definitely interested in having my basement transformed. I said to them, “You have to tell me who did this!”

The experience Charlaine had meeting with the Boston basement finishing contractor was much different. “It turns out that working with a company that specializes in transforming basements is a much better experience than trying to talk a general contractor into working on your basement. There’s a special skill set involved in installing flooring, walls, and lighting in the basement,” she explained. “Plus there are specific products used to stop mold and mildew from becoming an issue.”

Even more than the expertise, Charlaine valued the fact that her Boston basement finishing contractor really listened to her. “He didn’t tell me anything was impossible. Instead, he really delved into how I wanted to use the space, and what would make it work well for me. What a refreshing change!” Today, Charlaine spends three or four days a week working out of her basement office. “I certainly don’t miss the commute to the office,” she said, “and having this bright, airy office appear out of what was a cramped, dark basement was the best thing that could have happened to this space.”

"Impressive Basements keeps their word! Four years after they redid my basement I had to take down a wall in order to remove an old oil tank. When I needed help putting the wall back together they arrived the day after I called…no questions asked! It now looks like it did when it was first done. Thank you, Impressive Basements!" - Judith, Bellingham, MA
