HIVEX Review

We took a ton of bids for our basement remodeling job, and ultimately chose Hivex. They were the absolute right choice, and I'm glad we hired them. Hivex is extremely thorough and was able to complete the project in the timeframe that they provided. Communication with the company was great and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to ANYONE looking to have a basement remodel done.

Overall, Hivex is an excellent company that has above average communication and fantastic quality workmanship. For anyone looking to get a basement finished, they are a great choice. Hivex provides some great things such as emails that tell you what phase they are beginning (i.e. Drywall phase) as well as some great handouts at the start of the project that give an overview of the process.

However, you need to keep in mind that they do not fully finish basements. They make this clear from the start so it was not a surprise. They do not do any painting (other than a primer coat) nor do they do flooring.

We only had a few small mis-communications that could have been avoided had we reviewed our entire contract with our project manager at the start of the work. For example, we had in the contract a glass panel door at the top of the stairs as well as a new handrail. These both seemed to surprise our project manager. Also, we used IKEA cabinets and knew from contract that we would either have to assemble them ourselves or pay $50 per cabinet. Once assembled they would hang them and do the trim work. But they do not hang the doors. That was not made clear in the contract.

I would suggest asking Hivex for a list of flooring and painting companies that they would recommend at the start of the project. We painted ourselves to save some money and had a local guy install our floors. But, it would have been nice to coordinate getting the painting and flooring done at certain times. For example, if you can get your painting company to do the bathroom before Hivex adds the toilet, vanity, etc. that would be ideal.

The last thing to keep in mind is that they may be a bit slower than other companies. They were well within the time-frame that they gave us (8-12 weeks). But, because they do not contract anything out, their crews have to travel from job to job which takes a lot of coordination and some extra time.

Hivex was moderately priced and did fantastic work. If you go into the project with an understanding of what they do and don't offer, you will be very satisfied. They are a great company that does great quality work.

Its been just over two years since we had the honor of working with HIVEX in the completion of our basement. I consider them the REAL A TEAM. It was like the reconnaissance team came in , accessed then came the infantry, next, mission accomplished! Great job guys!
Thank you again

Hivex did a great job finishing our basement. They delivered it on time and on budget. I ve recommended them to several neighbors and friends.

HIVEX was an absolutely fantastic company. They did phenomenal work on schedule and to the level of quality I expected. They were very responsive with questions and flexible as my wife and I made modifications to our original plans. HIVEX is a family business, and they treated us like we were a part of their family. I would actively seek to use HIVEX for work in the future, and I would enthusiastically recommend them to anyone who is looking to get quality work done on schedule, at a great price, and with no headaches. Thank you for a great experience, HIVEX.

HIVEX is hands down the best!! We absolutely LOVE our finished basement! The HIVEX team is absolutely AWESOME!! We put off finishing our basement for years....until we we met with the FABULOUS HIVEX team! The quality, value and punctuality (they finished ahead of schedule), and perfection was definitely worth the wait! HIVEX is a honest company that cares about each of their customers!!!

We are beyond happy with our basement finishing. Hivex turned our cold, dark cement basement into a bright and airy living space that my family uses and enjoys now every single day. The Hivex team were very professional, friendly and I believe very fairly priced. They completed our basement in the timeframe discussed during our initial consultation and the project ran very smoothly from start to finish with absolutely no surprises along the way. They even built two custom wood barn doors to hide our unfinished utility area which look beautiful in the room. I would 100% recommend Hivex to anyone looking to finish their basement.

HIVEX did a wonderful job finishing the basement in our new home. From Dan s first visit to help us finalize what we wanted to every step of the way, their process was transparent and they were always responsive to questions. They sent out a generic weekly email on This is what is happening in your basement this week that was really helpful. We love HIVEX and we love our basement!

I posted without comments years ago, and just felt like I had to add comments after enjoying my basement for years. This company is awesome. They were easy to work with, friendly, professional, and did awesome work. There were only a couple tiny issues I had and the owner himself came out and it was fixed immediately. My only complaint is that they don't do flooring because I'd pay for them to do that too. Hands down the best basement company. Thanks.

My experience using HIVEX far exceeded my expectations. My project included finishing about 2000 SF of unfinished basement. This included a family room, crafts room, full bath with walk-in shower and wet bar. From the moment I made contact with their staff to schedule an appointment for an estimate through project completion the HIVEX team were professional and respectful of my ideas, wants and of course my home. HIVEX was true to their word by providing an estimate at the initial meeting. They took the time to really listen to our wants. They walked the space and provided recommendations. All the other contractors that I was considering required up to 4 weeks to provide an estimate. I found their estimate to very competitive, so we decided to enlist their service. I should point out that I am not an easy customer. My expectations are high. What really put me at ease and this was proven throughout the project was the fact that HIVEX does not use sub contractors. Their trades are their employees and from what I know they have been with HIVEX for a long time. Knowing that put me at ease. HIVEX provided a project schedule that provided flexibility yet kept them on track and us informed. The project manager was very responsive. My calls or inquiries were addressed in a prompt manner and the project manager was on site daily checking on progress. I can't say enough about this company. HIVEX is truly a top notch QUALITY company that I would recommend to anyone seeking to finish their basement. If you give HIVEX a chance they won't disappoint you.

We are beyond thrilled with our new basement! Hivex went above and beyond for us and exceeded our expectations. John was great to work with and took care of everything we asked for. They truly are the best!

Best decision I've ever made was to hire Hivex to finish my basement. From the moment of concept to completion Hivex is by far the best in the business. I don't do many reviews but I can't say enough about these guys. Professional, courteous and most important ON TIME EVERY TIME and always without hesitation will talk with you through the process.

Hivex was fantastic. We are so happy we chose to work with them. Every aspect of the engagement was superlative. They took our rough sketches and made them even better, offering ideas which improved the plans. They worked quickly without sacrificing quality. They gladly accommodated our special requests, and didn't balk at doing things they hadn't done before. They went above and beyond, providing "extras" we didn't expect. They definitely have a focus on making the customer happy. I feel I'm a tough customer with perfectionist tendencies, and yet I am extremely pleased with the way our basement turned out!

HIVEX was a pleasure to work with. They were professional, overly communicative, and the results were amazing and completed quickly. This was a 1,200 sq ft basement finishing project. I had 7 companies give estimates and HIVEX provided the design I wanted, with the best price. I am hesitant to have any contractors on my property to do any work, but I 100% recommend HIVEX. Little touches like crews cleaning up at the end of every day, emails describing and prepping for each job phase, and on-the-spot changes set them apart.

Hivex did an ah-mazing job on our basement apartment for my grandmother. My biggest hope was to build a home for her that didn't feel like a basement dungeon and they delivered in spades. I would definitely recommend their services to anyone looking to update/upgrade their basement space!

Can't say enough about how excellent Hivex was during our basement's transformation. From their pre-construction planning, to their courteous tradespeople, the quality of work, and beyond, I'm telling you, this is the best basement remodeler in the business. 10/10

HIVEX is truly the exemplar of a well-run, high quality, superior customer-service-providing, American small business. If you are having your basement finished or remodeled, do yourself and your home the great favor of contacting HIVEX for a consultation and estimate. From the first meeting, Chris and his team are beyond impressive, straightforward, clear in communicating, and honest, clear and consistent in financial estimates, and in payment and work schedules. They handle all permitting and municipality coordination which is, by itself, an enormous value. They have basement finishing down to a science, with the additional talent and patience to create and add cool, unique, customer-specific requests. HIVEX's work is top-notch and they stand by it. SO happy we found HIVEX! You will be too.

What we appreciated most was their communication. We were informed every step of the way. It was also great that they pulled all/any permits. Our project was completed on budget and within the estimated time frame. They were professional and trustworthy. We highly recommend them!

Three years ago, HIVEX finished a remaining unfinished portion of our basement into the bar/man cave and we are so happy that we chose HIVEX! During the initial consultation, they listened to our ideas and made suggestions of alternatives that improved both functionality and resulted in cost savings. HIVEX was wonderful to work with, from their excellent customer service to their workmanship and professionalism. The project was completed early and focused on providing the least disruption to us while performing the job by putting a key lock on the basement door and entering through the outside basement door. In one instance, a correction had to be made from our original plan and they gladly made corrections as needed. We would highly recommend HIVEX and based on our recommendation, one of our friends used their services and were also pleased with the results. We have thoroughly enjoyed our new space over the past couple years and would welcome doing business again with HIVEX for any future needs!

Outstanding company. HIVEX finished our basement 3 years ago, no issues.

It's a rare company that consistently exceeds expectations. From beginning to end, they were responsive and professional. If I ever move and need a basement finished, I have absolutely no doubt that I would start (and end) with HIVEX.

Chris and his team are awesome. Highly recommend for your basement finishing needs. The highly effective back office support, employee professionalism and their follow up is second to none. They stand behind their work which is unheard of these days. Great experience and very happy customer.

We had our basement done 2 years and we are so happy. They did great job making sure that we had everything we wanted. Also, any issues they address them right away without any delay. Thanks HIVEX!!!

We hired Hivex to install a large family room and bathroom in our unfinished basement, along with a pantry, closet, and new exterior door. Overall, we are thrilled with this company and would hire them again! We really appreciated the thoroughness of their work and that they worked with us to keep our tight budget on track. During the initial quote/paperwork process, the owner, Dan, provided several suggestions of items to cut to keep us on budget that we were happy to do ourselves (contrast this with another company that provided us a quote, who constantly tried to upsell and add-on work). And they didn't nickel-and-dime us, which took a lot of stress out of the project and really earned our trust.

The project was completed on time and fairly smoothly. There were a few minor issues, things that held up the project a bit, normal stuff that you'd expect with any construction job of this scale - but Bob, our project manager, resolved them to our satisfaction, and was thorough about wrapping up several lingering details of our project. We would definitely recommend Hivex and appreciate their job well done for our beautiful new basement!

After many years we finally decided to have our basement finished. We spoke with several companies, but could not find the right fit until Hivex. We had a design in mind, but weren't sure if everything we wanted would be possible. The Hivex team made our dream happen. When we ran into some physical limitations in our basement they found work arounds that made the design even better. They were professional, very competent and a pleasure to work with. Each step of the process was explained in detail before the work started. They answered our many questions (sometimes more than once) and were very accommodating. They understood that while they finish basements every day, this was our first one. We have been enjoying our new space and are very pleased with the entire Hivex team. We highly recommend Hivex for your basement finishing needs.

We used HIVEX to finish our unfinished basement into a custom apartment for my parents. They were very accommodating, fair priced and responsive. We are IN LOVE with the new living space! Some of the custom adds are amazing! We could not be more pleased. Thank you to the entire team for all their work!

Hivex did an outstanding job from start to finish. Professional and prompt. Project manager (Chris) always responsive and attentive to the project. Finished job earlier than expected on the agreed upon price. Would definitely recommend Hivex without reservation.

We hired HIVEX for. a partial basement finish and couldn't be happier with the results. Everything was completed exactly as we asked and on schedule, and they were extremely responsive to every question and concern. I would definitely use them again.

The owner guy just came my home to make an estimate to my basement project which was half done by other irresponsible contractor who stopped working and tried to rip me off. I told him what had done so far and what has to be done. Instead he tried to listen, he tried to intimidate and overpower me with very arrogant manner. He suddenly stopped and said he doesn't want to do it and even insult me saying that no wonder no one wants to do your job. He behaved to me like a half crazy arrogant man. I don't recomand any one to hire him. If you see him and talk to him you will know what I am saying. Worst experience ever with any contractor. Don't even think about having him.in your house.

Hivex recently finished our basement for us. They exceeded our expectations. We are beyond pleased with how the basement turned out. Everyone that came out to the house was so polite, professional, and helpful. They walked us through the entire process. They were always willing to answer any questions we had. Would highly recommend Hivex to anyone looking to finish their basement!!!

We hired Hivex Basement Finishing Co. August 2020. Their work is phenomenal. My husband and I are so pleased with the outcome of our basement. It is absolutely gorgeous. From 1-10, we definitely give them a 10. If you are considering having your basement finished please give them a call. You will not be disappointed. John Gaskell was our project manager. He was super friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. He answered all of our questions and concerns. He gave us good advice on design ideas. Such as flooring, tile, our bedroom, bathroom and gym layout. John also kept us informed step by step, so we knew what was going on during the entire project. There were no surprises or hidden costs. The entire team was very polite, helpful and friendly. We highly recommend Hivex to everyone.

Great company, very fast, affordable, and easy to work with.

I wish HIVEX did more than basements. Our renovation experience was relatively painless and the results are amazing! They even finished ahead of schedule. Good, reliable contractors are hard to find.

It has been several years since we had HIVEX Basement Refinishing Company transform what had been a totally unfinished storage space into a beautiful finished living space -- with bedroom, bathroom, pool-room, large living area, and wet bar. The quality of their work was absolutely top-notch; the price they gave us was significantly below other estimates we received; they were courteous, neat, professional and totally responsive to various changes we requested during the course of their work; and completed the entire project well within their estimated time-frame. With the passage of some time, the work they did has held up great. We would encourage EVERYONE interested in improving their basement, to at least contact HIVEX for an estimate. Other friends and neighbors have used HIVEX based on our enthusiastic reference -- and all have been VERY PLEASED with their experience with HIVEX.

Hivex gets 5+ stars. Professional, curteous, outstanding work and a fun group of people to work with. I would recommend Hivex over and over again for your basement finishing needs!

The entire Hivex team did a great job! The finished project exceeded our expectations. We spend as much time in our new basement as possible.

Working with HIVEX was a complete pleasure. Their staff is knowledgeable, talented, flexible and professional. This was our first large home improvement project, and we were a bit nervous about all that was involved. From the beginning of the project through its completion, HIVEX stood by us every step of the way, guiding us through the decision making process and regularly updating us on project status. They finished our project on-time and on-budget, even working with us through some enhancements we introduced mid-project. HIVEX kept our best interests at heart, and I am so pleased we chose them for this initiative. The finished space is beautiful, and my family and I enjoy it daily. Thank you, HIVEX, for a job well done!

We contracted HIVEX to complete our basement that has been an eyesore since we bought our home in 2009. We came up with a general idea of what we wanted and they came in and gave us even more options and better solutions. They were completely professional in there everyday operations and communications via phone and email. They did an amazing job on every part of the build out. From having to cut in a evacuation window to adding extra reinforcement for tv mounts. Every time we come into our basement we cant believe that this in part of our house now.

From the initial consult to the final walk thru of our completed project, the staff and workers at Hivex were top notch. We looked and looked at alot of basement finishing companies in/around Manassas, and went with Hivex based on all the reviews we found- we were not disappointed. It seemed odd to us that there were so many outstanding reviews, but I know why now. They are the best at what they do. Period. If you're considering having your basement area finished- go with them. At least sit down and have the initial consult and listen to what they have to say, you can always walk away if you don't like what they have to show you. You won't, but you could anyway

We had our basement finished. Totally dependable company. We didn't have to worry about anything being left undone. Hivex is very much recommended by this family.

Hired HIVEX to finish my basement. They did an amazing job. Very quick and friendly.

HIVEX was a fantastic company to work with. From start to finish they were professional, knowledgeable and detailed. If you are looking to remodel or finish your basement, honestly look no further, you will not find a better company.

Great place to get your basment finished or remodeled.

We loved everything about our experience with HIVEX finishing our basement. The process was smooth with great customer service, workmanship is amazing, and communication is excellent! Would highly recommend to anyone looking to finish or remodel a basement. Bob was the BEST!!

Great team and awesome work. My basement look amazing

HIVEX gave us the best quote when we were hiring to finish our basement. I'm glad we went with them. They did an excellent job, communicated well, and worked quickly. We also had some custom work done (shelves under the stairs and unique shower design for the bathroom) which turned out fabulously. We would hire them again.

Hivex did a great job. The workers that they have are great. They take pride in what they do and it shows! Only con was sometimes communication was a bit off but once we connected things were handled better then expected. Best thing was the price stated in the beginning was it much easier to budget for.

Highly pleased with outcome and pricing. The owner was actually involved; he and project manager (BJ) considered my budget while ensuring quality of work. The bathroom/kitchen turned out beautifully! As I watched the stages of drywall, etc. it was obviously more professionally done than those who actually built my home. I was amazed while watching the motivation of each worker who arrived on day-1 to dispose of items that had accumulated overtime. It was very obvious that each person involved worked at his best. I will post a review whenever my heart is in it, and when I simply want to say Thank you!

Our basement looks amazing! The company is very professional , Everyone we talked to was very nice and very understanding. They kept us updated on the process. We couldn't be happier. The whole experience was very pleasant. They created a playhouse for the kids under the stairs and it is amazing!

5 YEARS AGO WE CHOSE HIVEX TO REFINISH OUR BASEMENT IN OUR NEW HOUSE. IF IT WERE POSSIBLE, I'D RATE THEM 10 STARS! THEIR WORKMANSHIP WAS EXCELLENT. THEIR PROFESSIONALISM WAS OUTSTANDING. DURING THEIR PERIOD ON JOB THEY RESPECTED OUR PRIVACY BY PUTTING THEIR OWN KEY LOCK ON BASEMENT DOOR AND ENTERED FROM OUTSIDE BASEMENT DOOR. THEY PROVIDED QUICK CALLBACKS TO RESOLVE MINOR ISSUES (THERE WERE NO MAJOR ISSUES). WE RECOMMENDED HIVEX TO SEVERAL NEIGHBORS WHO ALSO WERE VERY SATISFIED. DURING THE WORK PERIOD HIVEX WAS VERY PUNCTUAL AND RELIABLE. HIVEX IS THE BEST CONTRACTOR WE'VE HAD THE PLEASURE OF DEALING WITH.

My husband and I had researched various contractors and business's to finish our basement and found nothing but amazing reviews from HIVEX. We got a very reasonable quote along with genuine and honest feedback and ideas for our basement. They were more than willing to accommodate all of our requests. Very easy to work with and a they finished our basement very quickly (with quality work). We have continued to use our basement to entertain and play with our children. We could not be more happy with the results. Thank you HIVEX!!!

Beautiful quality work for my finished basement. Would recommend them highly. Very nice job.

We really appreciate the hard work and professionalism Hivex displayed in completing my unfinished basement. Through the full gambit of planning, framing, plumbing, wiring, specialty door installations, you name it, their team stayed flexible and professional. Their work is truly worth the price as they not only completed the full project in time, but exceeded my high expectations in doing so; wholeheartedly recommend!

Hi Vex just finished my basement and I could not be more pleased. They were professional, attended to detail and extremely competent. They included many details that I would not have thought of. When I signed the contract I was completely aware of every item and what it entailed. Each member of the team assisted me in understanding what they were doing. Best contractors I have used.

Hi ex did an outstanding job refinishing our basement. It now looks a lower level of the house and not the basement. I highly recommend this company. They had great ideas on how to improve upon our thoughts and did a great job!

HIVEX came into my basement and helped me think outside the box and gave me more ideas to consider when finishing my basement. We ended up using one of their ideas and I couldn't be happier. They were on time every time they said they would be to my home. They treated this project as if they were finishing their own basement. I can't say enough about the professionalism and dedication to customer service HIVEX displayed during this process. They are a 6 out of 5.

On schedule with minor delays, excellent quality. HIVEX is great and I would 100% use them again. My friend who referred us received an incentive as did we!

Only complaint would be that it sometimes took longer than I would have liked to hear back regarding questions during the basement remodel. HIVEX explains this as they are taking care of their employees so they take care of us. This was evident throughout the project.

Excellent business for a big project.

We cannot recommend Hivex more highly. They were extremely professional and responsive throughout the entire process. They were flexible, always willing to adjust things if we needed to make a change. They produced exceptional work, and the very few flaws we found were quickly fixed to our full satisfaction. Their pricing was very reasonable, and the fact that they offered financing made a huge difference to us. We are utterly thrilled with our new basement! Thank you, Hivex!!!

The pros at HIVEX were outstanding. They handled the entire basement renovation project. It was great to have a project manager that was responsible and responsive. They were receptive to changes during the project and if something wasn't completely right, then they fixed it. You will not regret hiring this team for your next major project.

This entire team was wonderful! From the first interaction, to the final walk through, everyone was knowledgeable, professional, and customer centered. There were several occasions on which we had questions or changed minor parts of the plan and they always responded quickly, accommodating our every need and want. I would recommend them in a heart beat!

This is a great company! Bob S. was assigned to our project as the Project Manager. Bob and his team did an outstanding job. His team was very professional and the quality of work was truly amazing. We had a great experience working with HIVEX and we finally got the basement we always wanted. Thanks again HIVEX. We love it!

I had our basement done by Hivex; they did an excellent job. I am a very satisfied customer. They were very responsive to my questions and worries. They also worked at a very fast pace. Very professional, I will use them in the future if need be. Thank you Hivex staff!.

HIVEX basement went above and beyond to meet our expectations of what our finished basements would look like. The custom barn doors they made for our office space are out of this world. Beyond professional; highly recommend.

I'm really not sure if my review ever got posted? Coming from out of town moving to Virginia knew nothing about contractors around this area. When I purchase my home my basement was pretty much an open slate. I had no concept of what I wanted to do. With that I had several contractors they gave me the same speech but wasn't happy. I must say from top to bottom this company is soiled. Even though I had last minute changes and add on it was done. I thought they warranty was going to be sketchy had one plumbing issue they came out the next day. So if you looking for quality work with people who on the understand what they're doing this is the company for you no sales pitch my basement is featured on some of the pictures. How about them Cowboys!!!

This is a local, family-based group of very professional people who know how to provide great customer service and get the job done. We were very pleased with the way they were able to schedule work steps quickly and efficiently and make minor modifications without hassle or additional cost. They did a great job for us and finished ahead of schedule. We highly recommend HIVEX. Thanks Chris!

It was amazing to know such a team ..on time .polite ,very coordinated work. When one team finish they clean and prepare for the team who will follow them. They update you each step about what you will expect from noice or even dust ..i recommend them to every body who like their home and the money for such a project . do not look for another company as this group is the one 100%

We absolutely LOVE and recommend HIVEX for basement finishing. Everyone one of their staff is knowledgeable and friendly! The workmanship is amazing and when you have questions they promptly and thoroughly answer them. HIVEX was a pleasure to work with and if I ever need a basement finished or know someone who does, I would recommend them with NO hesitation!

We recently hired HIVEX to finish our basement. We were impressed from the first phone call, to our Sales Rep. Michael who went through the HIVEX process. We could see how organized HIVEX is from our conversation, to financial options, professional brochures, and well laid out schedules. Michael was very respectful and we never felt pressured to make a decision. We quickly called back and had a start date on the calendar. Our Project Manager, Bob was very professional and knowledgeable. The plan was very well laid out and they always communicated what the next steps would be. Bob was always quick to answer any questions we had and to give suggestions when we were uncertain. The teams can do attitude left us with no worries on the superb job that they accomplished. They proved that they stand behind their commitment. We LOVE our basement and highly recommend HIVEX to finish your basement too!

Hands down, the absolute best! From Chris with the initial estimate to John, our awesome project manager, to the office staff who kept us informed of what to expect next during each phase of our construction to all the tradesmen who were on time, courteous and professional! The painters they recommended were also very reasonable and did an excellent job! It was an emotional project for us and the entire team worked to meet our needs expeditiously and to our satisfaction! Our space is everything we wanted and more! I have highly recommended HIVEX on several occasions! If they did more than just basements, I would hire them again in a heartbeat!

Dan, Bob and the team treated me with respect. They clearly understood what I was looking for in my In-law Suite .I wish I had another basement to finish. Thank you all again. Marty Ferguson

HIVEX basement is first class, from the time of the first estimate until it was finished they did everything flawlessly. During the process they gave tips and advise but no pressure. They helped us with the electrical and lighting planning and their experience was helpful. to We had a 1200 sq ft basement done with a full bath and they did it on time and on budget with no surprises. You can't go wrong selecting them for a basement finish/remodel.

We had the pleasure of going with HIVEX to finish our basement recently. When we were researching companies in the beginning, we could not find any bad reviews or experiences people had with this company. Of course my thoughts were this can t be right especially now a days and seeing other reviews for other companies. From the initial meeting we had with the owner and seeing how detailed they are we started to see why they have the excellent reputation that they do. Each & every employee that we met with during each phase was extremely professional,knowledgeable and you could tell they took pride in the work they did. They were very detailed oriented and come up with great suggestions if your looking for them during the design. We originally had ideas of what we wanted the final product to look like ... then of course our ideas changed. In the end it came out even better than how we envisioned it to be. Any questions or concerns we had along the way were addressed. Very apparent they stand behind their work and it s not by accident they have the great reviews they do. Totally recommend this company

Hivex is a company with integrity. They greet you with a genuine smile from the onset of the project and walk you through the process of turning your dream of a basement oasis into a reality. We so appreciate their expertise and professionalism on the job. Even if a discrepancy arises, Hivex honors their work. They truly strive for 100% customer satisfaction. We sincerely appreciate their labor in turning our dream into a reality.

Great experience, finished my basement in 2017 and it was a smooth experience. I still get random gifts every year lol. Great company

We LOVE our HIVEX basement! The HIVEX team was professional, courteous and always helpful. You cannot go wrong with the HIVEX team!

HIVEX by far provides the best value for basement finishing. This is a hard-working, honest company that's very focused on making sure that the customer is pleased. The project manager works with the customer closely to monitor progress and design interests. HIVEX is very accommodating and works hard to meet the timeline they projected for the project. The end product was superb! I highly recommend using this company for your basement finishing needs. Thank you HIVEX!

I met the previous owner DB who is such a great guy. His family has taken over the business recently. They, apparently, have been involved in running the business for some time. I searched around a bit and their price for the basement remodel I was having done seemed to be best by far. To be sure, though, their quote was without some of the services others were including. In the end, they did an amazing job and came below all other quotes.

The job was about 1800 sq. ft. of basement remodel. It was unfinished. As such, they had to install all the studs, all electric, all plumbing and finishes, including installing a full bath and bar area. They have different crews that piggyback, one after the other, completing the tasks sequentially. It seems they have a good bit of business as sometimes crew members would have to be push back a few days some tasks intermittently. The job did not, however, have any significant delays and was completed in a timely fashion as advertised.

The process was very smooth and painless. They had a foreman who was in direct contact with me about all steps. I was most impressed with John for never letting a detail go by without being addressed. If I mentioned something, even casually, there was sure to be an email addressing my concern within a day or two and the concern was always addressed to my satisfaction. To be sure, there was never any "big" concerns, just little things that I, as the owner who has to live in the space, might be particular about that the contractor might not think about.

The workmanship is fantastic. The drywall came out great, the bathroom looks fantastic. The custom sliding door met expectations.

The negatives of the experience were few and far between. There really is only two, and one has nothing to do with Hivex. That is the simple fact that they will do whatever you want, and however you want it. So you need to have done all your homework up front. Know in advance if there are any special lighting requests, maybe there will be a special use area and they need to be made aware of that. I guess what I mean is that you might want to have a completed design, maybe with a designer, to present so that you get exactly what you need/want. Hivex was happy to work with me on all requests, but they didn't offer design services. Then again, maybe they would have offered more design advice if I had no idea what I wanted before I started. As it was, I presented a very specific floor plan on day one which I did review with their people in order to create the plans to apply for a builder's permit.

The only other thing worth mentioning is that their quote will not include some aspects of the completed project such as cabinet and floor installation and final pain coats. These can be significant costs and can easily add 50% of costs to your project. So, get your quotes in advance.

Ultimately, I have no reservations recommending Hivex and think they did a fantastic job and I am grateful for how smoothly it all went.

HIVEX did an excellent job finishing our basement & exceeded our expectations. We are so grateful for their customer service skills & wonderful communication. They made the entire process easy & kept their word every step of the way. Thank you HIVEX for such an amazing job!

Hivex completed our basement project with professionalism & great attention to detail. We are very happy with our basement. They go the extra step to make sure everything is done properly and the customer is satisfied. Greatly recommend!

We had HIVEX build out basement and loved them. Loved their project plan, timeline and communication. It was not a hire pressure sale when they came out to look at the space. No hidden fees. The quality and design were perfect.

We have been in our house for ten years with an unfinished basement and have searched for companies over the years, but have never been 100 percent serious. When we got serious, we had several contractors look at the basement and their pricing was completely unaffordable. Then we were lucky enough to come across Dan Beatts with Hivex. Dan met with us, and after ten years we thought we had our basement figured out of how we wanted it. Dan was able to give us new ideas that I believe cost them more money, but regardless of that, in his eyes, it made more sense to do things the way that he described. I can't say enough about their staff. Their staff is "employed by them" no subcontracing!!! It was a one on one experience with all of their crew. We were no happy to get to know all the individuals that get to work with their company. I can not say enough about this company and would be more than happy to show off their work to anyone in the market for a new basement renovation. Believe me, this isn't all the pictures. We've had people walk in our basement, and their jaw dropped. Hivex stands behind their work and if you have a problem down the road, they will take care of it. A + in my book!! So glad that we went with them!!

We recently had HIVEX complete 4 separate rooms in our basement and are very, very satisfied with their work. They finished a few weeks ahead of schedule. All work were performed by very competent staff who were friendly and very professional. They were very mindful and considerate of our property. The project supervisor, Bob Salo, was always available and accommodating when we had questions or special requests; this one point is very critical when considering complex projects. Hats off to Bob and all the workers at HIVEX ( B&B ).
We give them the highest mark and would most enthusiastically recommend them.

Excellent company!! They all take pride in their amazing work!!!

Hivex did a great job finishing our basement. They were always professional and helpful when we had questions or wanted to make changes. Would recommend them for your basement needs for sure

Never used the service but saw an employee giving people trouble over masks at a local store refusing to wear a mask... makes me really not want to use the service if they dont care about keeping our community safe. Wont wear one in a store what makes me think they would wear one in my home.

Hivex Basement Finishing Company came highly recommended, now we know why. The estimate was accurate, competitive, and the delivery was ahead of schedule. The project manager was on top of everything from start to finish and nothing fell through the cracks. When we conducted the pre-drywall and final walk throughs only minor corrections were identified and corrected on the spot, no questions asked. The materials used and the craftsmanship equaled or surpassed the original builder of our home. The thing I really appreciate working with Hivex is the no BS way of doing business. If they said it would happen, it happened. This team of professionals made it happen for me and my wife delivering an outstanding finished product.
