ElkStone Basements

Nice Basement, but Choose Your Project Manager

We are very happy with the way our basement turned out, and we'd definitely recommend Elkstone. However... I would recommend specifying who you want as your project manager based off of any comments you hear from references. We heard great things about Phil, but we ended up with Justin and we were disappointed with the lack of communication - and at times, rude communication. Although the basement turned out nice, having a more customer service oriented project manager would have made the experience more pleasant.

Elkstone finished about 1300 sq ft in 5 weeks and pretty much stuck to schedule too. We had met with and received bids from several companies and elkstone's price was fair (not the cheapest and not the most expensive), their quality of work was good, and their schedule was the fastest. Dave did our proposal and floor plan and he was really nice and sincere and quick to respond to questions.

A couple more recommendations:
- We found their carpet guy to have a limited set of carpet options. He was nice and had a great price, but didn't have what we were looking for. We used "Total Floors" by Sante Fe & 25 and they had a great price and more selection.
- For cabinets, once again their guy didn't have what we were looking for. We used BKC off Sante Fe and Caitrin was very helpful in finding us a nice contemporary design that fit our budget.
- Ask for all final floorplan edits to be incorporated in the actual floorplan (not just a "we can tell the framers on walk through"), before build starts. It's a lot easier for the framers to follow along with an up to date floor plan than try to verbally communicate everything that has changed. Day 1 and week 1 are hectic so the less you have to remember, the better!
