Custom Basement Renovation Company Warns Customers Of Potential Scams

Corefront in Calgary, Alberta, Canada recently warned consumers about falling victim to scams with regards to home renovations and urged those in the area to research renovation firms before hiring them. Corefront basement renos are quite popular with homeowners in the area for adding more space to their homes and the company states that they are always looking out for their community.

Lewis Cowie, a representative for the company says, “Renovations for a home are not something to be taken lightly. One would not just hire anyone to remodel their kitchen or bathroom, so why not take the same care when hiring a team to renovate a basement.”

Cowie says that Corefront specializes in high-end basement renovations and states that the company can customize any basement space to meet the design and budgeting needs of their clients. Their website offers a detailed look at some of their past jobs, including basements that have been finished and turned into media rooms, separate living rooms and other design aspects.

“We just want people to know that research is vital when it comes to putting money into a home,” says Cowie. “It is important that homeowners know how to spot and avoid certain scams that could cost them money. There are so many stories of people who have hired a company to do a job only to find out that the company doesn’t actually exist and now those people are out thousands of dollars, because they didn’t take the time to research the company beforehand.”

Cowie says that anyone who wants to learn more about Corefront Home renovations can simply visit them on their website to see that they are a legitimate company offering legitimate services. The company states that their basement renovations include walkout or non-walkout basements and that they can customize those basements to meet any design or space need. They can turn basements that are currently only being used for storage into beautifully designed rooms and add saunas, home theater systems, wet bars, stadium seating, gaming areas, office space or even play areas for children. Basements can also be used to create more living space in the home by adding a second living room or separate bedrooms and bathrooms, laundry rooms or organized storage.

“We can take any basement space and add design to it that will make it the favorite spot in the home,” says Cowie. “Our team is highly skilled and experienced in renovations, as anyone can see by visiting our website and looking through our online portfolio.”

Cowie stresses that anyone who is planning to renovate their basement or any room in their home should understand that renovations are not cheap. This means that hiring a certified, licensed and respectable company for these jobs should be the homeowner’s number one priority. The company says that scamming companies will often price renovations much lower than the homeowner expects and that if something looks too good to be true, then it likely is.

“We just want people to do their research,” says Cowie. “Take the time to ensure that any company hired for renovations is licensed and an actual company that will do a good job. At Corefront Calgary, we are always pleased to sit down and speak with homeowners about the renovations that they want done. We can discuss design and ensure that we know the budget that the homeowner is working with so that we are all on the same page.”

Cowie urges those who have questions to visit the company on their website to learn more. The company website offers more detailed information about each of their services, as well as a contact form for those who wish to schedule a consultation and direct contact information for those who wish to reach out via phone or email. A project gallery on the website shows a number of before and after images of jobs that they have completed in the past.
