We had a bathroom installed and a wetbar. > > Pros: > Good promotional materials, I appreciated having a professional folder with quotes and options. They were very transparent as far as costs. I am happy with the craftsmanship, it's good. Pricing was very reasonable. > > Cons: > The salesperson mentioned they weren't the best at communication but they were really bad at it. I had deliveries made to my home with no heads up and as a person who works from home, I found it pretty disrespectful to not let me know or coordinate with me so I wouldn't get disturbed in the middle of conference calls. Also, their workers didn't communicate with the office and vice versa (I had countertops installed and the Hivex worker was there when it happened but I received an email later asking when I was getting the countertops installed). Also on communication, the salesman would say one thing to me then pretend nothing was said via email. Also, the workers weren't very careful with the materials we provided (I bought an outdoor light with a remote and when I inquired about the now missing remote, never received follow up; the toilet we provided initially was fine when we provided it but damaged after install and we found it leaking days after install). Our driveway is also stained in spots with primer which is another conversation that was had in person but nothing was done as far as the cleanup. Finally, my boyfriend and I were constantly having to go down to the basement to turn off lights. > > Overall, like I mentioned, good craftsmanship and pricing. However, I felt the salesman was trying hard to keep my boyfriend happy but disregarded me. I am the homeowner and the one paying for the work. Overall, I would recommend them to my male friends but would caution my female friends. They could definitely improve on communication. I am impressed how quickly they got the work done especially during the Pandemic. **Comment from HIVEX Basement Finishing Co.:** > Thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. We are glad to hear you were satisfied with the quality of work, pricing, and timeline! Your satisfaction is greatly important to us, and we apologize for any way the communication fell short of your expectations.

Mr&Mrs Harris. **Comment from HIVEX Basement Finishing Co.:** > Thank you for taking the time to review us! We loved working for you and hope you enjoy the new finished space. **★★★★★ — Barbara Birdsall, July 2019** > 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! **★★★★★ — Walter Evans, April 2019** > Hivex is absolutely the best in the business. Professional, courteous, always on time and you know from the first visit EXACTLY what it's going to cost and almost exactly how long. Very easy to communicate with during the process. I can't recommend them highly enough. Call them and see for yourself. **★★★★★ — James OShaughnessy, March 2019** > 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. **Comment from HIVEX Basement Finishing Co.:** > Thank you for this review! We are so happy your experience was so positive. Let us know if there is anything we can do for you in the future! **★★★★★ — Carol Eckles, March 2019** > I have the highest regards for the excellent work performed by HIVEX. > The workmen were professional, respected my property and were always punctual. I was completely satisfied when they finished and my new basement is beautiful. On my basement, all tradesmen were HIVEX employees. No subs. **Comment from HIVEX Basement Finishing Co.:** > Thank you so much for reviewing our company. Appreciate your kind words and business. **★★★★★ — Donovan Goode, March 2019** > 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 finishing of a concrete basement. 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. I even asked if they were willing to contract a renovation job in my master bathroom but they declined stating they only do basements. I respect that in a company, and it shows from the outstanding outcome I received. **Comment from HIVEX Basement Finishing Co.:** > Thank you so much! We really are happy to see you are happy with the final product. Enjoy. **★★★★★ — Liqaa Alkhozaie, March 2019** > Great ,organized,proffesional team. On time all time even when the weather is bad. Recommend them for anyone who is looking to get the work for the money you pay. By the time they finish you will feel they are family to you as they took care of your property as if it was thiers .i kept thier brochure in my drawer for years untill i decided to finish my basement and it was more beautiful than what I expected **★★★★★ — John Daily, Nov. 2018** > We finally figured out that we were going to remodel and finish our unfinished basement. Found the Hivex company, and I have to say they handled everything in an exceptional manner. In design they had a couple of ideas that really added to my original sketch - no increase in the estimate by the way!!! so they weren't just trying to expand the scope. All the work was performed, coordinated and completed on schedule. They even carried out all the basement "stuff" that we'd accumulated at the start of the job!!! so no need to hire an extra crew. The finish is excellent. Now the grandkids can enjoy the basement without tearing it up (hope hope hope!!!)!!!. Special thanks to Bob Salo the PM, but they all did great. **Comment from HIVEX Basement Finishing Co.:** > We hope you and your family make lots of fun memories in your new space! Thank you for your review and business. **★★★★★ — Jenny Hager, Oct. 2018** > 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!!! **★★★★★ — Bob Gerich, Sept. 2018** > 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. **★★★★★ — Rafeeq Colette Salaam Brooks, April 2018** > Thanks Dan, Chris and all your staff at HIVEX. You guys did a really great job. I wish I had more basements for you guys to finish. It really was a great experience. There are only a few companies of your caliber. > > Thanks Again! **Comment from HIVEX Basement Finishing Co.:** > We cannot thank you enough for your great reviews! We thoroughly enjoyed working with you and hope you enjoy the space.
