Mitten made basements completed a kitchen, dinning room and hard wood remodel for me. Brian’s team was worderful to work with. Everyday Brian was communicating with me. We had trouble with the cabinets and Brian did everything to rectify the problem. I can’t say enough of how proud I am to show off the work he and his team completed .
Susan Kroll


Our Deck needed repair and updating, contacted Mitten Made Basements. They removed the old deck and put in brand new deck all in 3 days. Mitten Made Basements is great too work with even when we added extra features at last minute. We asked them to work on our bathroom, and did another great job!
Dennis Lipski


After getting several quotes on completely finishing our basement, Brian was very competitive in winning our business. He succeeded, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. He set proper expectations and timelines, and all the different trade teams and all employees that had a part of the construction were extremely polite and hard working. Our project manager, Steve was here, working hard almost every day and sometimes the only person here getting the work done. At the end, we are just so incredibly happy with how our basement turned out, and we would highly recommend Mitten Made!
