We bought our first house!

Story #1

Hi! We’re Mim & Josh, owners of Beams to Basements Contractors and first-time homeowners. Since we started our family business last year, we’ve been so fortunate for the support of our customers, friends, and family. We’ve enjoyed sharing pictures and explaining what makes a top-notch quality finish that you should expect from any general contractor. Now, we invite you into our personal lives as we share stories from renovating our first house.

With Josh’s master carpentry skills, we can add instant value to our first home by renovating it and finishing the basement. And with Mim’s flair for storytelling, we’ll break down the steps of common home renovation projects and general info about how houses work. Plus, we aim to improve our communication and service as a small business based on what we learn from our own experiences as clients. Be prepared for honesty, especially about things that don’t turn out like we planned.

    WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

    We’ll post short stories with pictures and/or videos as we completely remodel our first house. We’ll share details on specific projects, working with contractors, buying during COVID, and endless before and after pictures. Plus, each story will have a brief summary section like Things We Learned, Products We Love, Bang For Our Buck, Contractor Tips, Homeowner Tips, and Specialist Spotlight for the folks we trust enough to work on our own home. Thanks for following our stories of our first remodel as the homeowners and general contractors.
