Buckeye Basements Crowned Remodeler of the Year by NARI of Central Ohio

Buckeye Basements: A Trailblazer in Remodeling

In an impressive acknowledgment of its craftsmanship and design prowess, Buckeye Basements has been awarded the 2024 Remodeler of the Year (RotY™) title by the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI) of Central Ohio. This honor places the family-owned company at the forefront of the home remodeling industry in the region, reflecting over 25 years of dedicated service to the Central Ohio community.

A Showcase of Excellence

The award was presented during NARI's annual Evening of Excellence, held on December 5, 2024, at the Columbus Athenaeum. Buckeye Basements competed in two categories: Basement Under $100,000 and Basement $100,000 to $250,000. Their accolades in these categories are well-deserved, as showcased by two remarkable projects—a stunning wine cellar and a luxurious bar and bathroom combo.

In the under $100,000 category, Buckeye Basements impressed the judges with a wine cellar that perfectly pairs functionality with aesthetic appeal, while the slightly more ambitious project under the $100,000 to $250,000 category showcases an inviting media room, wet bar, children's play area, and a spa-like bathroom, all completed to a high standard.

Judging Criteria and Competition

This year, sixteen remodeling companies in Central Ohio entered a total of nearly 100 projects across 32 categories for the coveted Remodeler of the Year award. The entries were evaluated by a panel of impartial experts, considering various criteria such as problem-solving capabilities, functionality, aesthetics, craftsmanship, innovation, and the difficulty of execution.

Local winners like Buckeye Basements have the opportunity to compete in the NARI Regional RotY™ competition, with regional winners then advancing to compete at the national level.
