The nice thing about hiring someone over doing it yourself is that it actually gets finished. My bf owns a home building company, knows how to do a basement and started ours....5 years ago....still not finished. Last thing he wants to do after 12-15 hour days. The hard part is he doesn't want to pay someone to finish it either....even though it seriously should only take a couple of weekends to wrap up. We've brought in electricians and plumbers, he did the drywalling himself and it looks like it...if you can do some yourself, great, get the family to help.
