"It went great. We got 4 estimates before making a decision and are so glad we went with Creative Basements. From the first time we met with Creative Basements to show them our unfinished basement and what our plans are, we truly enjoyed working with them. They are professional, stayed within budget and provide us a very beautiful basement. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to have a quality finished basement at a reasonable price."

"I couldn’t be happier with how my basement remodel turned out! From start to finish, the team was professional, communicative, and incredibly detail-oriented. They helped transform what used to be an ok man cave to a custom at home personal sports bar!! The craftsmanship is top-notch —lighting, and trim work are all flawless. They also stayed right on schedule and within budget, which is rare these days. I especially appreciated how they communicated and was not thrown off by the ongoing questions and changes that was thrown at them. Now we have a beautiful new living area that’s perfect for family gatherings and guests. I’d absolutely recommend this company to anyone looking to remodel their basement or any part of their home. Outstanding work! We will be giving them a call in a few months to remodel our master bathroom. Great guys not only as contractors but in general also made new friends!!!"

"We hired Derik to remodel a 30-year-old bathroom. Derik was always on top of communicating with us before and during the project. He kept us in the loop on progress and if he ran into any issues. He delivered on both the quoted price and time to complete the job. We were very impressed with his overall view, prep work and clean-up. The remodel turned out beautifully!!! Derik was professional, on schedule, and workmanship was spot on. We’re very happy with his work, would highly recommend, and are willing to hire him again."

"Amazing. We thought that this might be part of a larger electrical problem. They were able to identify and fix the issue fast and effectively. This was a critical issue as it was causing a loss of electricity in half of our basement."

"They remodeled one bathrooom back in 2019 and I had them do another bathroom and work in the kitchen. The tiling is perfection! They pay attention to detail, are conscientious about clean up as well. Also, they were able to work very fast!"

"Once hired, Mark and his team arrived on time and ready to work. Time line is running just as Mark estimated 12 to 14 weeks. We are only half way through that as I write this review. Looking forward to the finished product."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

Living in a finished basement is acceptable, but only if the space has the proper points of egress and includes smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) detectors to ensure the safety of the occupants. A good way to ensure your finished basement is suitable for use as living space is to get the basement finishing project properly permitted.

Joists and beams are both part of the flooring system above your basement, with the beams spanning the length of your home and getting support from vertical posts underneath, and joists usually spanning half the width of your home with no support posts underneath. The floor joists provide even support to the subflooring and flooring above, and they distribute that load to the beams. The beams then distribute that load down through the support posts to the foundation.

Adding an extension or addition to your home costs more than a loft conversion in all but the rarest cases where the home's structural integrity is lacking. Because a home addition requires a new foundation section or significant structural upgrades to handle a cantilevered portion, the cost compared to almost any loft conversion is significantly greater for the same square footage.

The time it takes to finish or remodel a basement can vary significantly, ranging from a few weeks to several months or even up to a year. On average, the construction phase can take four to eight weeks, but the total project time can extend to three or four months when including planning and permits. The timeline depends on several factors, including the basement's size, design complexity, the scope of the work, and your contractor's availability. A more detailed breakdown for an average-sized basement might include: framing (3-5 days), electrical and rough-in plumbing (3-5 days), drywall installation (5 days), flooring (2-3 days), and final touches like painting and trim (about a week). If preliminary work like installing a waterproofing system or addressing structural issues is needed, the timeline could extend to six to twelve months. Factors like difficult access, material transport, and ventilation needs can also add to the project's duration.

Rebar is an essential part of reinforcing a basement floor, as not having it can impact its structural integrity. It helps absorb the tension factors that contribute to cracks in your floor and strengthens its load-bearing capabilities by evenly distributing the weight. Not including rebar could lead to an unstable floor, so don’t skip it!
