"Cornerstone was a great company to work with. I needed two rooms created out of an unfinished basement. Other people said they couldn't do it for various reasons. Michael and Darold found a way to do what I wanted and made it look great. They got to my project super fast and got it done as quickly as possible without cutting corners. I would hire them again whenever I need a contractor again. As a matter of fact after they finished the basement I asked them to remodel the kitchen too."

"We've used B&R for a number of projects. He's highly skilled, creative, honest, and dependable. A bathroom remodel was the most extensive project. I'm listing it's details below to show the extent of Brandon's work and capabilities. It involved taking out a tub and constructing a walk-in shower with a seat, along with removing a vanity and replacing it with two smaller ones, medicine cabinets for each, lighting, a new toilet, and a fan/heater combo in the ceiling. It also involved removing existing tile, and extensive tile installation in the shower, on bathroom walls, and the bathroom floor. Brandon is especially gifted in his tile working ability. He also remodeled a bedroom for us into an art studio, and several smaller projects."

"They added a 2,400sft 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home in our basement including full kitchen. Then, upstairs total kitchen and half bath remodel. Painted and stained, replaced all trim and light fixtures, some doors throughout entire house. They do most of the work themselves and oversee any outsourcing (outsource contractors are awesome too). They are very customer oriented and do excellent work at reasonable rates. We have no reservations of giving them access to our home when we are away.

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

You can paint your ceiling or install a drywall ceiling if the ceiling is unfinished, as they take up less headroom than drop ceilings. 

If there are pipes in the way of ceiling installation, you can do one of two things: reroute the pipes or adjust the installation to fit, which will cost extra.

For most basement remodels, you’ll want to hire a general contractor. This is for a number of reasons, but the main two are that general contractors have dedicated teams they are comfortable with, and hiring one means you only have to deal with one pro. You may also get a better project quote since they can lump all their work and subcontracting into a single quote. 

It costs an average of $32,000 to finish a basement, and most projects total between $15,000 and $75,000. If you just want to make the space look a bit nicer and don’t need to convert the basement to legal living space, you could spend as little as $3,000 to install drywall and flooring. On the other end of the spectrum, your costs could rise to $100,000 if you want to make structural changes to the space, repair existing structural damage, waterproof your basement, or install a kitchen and bathroom along with living space.

Since DIYing a basement remodel isn't typically advised, there are some ways that you can still save money on this project without putting yourself in danger. Some ways to save money on a basement remodel include:

  • Painting walls yourself versus including in the cost of the remodel 

  • Installing light fixtures yourself

  • Choosing prefabricated fixtures, like cabinets, over custom ones

  • Choosing a budget-friendly flooring option, like laminate or vinyl flooring, and add rugs where necessary

Create a checklist, reimagine the space use, set a realistic budget, choose materials and aesthetic details, and get professional support for guidelines and troubleshooting.
