"It went perfectly! We hired BAS to do a full remodel of our unfinished basement, and they did an amazing job. The results were beautiful, and they were pleasant and easy to work with along the way. They gave great advice during the intial estimate and planning, seamlessly took care of the permitting, and executed the construction flawlessly and on schedule. They will be our first call for any future renovation projects! Highly recommended"

"We love our basement remodel. Peter, Alex and his team were here when they said theyâ d be here, completed the job as described, and kept us updated along the way. The basement now looks and feels clean and bright. The additional space doesnâ t feel like a basement at all and is enjoyed by the whole family. We highly recommend Lux Renovations."

"I worked with Prestige on a few, somewhat unique, projects recently, including renovating an old detached garage and fixing up my basement after a French drain/sump pump install. It was definitely a 5 star experience. Matt seemed more like a partner than a contractorâ ¦he brought creative solutions and ideas to the project, was transparent with updates and showing off milestones as they were completed, and even went the extra mile to ensure quality (example: he insisted that siding be sent back because it did not quite match the rest of the house). He also hooked me up with a custom side door for my EV charger cord that is going to make charging outside so much easier. I will definitely be hitting him / Prestige up again in the future."

"I have no skills or vision when it comes to construction, so there was no way I was going to attempt any part or function to finish my basement myself. There is so much involved with finishing a basement that the actual thought of getting it done was exhausting! John and his team made the large task to finish a basement easy! John has the skillsets to do the work and orchestrate different contractors with various skillsets to get each phase of the construction done. Proworks Interiors is very professional and know what they are doing. It was a great relief that they were able to make something that seemed impossible, possible in a matter of a few months."

"Lilco was a great company to work with! They are easy to communicate with and answered all of my questions and concerns. They are reliable and trustworthy. My kitchen and bathroom came out better than I could have imagined. I couldn’t be happier and hope to be able to remodel my other bathroom in the near future."

"Cesar and his crew just finished a remodel of my master bathroom. This is the second major project completed in my home by CSZ (prior kitchen remodel) and once again they exceeded my expectations. Cesar worked with me along the way to come up with the perfect design to ensure all my requirements were met. He is knowledgeable and his attention to detail is second to none. The CSZ crew, Armondo and Benjamin were also a pleasure to work with. They are knowledgeable, trustworthy, and hardworking. They also did an exceptional job cleaning up at the end of each work day. My dog even loves them! I highly recommend CSZ Construction. They will most certainly be back for future projects in my home!"

"Angelo was very responsive and eager to make sure my bathroom update was done the way I wanted it. His crew was skilled and hard-working and very respectful of my home. They put tarps down and cleaned up well every day. Angelo kept checking with me to make sure things were going well, and went beyond what he said he would do for me. I would use Charles Renovations again without hesitation."

"Andy came to our rescue after the hurricane flooded our basement. His professional crew had us clean and safe in no time. We were so impressed with the work we hired him to rebuild the finished basement and complete another important drainage project. Andy and his team are super responsive, reliable, and are very talented at what they do. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them for any number of home improvement projects."

Basement Remodel FAQs, answered by experts

You should plan on waiting at least a year and ideally two to three years after construction before finishing your basement. This will give the foundation time to settle in response to the weight of your home and the expansion of the surrounding soil. You can then repair your foundation and seal any cracks as needed before finishing it to reduce your risk of future leaks or other issues.

Walkout basements are not generally included in a home’s square footage, although they may be if they meet certain conditions that depend on local regulations. A finished walkout basement used as a living space may be counted toward square footage in some locations as long as all codes for livable space are met.

The best type of basement ventilation system depends on your budget, the moisture in your basement’s air, and the types of windows you have down there. You should consider all of these factors when choosing a ventilation system. However, the most effective method for basement ventilation is an energy recovery ventilator (ERV) or a whole-house ventilation system, which preheats or precools incoming air from the outside while also managing water vapor.

The average cost to remodel a basement is between $12,100 and $33,400. Depending on the project's complexity, the price can be as low as $3,500 or exceed $50,200. For a simple project like adding a home office, you might spend between $500 and $3,000. However, a more extensive project, such as adding a bathroom, can range from $6,600 to $16,500. The final cost is influenced by factors like the basement's size and condition, the type of remodel, material choices, your location, and accessibility. For an accurate price, it's best to consult with a basement remodeling team.

Adding a bathroom to your basement can increase your home value since homes with multiple bathrooms sell for more. The return on investment (ROI) for a basement bathroom is 50% to 75%. The actual return varies with your home and location. Adding a half bath to your home increases the value by 2.9% while finishing a basement increases the home value by 6.6%.
