"After Receiving quotes from 4 companies, we went with Finished Basements Plus. Not only did they offer the best price, but also included all permits and quality features such as metal framing without us having to ask. Todd, Brian, and their crews were great to deal with throughout the whole project. If getting the job done right for a great price are your priorities (and not speed), these guys are a great choice. We plan on hiring them again to remodel our master bathroom."

"If I could give Greg more than 5 stars I would. Not only is he super reliable and a man of his word, he is extremely talented and meticulous. He gave us great support and recommendations through the process and our basement turned out beautifully. It is our new favorite spot in the house!"

"Tim did a superb job of tearing out the old, putting in the new and repairing the active wet spots in the kitchen ceiling. I feel that his estimates were fair and reasonable and the craftsmanship was a world of difference from the previous subpar job I had done. He is very timely, works consistently and stays on schedule. I can't say enough how happy I am with his end result on this project! I'll be having him back to do another bathroom soon!"

Customers say: Terrific value

"Buckeye Basements finished our large unfinished basement, giving us the basement of our dreams. Now, when we have visitors, they have their own kitchen, large bathroom, two bedrooms, an entertainment area, as well as a book nook hidden under the stairs. We could not be more pleased with the results! Jon and Leah were fantastic communicators, and everyone who worked with them was professional and helpful. We interviewed six different contractors before hiring Buckeye Basements, and we definitely made the right choice!"

"Mid-State Basement Systems came highly recommended by a good friend from Buffalo, NY and they did not disappoint. From start to finish they were very professional yet personable. Larry & Phil in the initial stages of the basement inspection and a reasonable quote. Silvino and his team who done the actual work was incredible, done with absolute excellence. They were here when they said they would be and finished the job a day ahead of schedule. I am thoroughly pleased with this company, first class. I highly recommend them if you need work done on your basement.******"

Basement Remodel FAQs, answered by experts

The most challenging part of finishing a basement is addressing moisture control. Basement waterproofing is an essential task that requires a professional’s skills and knowledge. If you don’t properly waterproof your finished basement, it’ll be vulnerable to dampness, water damage, and mold growth. Ensuring proper insulation and ventilation to combat these issues while meeting building codes adds complexity to your remodeling project.

It’s less expensive to finish your basement than it is to build an addition to your home. The average cost to refinish a basement is $32,000 (between $7 and $23 per square foot) while building an addition to your home costs $50,325 ($80 to $210 per square foot). Depending on the size of your basement and other factors, like moving plumbing and electrical, refinishing a basement is a more cost-effective option in most cases.

Physically, the most challenging part of finishing a basement is installing egress windows or doors when the space is below ground level. Mentally, the hardest part may be envisioning the project and planning around load-bearing and mechanical obstacles.

Yes, most general contractors require an initial down payment. A reasonable deposit is typically between 10% and 25% of the total project cost, although this can vary by project size and location. This upfront payment helps the contractor cover initial costs like materials, permits, licensing, and hiring subcontractors. The remaining balance is usually billed according to a schedule outlined in your contract, often tied to project milestones or completion dates. Be cautious of contractors who ask for a large deposit of 50% or more, as this could be a red flag for a scam.

Save money on your basement finishing project by making cost-effective decisions such as minimizing structural changes and avoiding costly construction revisions. DIY simpler tasks such as painting or basic cleanup to reduce labor costs. You can also opt for energy-efficient fixtures and materials that may qualify for rebates or tax incentives.
