"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."

"We couldn’t be happier. The upstairs is beautiful. Tim kept everything cleaned up while working, showed up promptly and kept sub use to a minimum . Everyone who worked in our home went out of their way to make sure we understood all work, and were polite and respectful. Phase 1 went so well that we have hired Tim to do phase 2 - take the kitchen back to studs, move it to a new location, create a laundry room (it’s out of the basement now Yea!) and walk-in pantry, new half bath, change all electrical to white, wood floors, all new doors, new baseboards and crown molding. We are part way through phase 2 and couldn’t be happier. Our home is becoming the beautiful dream home we’ve always wanted. We feel blessed to have found Tim and highly recommend him. We never thought we would be one of those people that love their contractor, but we do."

"I am very happy with LTB construction. I needed my windows replaced this year. After some research I decided to go with LTB. Their windows are the best quality for a very reasonable price. The crew was very courteous, accommodated me around my working schedule. Thank you so much Yuri."

"Our basement remodel was beautiful and the work was excellent. Nick was very easy to work with and we couldnâ  t be happier with the finished job! The quality of work and attention to detail was top notch. The closets he designed for our teenage children were amazing, with beautiful walk in closets, custom shelving and barn doors. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for custom work and plan to use him again in the future for some updates and changes to our house."

"The team at Nova is first class all the way. They treated our home as though it were their own and I canâ t say enough about their attention to detail. They designed and completed a full basement renovation in addition to adding a full bathroom to our space in what was an empty room before. They completed the project in a timely manner, on budget, and honestly better than my wife or I could have imagined. They are simply a pleasure to work with and we canâ t wait to work with them on remodeling projects in the future."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

A finished basement does not always count as square footage, as this varies by state regulations. In areas that allow below-grade spaces to be included in a home's official square footage, the basement must typically meet certain conditions. These conditions often include having a functional egress and being a livable space with flooring, finished walls, and temperature control. To be certain, contact your local assessor to confirm your area's specific policies regarding basement square footage.

Yes, adding a walkout basement will usually bump up your property value. Most homeowners prefer walk out basements because the exposed wall that’s level with the ground provides more utility via a ground-level exterior entrance, and they can fit full windows, which adds natural light and ventilation to the basement area. The only exception might be in areas prone to tornadoes, as walkout basements aren’t as safe as regular basements during a tornado, particularly if they include large windows or glass sliding doors.

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.

It is common for a contractor to ask for a down payment before starting a project, especially for jobs that require purchasing materials and equipment or hiring a crew. The deposit amount can range from 10% to 50% of the total job cost. While a request for up to 50% is not unusual, a contractor should not ask for more than that, and you should never pay for a project in full before the work has begun. To protect yourself, always discuss payment terms before starting and have a written contract that outlines the project timeline and expectations. Additionally, be sure to hire reputable contractors and check their licensing and insurance before the project begins.

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.
