"Mark and his team at Haven Home builders was excellent. My basement was flooded and they remodeled it from the studs. They were very professional showing up on time every day and attentive to every detail. When asked, Mark provided great suggestions. His team is trustworthy and I would hire them again for any future home remodeling needs."

"We had Mike and Jared remodel our daughtersâ bathroom and they did an awesome job! So much so that we hired them to remodel our master bath! Both turned out great and I would not hesitate to hire them again! They were always available and got back to us promptly. From estimate to completion these two guys were top notch!"

"Started with a bathroom overhaul, then a kitchen remodel. Meticulous and precise in his work. Very patient with our changes! Very knowledgeable, and we have 3 small children whom we were always comfortable having STHD around them. Answered all of our questions. Explained things thoroughly. Design team has amazing vision! Lastly, never once did we feel insecure leaving our home while SRHD was there working. So pleased that we had SRHD come back and remodel our basement as well!"

"The HomePro Remodelers, with their exceptional skills, helped make our project a huge success. They took extraordinary effort in cleaning up and were very considerate of our surroundings. Since our back porch enclosure has added so much to our lives, we are considering having our front porch also enclosed."

Basement Remodel questions, 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.

Egress windows or doors are required in finished basements to meet safety and building codes. If your basement is unfinished and used as a storage space, egress windows are not required, but anything considered a habitable space must have an additional point of egress in addition to the stairs.

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.

If you’re not sure which method of raising the ceiling is best for you, here are a couple of considerations to help you make that decision. A professional ceiling company will be able to help you determine the best option for your home.

  • How long you are planning to live there: although raising the basement ceiling will increase the value of your home, if you’re planning to sell the house, then go for raising the house.

  • The condition of the foundation: to lower the floors, your foundation has to be intact whereas raising the house will allow you to restore the damaged foundation.

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.
