"If you’re looking for reliable, honest, and hardworking contractors, Rettle Enterprise is the best choice. They have now completed two big projects for me and my family, and both times they were professional, dependable, and went absolutely above and beyond our expectations. They first added a kitchen to the lower level of our home, and more recently, they completely redid and cleaned up the mess left behind by another contractor in our downstairs bathroom. The quality of their work, attention to detail, and professionalism really stand out. I absolutely wouldn’t trust anyone else to work on our home. If we have another project in the future, Rettle Enterprise will be the first and only contractor we call. Highly recommend!"

"We hired Jimmy Wrenn for a full basement remodel, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, the communication was clear, honest, and professional. The crew showed up on time, kept the work area clean, and paid close attention to detail throughout the project. The quality of the work exceeded our expectations, and the project was completed on schedule and within budget. Any questions or small changes we had were handled quickly and without hassle. Our basement has been completely transformed into a beautiful, functional space, and we’ve already received compliments from friends and family. I would highly recommend Jimmy Wrenn to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality remodeling work."

Basement Remodel questions, answered by experts

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

Although homeowners often use the terms basement remodeling and basement finishing interchangeably, they are quite different terms. 

Finishing a basement is the process of taking a basement space that is not habitable and adding elements to make it usable. This includes adding plumbing, flooring, and insulation.

Remodeling a basement means taking an already existing finished basement and changing it, often by adding or removing walls, adding plumbing, or changing the existing flooring.

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.

To determine if your basement walls are suitable for finishing, assess their structural integrity and moisture conditions. Look for any signs of damage, such as cracks, bowing, or excessive moisture. Ensure proper drainage and address any underlying issues before proceeding. 

Consult with a professional if you're uncertain about the structural stability or potential risks associated with finishing your basement walls.

Building up by adding square footage to the top of your home is often less expensive than adding a basement, but it depends on the specifics of your house, your property, and supply costs. Because building a basement requires excavation, it can be a more expensive option than building up.
