My priority is a job well done, if I'm not certain I'm the right guy for the job I'll be honest with you up front. I'm prepared for a broad range of work but I don't claim to be a specialist in any areas. If you're looking to only hire a single contactor instead of a separate carpenter, drywaller, plumber, electrician, etc., I might be the right fit for your job. I'm up for a challenge if you have a creative or custom touch you would like to incorporate into your project, let's brainstorm how you'd like it and if I'm capable of bringing your idea to life. \n\n-Do you own a vacation home/cabin in the area that you would like renovated in the off season? \n-Are you ready to finish your basement into a man cave/playroom/extra bedrooms? \n-Does the wife have a big item on the honey-do list that you would really prefer not to DIY?\n Give me a call or shoot me an email, let's have a chat and I can take a look at it.\n\nThis is a one man operation. My experience starts with 5+ years throughout and after college in a modular home building plant. I used the opportunity to work on almost every crew in the facility, learning many of the skills and techniques required to build a house from start to finish. I worked my way up into the quality control office after learning all I could on the floor. When I moved to a quieter part of the state I started a business doing what I know, and I can do it at a competitively fair price since I'm the only employee.\n\n Are you ready to get your project "Right On The Money"?\n

"Amanda was really very good!  At first I was very skeptical, thinking why did I pay money to just speak with someone on the phone about my kitchen remodel project... but after just a few minutes of her addressing some of the issues/questions I emailed to her earlier, I knew it was worth it.  It was very clear that she knew her business and she gave me several ideas that I had not even thought about.  I told her that I would definitely recommend her to friends and I will very likely use her again myself for my next home project!

FAQs for basement remodel projects in Plainfield, WI

Unless you have extensive experience in construction work, remodeling a basement is best left to a professional. There are several tasks associated with this project that require exact precision, including:

  • Replacing insulation 

  • Replacing carpet or other flooring 

  • Adding heating and cooling

  • Adjusting or adding walls and doors

  • Altering or adding plumbing elements

If any of these elements is done incorrectly, it could severely impact the quality of your basement remodel and be dangerous. Changing a basement often comes with code safety requirements, like egress windows and proper ventilation. Therefore, leaving it up to a professional is often the best decision.

The cost to finish a basement is $18,400 for the average homeowner. However, this cost could be as little as $2,800 or as much as $34,500, depending on the basement size and the materials needed. If your basement is already outfitted with electrical and plumbing, expect the cost to fall on the lower end. 

For example, the drywall cost for this project averages around $1,750, but other features, like hiring a plumber, cost between $45 and $200 per hour.

The cost to remodel a basement is between $12,100 and $33,400 for the average homeowner. The price you pay can be as little as $3,500 or as much as $50,200, depending on the size and condition of your basement and the type of remodel you're doing. 

If you're doing a simple project like adding a home office to your basement, you can expect to pay anywhere from $500 to $3,000. However, if you're adding a bathroom, which is an extensive project, you can expect to pay between $6,600 to $16,500.

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.
