Basements are an excellent space to have in any property, and can provide you with lots of storage possibilities and even extra living spaces – so they aren’t an area that you want to neglect. Unfortunately, homes and commercial properties all across the United States do exactly that, they fail to take advantage of the asset that they have at their fingertips, and the basements are left dark, dank, and ultimately, useless. A basement remodeling contractor team like ours can change all that by transforming your basement into a useful and valuable part of your property. Find out more by reading on below.

Basement Finishing
The basement finishing service that we offer is the leading provision in the area, and essential for getting your basement into a condition that makes decorating and renovating it a possibility. Basements need to be waterproof, then need to have fitted utilities, and the floor, walls, and ceiling need to be properly covered and installed – these are exactly the kinds of processes that will be taken care of by our basement finishing team.
Basement Remodel
Making the decision to remodel your basement, and add some much needed functionality to your property, is always a great idea. Basements are ideal for storing your belongings, but they can also be great for entertainment and exercise areas, and even for second suites – which represent a lucrative opportunity to make some extra money outside of your typical employment. We’re experienced at all sorts of basement remodels, and we always come up with pleasing results.
Basement Wall Covering
Covering your basement wall with a seamless, smooth surface is one of the first steps that you’ll need to take if you want to get your basement in a livable condition. We can plaster your walls or hang drywall for you, and these both offer attractive finishes. Of course, before that takes place, we’ll need to undergo some waterproofing procedures to give underlying protection.
Basement Flooring Installation
The basement flooring in your property is arguably the most vulnerable area in the entire building, at least when it comes to water damage and infiltration. We’re happy to take on waterproofing processes that will protect your home from harm, even down to the installation of a sump pump. Once the foundations for a functional and attractive floor have been set, you have an array of material options to choose from, such as wood, ceramic tiles, laminate flooring, and so much more.
Energy Efficient Basement Insulation
More than ever before, we need to think carefully about how we use energy for the protection of the planet – and basement insulation is an excellent way to do your part. Basement insulation helps to regulate the temperature in your home, and reduces the amount that you’ll need to spend on energy expenditure. This is also going to mean reduced utility bills, so it’s a win-win all-round.
Basement Repair & Restoration
If your basement suffers from water damage, cracking, bowing walls, and even sinking floors, we’ll be able to step in and provide assistance. The basement getting damaged or falling into disrepair can feel like a disaster, but there’s no need to panic when we’re around. We’ll be out to your property to assess the situation quickly, and once that process is complete, the basement repair work can begin.
According to Remodeling Online'sCost vs. Value Report, an average of 70-75% of the cost a basement remodel project is recouped when it sells which offers one of the largest returns on investment among most common home renovations projects. However, true value doesn't come from just recovering costs; rather its about what you get in return for your spend--a comfortable area that doubles as an extra living space, an extra bedroom, personal gym, kitchen/bath or storage room for all those unused items cluttering up other parts of the house!
Remodeling a basement can be an expensive and time-consuming project, but it is also one of the most rewarding. A finished basement makes your house more comfortable and usable for you and your family. It will also add value to your home if you decide to sell it at some point down the road. The cost of remodeling a basement depends on many factors, such as whether you are going to use an experienced contractor or do the work yourself, what materials you will need, and how much space you have in your budget for this type of project. In this article, we take a detailed look at typical costs associated with remodeling a basement so that you can plan accordingly!
Here are the average costs of remodeling a basement:
- Budget for $30 to $50 per square foot. If you want one contractor, and if you don't have any design ideas in mind, then expect to spend about $80,000 on this project. This amount will go up or down depending on your specific needs and budget.
- You can pay between $200-$400 for an unvented hot water boiler system that heats cold tap water through geothermal energy from the earth's core.
- The cost of space heating ranges from as low as 45¢/kW·hr to a high of 76¢/kW·hr at current rates (with propane).
- One window air conditioner can be as low as $150 and cost up to $800 for a unit that's 14,000 BTU or higher.
- Painting an entire basement yourself will start at around $200-$600 depending on the size of your basement (and if you need help).
- Cost of venting ranges from about 25¢ to 35¢ per linear foot installed with PVC pipe or HVAC ducts. It costs more when installing metal ductwork because it requires cutting holes in walls and ceilings above the basement ceiling. Expect this one time expense to range between $300 and 625 dollars!
- The average cost of insulation is approximately 15 cents/square foot ($1500), but prices vary based on type, how much material is needed, the location of your basement and if it needs to be blown in or sprayed.
- Cost for taping seams ranges from $500-$1000 with an average cost around $600 depending on how much work is involved.
- You'll have a few options when choosing a waterproofing product: rubberized paint (from about $300/gallon), concrete epoxy coating ($800-$1200/gal.), polymer coatings like Elastomers by Lambda Coat Systems (about $50 per gal.). It's important to note that these products only last up to 20 years outside! This means you will need another layer down after this time period.
- Floor installation starts at $20 per square foot as long as you order your flooring and materials in bulk.
- Basic insulation starts at $30 per square foot but can cost much more depending on what type of product you need.
- You'll spend about an average of $100-$500 for a new electrical box to be installed or upgrading the existing one, as well as installing lighting inside your basement if it's desired.
- If you're looking to add windows into your basement, expect costs from around $800 per window completed with installation included! The typical range is between three and five thousand dollars for this project alone. These prices fluctuate based on the size of your windows, whether they open up or not, how many there are, etc...
- Hanging drywall ranges anywhere from $25-$200 per sheet, with an average price of $70.
- Installing new flooring ranges from around $250 to up to $1500 depending on the type and quality you're going for.
- Just as upgrading your basement will require a lot of remodeling supplies like shelving and cabinetry, so too does it cost more than just purchasing these items individually in stores - expect costs at least double if not triple what they would be for something that is already assembled!
