A finished basement family room

Home / Basement finishing

Basement finishing,
done properly.

The most square footage you can add to a home without an addition - and the room most families end up using the most.

What goes into it

From bare concrete to
the room you use most.

  • Framing and insulation - square, straight walls and a warm, dry space
  • Drywall and finishing - clean lines, no shortcuts at the corners
  • Flooring - chosen for below-grade conditions
  • Lighting - pot lights and layouts planned around how you'll use the room
  • Bathrooms and wet bars - where the plumbing allows
  • Stairs, trim and doors - the details that make it feel like the rest of the house
PermitsFinishing a basement may need a building permit from your town. checks this for you at the complimentary consultation.
