Home Value & Financing
An investment in your home’s value
We offer a complimentary pre-project appraisal option where a licensed appraiser reviews your home’s current value alongside our planned basement design to provide a projected future home value based on current market conditions before construction begins.
This allows you to better understand potential value before moving forward, using professional insight and realistic assumptions.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Timelines vary based on size and design, but most complete basement finishing projects take 4 to 5 weeks from start to finish. During planning, we discuss your priorities and schedule, and when timing is important, we plan and coordinate the work to keep the project moving efficiently without compromising quality.
-
Yes. Interior design services are provided with every full basement project to help guide layout and material selections, with all options and costs reviewed before moving forward. Our interior designer will propose a design plan that either creates a cohesive look flowing from your main living space or introduces a new style for the basement, depending on your preference.
-
Yes. We handle the permitting and inspection process with the city as part of our basement projects, so you don’t have to manage that yourself.

-
A well-designed, professionally finished basement can add usable living space and long-term value, often retaining a significant portion of its construction cost, with the potential to approach or exceed that cost depending on the home, design, and market conditions.
We also offer pre-project appraisal options for homeowners who want a clearer picture before moving forward.
-
The cost of a complete basement finishing project depends on the size of the space, layout, and finish level.
As a general reference:
Smaller or simpler basement projects often range from $25,000–$40,000
Mid-range basement projects commonly fall between $40,000–$65,000
More custom or high-end finishes may exceed $65,000, depending on design and features
Final pricing varies based on finished square footage, material selections, and added features such as bathrooms, wet bars, fireplaces, or custom built-ins. Larger basements with simpler selected finishes can still fall within lower ranges, while smaller spaces with more custom design elements may fall into higher ranges. Many of our projects are fully customized and exceed these ranges when more complex design choices and elevated finish levels are selected.
We provide a detailed, itemized estimate after an initial consultation, with pricing based on actual measurements and a clear outline of what’s included—not generic per-square-foot pricing. Each phase of the project is carefully planned and calculated to ensure accuracy and transparency.
-
We use a milestone-based payment system with no down payments. Payments are made only as specific phases of the project are completed, so you’re paying for work that has already been done.
The first payment isn’t due until materials are ordered, delivered to your home, and construction has begun. Payments then follow major project milestones, which often align with weekly progress. The final payment is not due until the project is fully complete and you’ve completed a final walkthrough. All payment milestones are clearly outlined before construction begins.
