Frequently Asked Questions
-
The timeline depends on the scope of work, finishes, and scheduling preferences. An average 800 sq ft basement remodel typically takes about three weeks for framing, drywall, doors, paint, flooring, and trim. Adding a bathroom or kitchenette may add around one extra week, assuming fixtures and finishes are available.

There are a lot of misconceptions surrounding permitting, but here are four elements of the conversation we like to clear up.
Permitting will only help protect your investment. Our government, for all of its flaws, has put permitting into place to protect you from shady contractors looking to cut corners.
Permitting will not cost you anything. We pay a couple of hundred dollars on the avg job to pull the necessary permits, and we are happy to absorb that cost in order to provide the best service and enhance our reputation in the community.
One of the benefits of hiring a licensed builder is that we can pull all of our own permits without you having to do a thing.
Cosmetic upgrades do not need permitting. We are happy to refresh your space without pulling any permits, and a lot of basement upgrades do not require any permits or inspections.

Absolutely! We love unlocking hidden potential in an often-forgotten space.
