Basement Finishing for New Construction Homes

Many new homes in Utah County are built with unfinished basements, leaving a large portion of the home waiting to be completed. Remodelaholic can help you finish that space so your entire home is ready for your family to use and enjoy.

Whether you are preparing to move into a new home or have already moved in, we can help plan and finish the basement to complement the rest of the house. That can include additional bedrooms, bathrooms, family rooms, home offices, storage, entertainment spaces, and custom finish details.

Whenever possible, planning the basement early can also make the construction process easier. We can help coordinate the layout, electrical, plumbing, lighting, flooring, cabinetry, and finishes so the basement feels like it was designed as part of the original home rather than added later.

Having a complete plan before construction begins helps reduce changes, delays, and unexpected costs during the project.

Basement Design + Build

One of the advantages of working with Remodelaholic is our design + build approach.

Instead of designing the basement separately and then trying to figure out how to build it, we look at design and construction together.

During the planning phase, we can evaluate:

Room layout
Existing plumbing locations
HVAC and ductwork
Ceiling heights
Window and egress requirements
Electrical and lighting locations
Bathroom placement
Storage needs
Doors and traffic flow
Finish materials
Construction budget

These decisions can have a significant impact on both the finished space and the cost of construction.

Our goal is to identify potential problems during planning rather than discovering them halfway through construction.

Basement Bathrooms

Adding or remodeling a bathroom is one of the most common parts of a basement finishing project.

Depending on the existing conditions, a basement bathroom may require plumbing modifications, concrete excavation, shower or tub installation, waterproofing, tile, ventilation, electrical work, cabinetry, countertops, and finish plumbing.

We coordinate these different trades so the bathroom works with the overall basement construction schedule.

Basement bathrooms can include:

Walk-in showers
Tub/shower combinations
Custom tile
Vanities and countertops
Powered mirrors
Bathroom ventilation
Recessed lighting
Storage niches
Linen storage

Bedrooms, Family Rooms & Flexible Living Spaces

A basement can add a significant amount of usable living space without changing the footprint of your home.

We can help design and build:

Basement Bedrooms

Create additional bedrooms with proper closets, lighting, electrical, and code-compliant egress where required.

Family Rooms

Turn an unfinished basement into a comfortable gathering space for movies, games, entertaining, or everyday family life.

Home Offices

Create a dedicated work-from-home space away from the main living areas.

Exercise & Recreation Rooms

Basements can provide excellent space for home gyms, playrooms, game rooms, and other flexible uses.

Storage

Good basement planning doesn’t eliminate storage. We look for opportunities to incorporate closets, mechanical-room storage, built-ins, and other organized storage areas into the design.

Custom Basement Finish Carpentry

Finish carpentry can make a basement feel much more intentional and custom.

Depending on the project, Remodelaholic can incorporate features such as:

Built-in shelving
Entertainment centers
Accent walls
Custom closets
Mudroom-style storage
Wall treatments
Custom bunk beds
Trim details
Decorative carpentry

These details can transform a basic finished basement into a space that feels connected to the rest of the home.

Our Basement Remodeling Process

1. Consultation

We start by looking at your existing basement and talking about how you’d like to use the space.

2. Layout & Design

We develop the layout and identify important construction considerations before work begins.

3. Scope & Estimate

Once the design and project requirements are established, we develop a construction scope and estimate.

4. Permitting & Pre-Construction

When permits are required, plans are submitted and the project is prepared for construction.

5. Construction

Construction typically progresses through demolition when necessary, framing, rough plumbing, HVAC, electrical, inspections, insulation, drywall, trim, tile, flooring, cabinetry, painting, and finish work.

6. Project Completion

We complete final details and walk through the finished basement with the homeowner.

How Much Does It Cost to Finish a Basement in Utah County?

The cost of finishing a basement can vary considerably depending on the size of the basement and the scope of work.

Some of the biggest factors affecting basement remodeling cost include:

Basement square footage
Number of bedrooms
Number of bathrooms
Plumbing locations
Electrical requirements
HVAC modifications
Ceiling conditions
Flooring selections
Tile and bathroom finishes
Cabinetry and built-ins
Finish carpentry
Existing conditions
Permit requirements

A relatively straightforward basement with bedrooms and a family room will have a very different construction budget than a basement containing multiple bathrooms, extensive custom carpentry, a wet bar, or major mechanical changes.

Rather than relying only on a price-per-square-foot number, we prefer to understand the actual scope of the project and develop a budget around what you’re trying to build.

Basement ADUs & Basement Apartments

Some homeowners want more than additional living space and are interested in converting their basement into an accessory dwelling unit or basement apartment.

ADU projects introduce additional considerations involving layout, kitchens, entrances, fire separation, parking, utilities, and local zoning and building requirements.

Because these projects have different requirements from a typical basement finish, we’ve created a separate resource specifically for homeowners considering this type of project.

Why Work With Remodelaholic?

Remodelaholic Design + Build approaches remodeling from both a design and construction perspective.

We understand that a good basement isn’t simply a collection of framed rooms. The layout, lighting, ceiling conditions, materials, mechanical systems, and finish details all have to work together.

Our goal is to develop a clear plan before construction begins and then coordinate the different trades necessary to bring that plan to life.
