Should I finish my basement? What can I do with the extra space?
Yes! Finishing your basement is one of the best ways to maximize all the space in your home while also increasing the overall value. Plus, you can be very intentional about how you increase the usable square footage of your home, with many options being available to you.
An updated basement can provide:
• Extra Living Space: Think family rooms, playrooms, and guest bedrooms.
• Custom Entertainment Areas: Create a home theater, game room, yoga studio, or bar.
• Work-from-Home Solutions: Build a private office behind a closed door or a fun, creative little office nook under the staircase.
• Added Storage: Include custom-built storage to keep your home tidy and organized.
• Rental or In-Law Suite: Turn your basement into an income-generating apartment or comfortable living space for extended family.
What's the value of a finished basement?
Yes! The average return on investment (ROI) for finished basements in the United States is an impressive 70-75%. In some regions, homeowners see upwards of 86% ROI at the time of sale.
The reasons a finished basement increases the value of a home are many:
• Boosts Market Appeal: Homes with finished basements attract more buyers and often sell faster.
• Energy Efficiency: A properly insulated finished basement can slash energy costs.
• Better Appraisal Value: A finished basement can lead to a higher appraisal value during a refinance or sale.
• More Privacy for Homeowners and Guests: Finished basements provided private spaces for parents of young children, teens, and guests.
• More Bang for Your Buck: Finished basements are typically less expensive than other more costly home additions, like garage coversions or adding a sunroom.
Your new home awaits.
What does it cost to finish a basement?
As each of our basement finishing projects is customized to the space you have available and the finishes you select , the cost varies. The investment typically starts at $45/sq ft.
Several factors may influence the cost, including:
- Insulation installed
- Room framing
- Boxing in exposed ductwork
- Roughed in bathroom plumbing
- Pre-installed patio sliders or egress windows
- Finishing touches such as a bar, fireplace, sauna, or steam shower
The average basement that I finished over the course of the last year was around $40,000 to $75,000.
What Is Involved in the Basement Finishing Process?
After discussing your goals and vision, we will draw a floor plan, offering suggestions and considering ways to maximize the market value of your home. Lastly, we’ll provide an estimate for your project and discuss any potential modifications you would like.
Our goal is to get started on your project as soon as possible so that you can begin enjoying your new space quickly. We complete the majority of the work ourselves rather than sub-contracting, and we are present throughout the entire project, always available to answer your questions and keep you apprised of our progress.
