"Finding good, trustworthy and reliable contractors nowadays is so difficult..I searched high and low, almost like an interview process. When one contractor would seem like a good fit, they would disappear. Another contractor would come along and half the time I wouldn’t get my quote or drawings. I even had a contractor tell me a price without bothering to tell me where my money was going. This was not my experience with Beautiful Basements. I enjoyed the process from start to finish.. Dan, the owner, personally came to my home to collaborate with me and explain ways that would improve the quality of my space while helping me understand why certain ideas may or may not be in my budget. He even told me ways in which I could save money. What a rarity!! By understanding all the facets of my remodel, I was able to effortlessly follow his price structure and why certain things needed to be done.. I’ve never had a company break down a quote the way Dan did; it was impressive. The crew that came into my home worked tirelessly to stick to the timeframe they promised, and they were so respectful and trustworthy. They were also knowledgeable when I had questions and took the time to answer them for me. I enjoyed working with this company so much I hired them to remodel my bathroom. This process went just as smooth and effortless as my first project with them, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the final product. Do yourself a favor and call this company- you will save yourself a lot of time and effort, and you can leave the remodel to the professionals."

"We highly recommend Kramer Custom Remodels. They are excellent, 5 stars all the way. We retained their services for several major, high-end projects at our home. We remodeled our en suite bathroom to create a glamour bathroom, remodeled our kitchen to create a gourmet kitchen and we had them prepare our house before we listed it for sale. Each major project was done on time and within the budget and the finished projects exceeded our expectations. We truly loved and had great pride in our home after they had finished. They and their crew were quiet, neat and prompt. In addition to being skilled, we really appreciated that they spent so much time planning with us before each project started so that we could make our remodeling dreams come true. Their knowledge of current trends and timeless beauty and their ability to bring our visions to life made each major remodel a pleasure. 2016- Bathroom Remodel: new tile shower with glass doors, new granite counter, new sinks, laundry area, cabinets, new tile flooring, painted walls, new lights and fixtures 2018- Kitchen Remodel- expanded entryway, added large pantry, granite and stainless steel sink; refinished and restained hardwood floor, all new soft-close cabinets, large island with granite and large stainless steel sink. Designed and built bespoke bar area with lighting, granite and marble- truly a focal point of the kitchen. New stove hood, lights and fixtures. 2021- What a relief it was to have Kramer Custom Remodels prepare our house for sale. They advised us how we could make our home look its best for buyers. They painted every room, the basement, ordered carpet, and added modern light fixtures, and made our home a showplace. We also used Kramer Custom Remodels for all our landscaping needs, through the years."

"Outstanding! Frank and Steve, and apprentices Jeremiah and Xavier, were terrific. They were committed to making us happy. They worked hard to accomplish everything we wanted, offered good suggestions when there was a better solution, and indulged our changes (we tried to keep them reasonable) as much as possible as the project unfolded. The results are FANTASTIC and their prices were, in my opinion, very good. We got three quotes on this job, and theirs was the lowest by quite a bit, and the workmanship was first-rate. Definitely get a quote from them if you are considering a remodeling project! They are knowledgeable, friendly, resourceful, helpful, considerate, patient, HIGHLY skilled, and reasonably priced."

"I hired Tim's Home Improvement to remodel my kitchen and he and his crew did a great job! Tim's communication on the project was exemplary. Tim kept me informed on everything he was going to do and when he was going to do it. He let me know what phone calls I needed to make to assist in the process. He answered my calls late into the evening and on weekends. His team did a great job of staying on task and was responsive to my concerns. I've never worked with a more proactive team on any home project. I have already hired Tim to do my bathroom remodel and am looking forward to working with him again! I would highly recommend Tim for any home remodel project. He can be trusted to do a great job and stay on budget."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Aurora, OH

Finishing a basement turns unused square footage into livable space and returns up to 70% of what you spend when you sell your home. Beyond that resale boost, you gain a playroom, home office, or guest suite you can start enjoying right away. That mix of daily comfort and solid return on investment (ROI) makes basement finishing one of the smartest upgrades you can tackle.

In some parts of the country—especially lots on swamps, high water tables, or other wetlands—local codes prohibit basements. Saturated soil puts constant pressure on foundation walls and lets water seep in faster than any sump pump can handle. 

If your property sits on waterlogged ground, building on a slab or crawl space is often safer, more affordable, and code-compliant.

Most basements wrap up in four to eight weeks. Framing takes three to five days, with electrical and plumbing rough-ins following over the next week. Add five days for drywall, two to three for flooring, and another week for paint, trim, and punch-list items. 

Delays can happen if materials run late or your contractor’s calendar is packed, so build in a little cushion when you plan.

Whether a finished basement counts toward your home’s official square footage depends on local rules. Many areas only include below-grade space if it has code-approved egress, fully finished walls, ceilings, and floors, plus consistent heating. 

Check with your local assessor or building department before you start; meeting those standards can affect taxes, appraisals, and resale value.

Building codes require a checklist: dedicated heat and electrical service, a code-approved stairway, and at least one egress window or exterior door. Walls, ceilings, and floors must be fully finished and meet insulation, ventilation, and fire-separation standards. If you add a bedroom, you’ll also need a closet, proper clearances, and safe exits. If you change the layout later, be ready to update the space so every new room still meets today’s code.
