"Dave Marshall showed up on Tuesday morning to see what I needed done. He called me with an estimate that afternoon. The guys showed up to work at 10 a.m. on Wednesday morning and were done that afternoon.
The dirt pile was spread over bare spots in the yard. The bigger garden had trees growing in it. They were cut out and the railroad ties moved to where I had asked. The smaller 2 tiered garden was buried under a large pile of retaining wall blocks. The blocks  were neatly stacked where I asked them to be and the garden demolished. All of the areas were down to grade with the rest of the lawn so I can easily seed it and mow it. They even cut the weeds and long grass that was there too. They worked fast and did a fantastic job. I will definitely hire them again.

"Amanda was really very good!  At first I was very skeptical, thinking why did I pay money to just speak with someone on the phone about my kitchen remodel project... but after just a few minutes of her addressing some of the issues/questions I emailed to her earlier, I knew it was worth it.  It was very clear that she knew her business and she gave me several ideas that I had not even thought about.  I told her that I would definitely recommend her to friends and I will very likely use her again myself for my next home project!

"When completing our 26'×36' garage slab, Kate was thorough from start to finish! She was also willing to consult on some of the other aspects for our garage project even though her team wasn't getting to build the garage. She handled the permit and even came out and helped us locate one of the property's survey pins! He crew was top-notch and pleasant to work with! I would highly recommend Kate and Vince and the whole S&S Contracting team."

"The team was prompt and very detailed, was able to pivot and suggest little changes that improved the overall look. They reconstructed a soffit and several bathroom and bedroom walls to enhance the appearance. I asked for non textured ceilings and they are flawless. Great communication throughout the job…I will rehire again in the future!!"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Barnum, MN

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.
