"We had Steve Phillips from Matrix Basement out to our home this evening. Steve was very polite and professional. Took the time to view our basement space, gave good insight and suggestions of what layout options would work best. Along, with drawing out the layout for us to visually see. Steve answered all of our questions. We look forward to working with Matrix Basements and having our basement space finished for our family to enjoy."

"Eric (owner) and Russ were great!  Eric gave me a quote and generally seemed interested in the job and me as well.  I received quotes from other companies, and they treated me like a number and did not seem interested in even doing the work.  Ultimately, Eric and Russ were able to complete the work on time and it looked great.  The pricing was within reason based on what was completed and the quality of work. <br /> I would recommend to anybody looking to finish their basement or remodel home! <br /> I feel bad for the delay in this review, as I stopped my Angie's List subscription and forgot to leave a positive review. <br /> <br /> <br />"

"Mat removed part of a supporting wall between the living room hallway and kitchen creating a nice open airy feeling. He then removed another wall and closed off a stairwell leading to the basement. Installed a new hardwood floor where the stairs were to enlarge the eating area in the kitchen. I am planning to completely remodel the kitchen in the spring and plan on having Mat do the work."

"My service tech, Jordan Foy, called promptly in the morning and arrived right on schedule. He was friendly, knowledgeable and did a great job installing my sump pump and the underground line. He made sure I approved of what he was going to do each step of the way. He was also very nice to my golden retriever puppy who wanted to be his assistant. I will be using Ayers Basement Systems again for additional work on my basement next spring."

"The crew did a great job on our home. They took the time to do it right, they were professional, with a keen eye for detail. There were unforseen issues with the house, which was taken care of without so much as a bat of the eye. In final, they lived up to and surpassed my expectations. I would Definately hire them again"

"I originally purchased the deal to install a doggie door in my basement door but needed additional work done also.  Tim contacted me and we discussed the doggie door and since he couldn't fit in the whole days work for quite a while and I needed the doggie door within 2 weeks, he told me he could fit me in for the doggie door but he would have to put me on his waiting list.  So here we go, right off the bat I had to pay for the doggie door separately because he had no time in his schedule for some time to fulfill a whole days work (got the $299 for a whole day)  After you purchase it, you find out that it is only for 6 1/2 hours of work or 3 1/4 hours if 2 guys are working on it.  When he came, he started the work but was having issues getting it all the way in.  So he pulled the door back out after working on it for a half hour and brought it up to show me what the issue was.  I asked him if he gave it all he had to push it in and he said he would try again.  Seems he had no problem getting it in after that.  So good he got it done, but con he wasted time taking it back out and putting it back in when he could have had me go down there to look at it.  When he arrived, I asked if he would have time to put together an entertainment center I had just purchased and found that it was way over 100 lbs so I could not assemble it like I thought I could.  He said yes but needed his helper.  After installing the doggie door, he started getting all the parts arranged and completed it when his helper finally arrived.  Tim did a good job so happy about that part of it.  Then scheduled him to do the baseboard to use my deal for the whole days work.  He arrived and set up the saw and got started and then his helper arrived and they completed the work. I was pleased with the work. <br /> Though Tim's work is good.  I was a little put off by his comments about his pricing.  He is a lot more expensive than other companies and he made some comments to defend his pricing and also talked about another client though he didn't name the person, of course.  Tim does a good job and he is overall a pleasant fellow, but I was disappointed with the overall value. <br />"

"They gave me a great estimate. They were prompt and they brought a plumber that gives them a double "A". I talked to several neighbors who have used them, they do depend its work. They were extremely professional, extremely timely. They were just costly and heavy for me though. If I were to use them, I think the job would be absolutely outstanding. I have 3 neighbors who've used them and I've seen the work they've done and it was outstanding."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Battle Creek, MI

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.
