"Everything from quote to finished basement went very well thanks to our on-site project manager Nate and the owner Chris. Once the project started Nate was very communicative about the basement layout and as the work progressed we talked each day to make sure everything was coming together well. Nate and his team were very skilled and accommodated many customizations in our Entertainment room and gym. I would highly recommend Remark Construction for any type of remodel. Our basement build out was larger than normal and the team was very organized and handled all challenges to create a wonderful space for our family to enjoy for years."

"Rod was fantastic to work with. Our neighbor hired him years ago to remodel her bathroom. We saw the excellent quality of work that he performed with her shower. She recommended him to us during our search for quotes. He was very responsive and quickly came out and gave us a quote for the job. His price was very reasonable compared to other quotes we had received. We were having a master bath/shower combo taken out and wanted a new tiled walk in shower. Rod had great ideas and suggestions that fit with what we were wanting while being very functional. We arranged a time for when the job would start and he showed up on time each day completing the task over a few weeks. He and his coworker Jerry were very polite and trustworthy. We had no issues with them working in our home while we were not there. They made sure the bathroom was clean each day and everything was put away since we were living in the space during the remodel. We were extremely pleased with the final product and would recommend his services to anyone in the future!"

NEEDLESS TO SAY AFTER EDUCATING MYSELF ON MOLD AND BLEACH I REALIZED I MADE THINGS WORSE AND I LITERALLY HAD EVEN SPREAD, SCATTERED TOXIC INVISIBLE MOLD SPORES.... AS MY DAUGHTER NEEDED HER INHALER, THEN A NEBULIZER AND WAS NOT FEELING HERSELF I TOOK HER BACK TO DOCTOR OFF AND ON, VERY WORRIED AND STILL NOT THINKING IT WAS " THE MOLD" . THE DR. SUGESTED A JOURNAL OF WHEN IT WAS WORSE AND WHAT SHE HAD BEEN EATING AND DOING AND ACTIVITIES HER ENVIROMENTS SHE WOULD SPEND TIME AT. TURNS OUT IT WAS WORSE IN THE MORNING AND AFTER A WHILE JUST A EVERY DAY THING OFF AND ON.........NEVER DREAMED IT WAS THAT "NORMAL" LOOKING MOLD I SEEN AND BLEW OFF AS NO BIG DEAL, BUT IT WAS DISGUSTING. SO DOCTOR SAYS DO YOU BY CHANCE HAVE MOLD ??? ....YEA, LITTLE NOT MUCH. HE SAID, YOU SHOULD HAVE IT CHECKED OUT...REALLY?? I WAS THINKING, IT CAN'T BE THAT !!!! BUT I SEARCHED AND FOUND A CO TO COME AND TEST IT. THE HELPFULNESS AND EDUCATION THEY GAVE ME ALONE GOT ME THINKING . I SURE HOPE ITS NOT THAT CAUSING THESE HEALTH PROBLEMS IF SO, I AM TO BLAME. THEY EDUCATED ME AND MADE ME AWARE PPL SEE MOLD ALL THE TIME AND DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE DANGERS AND DO NOT REALIZE THE MOST SERIOUS DANGERS.

AFTER A FEW DAYS OF WORK, THEY DID ALL AIR QUILITY TESTING. SEND OFF TO LADS AND I CAN SAY, WE ARE FREE OF TOXINS. FREE OF BAD HEALTH ON"

"Todd did a great job replacing and repairing drywall in my livingroom and basement. It was a tricky job. He did the work as agreed and did extra with the basement repair to make it a smooth transition into the already partially repaired basement ceiling. The quality was top-notch all the way. I am so pleased with the quality of the work, professionalism, and timeliness (on schedule as promised). I will definitely reach out to them first for any future work."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Burlington, KY

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.
