"They are professional and thorough, but there is really no wiggle room if you would like something differently done. Choices in booklet are pretty basic, not a lot of options (for flooring types, door style, trim) This company is like the Anderson Windows of basements. (No doubt they spend a lot on advertising; There is a reason they are the top result when searching!) Expect to pay quite a bit more than you planned, but I knew if I chose them it would be done and warrantied for everything. Sometimes you just want to sign and not worry, and I would definitely pick Finished basements plus if you are in that situation and have the budget."

"It was a steady process. Of course there were hiccups along the way, but with Renaissance & myself working as a TEAM on this project, everything was done & done well. I do believe that is KEY on any project, especially one of this size. I told Jamie at the beginning of the project that communication was VERY important to me. Jamie was quick to address any questions or concerns I had. He picked up my calls every time. I will hire Renaissance Restoration for all home improvements and/or updates."

"Clark builders did a good job! Of course most of it was done during the pandemic when supplies were low or out of stock. We’ve been happy with the work they’ve done and would recommend them to anyone looking to build new home!"

"Matrix Basement Solutions paired my husband and me with a skillful field foreman named Contonio (Rico) Hill. Rico provided excellent service. He made sure Matrix Basements met all of our needs with exceeding expectations. From start to finish, if we asked any questions during the way, Rico provided detailed answers and made sure our understanding was clear. As first-time homeowners, our experience with this company was a pleasant one. Rico made any doubts we had along the way vanish because his knowledge and expertise made us feel as if we made a great choice with using this company for our first significant project, our first home. If possible, I would highly recommend using this company and request Contonio (Rico) Hill as your foreman. He treats your home and project as if it was his home. Thank you, Matrix and Rico, for providing excellent customer service. We would recommend this company to anyone considering a significant renovation in their family home."

"NorthStarr was a real pleasure to have on our basement project. Everyone of the workers were respectful, quality conscious and friendly. They were here everyday and worked hard when they were here. I know the neighbor across the street have made favorable comments of the workers consistent attendance. She said she would hire your company if they needed to have a project completed. We felt totally secure with them here. We gave them a code to open the front door if we were not home. Some more on quality the team consistently worked hard to ensure quality was built in. I did part of the basement, so I know how hard that is. A couple of examples: The one putting in the fireplace was constantly planning/checking to ensure the fireplace was even across, no place with small tiles and the angels on the edges lined up. There is no way I would have been able to do that. The wall between the cabinets had a bow. They asked what we plan to do with that area. We said install a back splash. They went the extra mile to ensure the surface would suitable for that. The layout of the cabinets they plan and executed on having square level cabinets and to ensure the same distance between the top and bottom. Again, that is no easy task. The bar sink we bought had plastic threads in the drain. The team has not had good luck with that so they went and bought a metal basket to replace the plastic part. The team was always looking for the best way to do the job, not the easy or fast way."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Burton, 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.
