Sales and service for Murphy beds and home office. We now have stores in Sarasota and Fort Myers to better serve you.

"Miller’s was contracted to completely restore my guest room/office after it was destroyed during Hurricane Ian. Excellent communication throughout the process, working with me to coordinate around other contractors. Quality cabinets, shelving units and Murphy bed. What really impressed me was me needing assistance nearly THREE YEARS after the job and Ian handled my request at no cost. This company cares about their customers and keeping them happy long after the sale is completed. "

"Fabiano and his staff are some of the best people I have ever hired for my home projects. I texted Fabiano yesterday and he was at my home within hours to write me a free quote. We agreed to have the service completed and the guys just left an hour ago. I can’t say enough about the professionalism, timeliness, cleanliness, and just overall end product at a very reasonable cost. They installed crown molding in our master bedroom+hallway, painted the baseboards, and painted the doors/trim. We’ve hired Crown King previously and just as impressed then. I’ve referred him to friends and they’ve been equally happy with the work completed. Thank you Fabiano and the staff at Crown King!"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Cape Coral, FL

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.
