"I am a repeat customer, first they replaced all may windows and sliding glass doors with all triple pane - AWESOME job! They just fixed my upstairs 2nd floor exterior deck supports - main boards that went into house under outer wood panels had started to dry rot - very dangerous, replaced deck supports, outer panel, painted everything to match exterior paint and I'm a very happy camper! Just like a plumber, mechanic or even a dentist, a great contractor you can depend on is a treasure! Won't go wrong with 84th Street Construction!"

"I’ve had this company do a huge home remodel, a condo remodel, hot tub install, mother-in-law dwelling remodel and a number of other projects. My absolute “go to” for anything. Never found a problem that couldn’t be solved. I’ve recommended them to friends who all have done remodels, small jobs and even a rebuild after a fire. Ask them for my reference and call me directly if you want. I can’t say enough good about Butch and his folks. Superb!!"

"We highly recommend GP Construction. Their customer service and work ethic is outstanding. All the guys who did work on our kitchen remodel were courteous, professional, knowledgeable and skilled. They cleaned everything up really well at the end of each day and were very considerate of our having to live among the construction. Marty was our project manager. He works hard to make sure everything is done to his high standards, and he is very patient with new ideas and changes. He is amazing! We will be using them for all future projects."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Chugiak, AK

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.
