"I hired St. Louis Remodeling Pros because I felt they were much more experienced compared to the other companies I called. They designed my basement and built everything we wanted to perfection. Greg explained the permit process, created a plan for permits, completed all phases of construction with local inspections on time. We were very happy with them and highly recommend them to others."

"I live with my daughter Samantha and she hired FRYoung Homes to install a fence in her yard. It was a very challenging project with being on uneven land and tree roots. But FRYoung Homes employees showed up every morning at 7 and stayed thru 4 even when it was 100 degrees. They communicated with us in every possible way! They showed up! Which in that business means a lot!! They cleaned up their mess! And they did a great job! They let me take pictures and videos so I could keep Samantha updated!! I highly recommend them! "

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Cottleville, MO

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.
