"We considered 5 different contractors for an extensive project finishing our basement.  Wantz was one of the top two contractors we considered.  Pricing was fair and his vision matched our vision.  The biggest decision point for us was that we would have to wait 45-60 days to start and that would have impacted our plans to be finished by the 2013 Holiday season.  Otherwise, there was a good chance that we would have chosen Wantz.  Instead, we went with Brothers Services and have been very happy with the results. <br />"

"<p>Over the past seven years Mr. Fix-it Home Services has performed major renovations and various small repairs on our home.  The quality of work and attention to details were exceptional.  He was able to resolve an issue with leakage around our chimney that a professional chimney service couldn't manage after a year of trying. We contracted Mr. Fix-it after a recommendation from a friend.  Mr. Fix-it has now remodeled the whole interior of our home, replaced the roof and undertaken numerous handyman jobs, always to our complete satisfaction.  Any minor issues with the work were resolved promptly.  He and his team are friendly and courteous.</p>"

"They came in and had to install carbon fiber straps on 2 basement walls as well as a new waterproofing system. They replaced the sump pump and installed an additional sump pump with back-up battery.  They cleaned up and really did a wonderful job. We are very happy with the work they did for us.   We would highly recommend them!"

"We had the entire bathroom gutted and replaced a tub with a walk-in shower (Kohler Salient Cast Iron ...very nice).  Obe did all the work himself (I helped him carry the 200 lb shower base upstairs).  When Obe ripped up the floor he discovered that it wasn't level.  Rather than mess with shims to try and level the floor Obe ripped up the entire floor and replaced to make sure it was level for our 12 x 12 titles (porcelain tiles from Architectural ceramics that look like marble).  It took Obe about 9 working days to complete the project.  I did the painting but Obe did everything else.  We had originally hired Obe 2 years ago to do electrical work on a kitchen remodel and he saved us money by finding a less expensive alternative for installing a microwave over our stove (he is a licensed electrician).  We then hired him earlier this year to remodel our powder room and were very happy with the work he did.Obe is honest, trustworthy, and is a creative problem solver.  He doesn't rush to finish as he is a bit of a perfectionist. He is also very easy to work with...he really wants to please customers and has a great attitude.   <br /> We are so happy with our new bathroom.  It looks beautiful!  I would hire Obe again in a heartbeat, "

"Jim from Windsor was very flexible when the hall bath was added on to the main kitchen job, and when we changed kitchen vendors after everything was all "set to go." Jim was always professional and is just a nice guy to work with. We also used Windsor about 5 years ago to finish our basement. We plan on using Windsor Construction again in the future."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Cumberland, MD

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.
