"We needed someone immediately to remove a wall desk area and cabinets for flooring company to continue with installing the floor. Chad came out same day and with his crew made it all happen. Very quick and professional. We are using them for a complete basement remodel. Definitely recommend Ashland Oak for any of your cabinet and home remodel needs."

"I I hired Tyler to clean my gutters and replace a downspout. He and his help finished up in about an hour. Great work, cleaned up after the job, all good! I will be hiring him for other projects I need done."

"Ken came and did our estimate and was very responsive to our needs. We had some new things in our old bathroom that we didn't want to get rid of, and he was able to accommodate that. He removed our old tub/shower, floor, and toilet. The whole project took about a week and looks fantastic. Throughout the process Ken communicated with us and make sure we were happy with the progress. Not only would I recommend working with Ken, we've already scheduled another project with him! Also, his estimate was $10,000 less than the one-day company that gave us the other estimate. "

Small jobs welcome

I have spent the last four years remodeling and constructing new buildings, working for other companies such as Hausmann Construction and Samsung Construction—including on the renovation of the football stadium in Lincoln, Nebraska. I have carried out renovations of churches and schools, as well as basements, garages, bathrooms, and kitchens. Now, I have established my own company, and I am ready to apply all my expertise to grow my business.

"The work went awesome. Frank was always quick to respond to phone calls and requests. He went out of his way to get us moved up in the schedule and even did weekend work to get this one completed in a timely manner. They took great care in setting up and getting all areas well covered and protected from dust. The work was completed in a quick manner and was extremely high quality. Would recommend to anyone."

"Great company to work with! I have a daylight walkout basement and wanted a patio cover installed over the entryway. Ken came out and talked to me about my options, and had great suggestions. The company did a great job of communicating with me about when the job would start, how long it would take, etc. I am extremely happy with the results. The entryway is beautiful, and looks like it's part of the house. Several neighbors didn't even realize we had added a cover to the entryway - it looks that much like the house! Very happy with the quality of the work done."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Lincoln, NE

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.
