"Jim did an amazing job finishing our basement! Took about a month which was perfect timing being just him and a helper. He kept us in the loop on what was going on and matched the rest of our house perfectly."

Customers say: Terrific value

"Francisco Garcia did an excellent job finishing our basement. The work quality is excellent. The communication and flexibility throughout the project was excellent. The project finished on time within budget with zero surprises. Any concerns that arose were addressed expeditiously and professionally. I highly recommend Colorado Paradise Builders for your next project. The building inspections were coordinated by Colorado Paradise Builders and passed easily. We learned while talking to the inspectors that we had a gift by using Francisco as a general contractor. They mentioned other people in the business may not provide the level of customer service and professionalism which Colorado Paradise Builders demonstrated on our basement finishing project. I could not be more enthusiastic with a recommendation."

"Stonebrook Construction handled a six week project Nov.-Dec. 2025. Tub replaced/Walk In shower installed, vanity, sinks, toilet, flooring, lighting, mirrors, paint, molding. From initial consultation to design to demo to construction to final walkthrough the process was outstanding. Communication with Daniel and his team was superb and nothing was done without home owner approval. Pricing was fair and competitive, invoicing completely transparent with all materials/labor easily traceable. We are beyond thrilled with the final outcome and even more impressed by the experience/process Daniel/Stonebrook Construction provided. Highest recommendation for any home improvement/construction project."

I’ve been in the construction industry for well over 10 years I’ve mastered in different trades and as of right now I’ve been building high end pole barns and barndominiums. I’m located around northern Colorado and more south I also travel to Cheyenne Wyoming. \n\nI specialize in structural framing, laminate flooring, tile, drywall, pole barns. \n\nI treat my jobs like if I was building it for me. I pay attention to details on the projects I do.

"Drennen fixed a faulty radon system in our home. They took a look at what was going on and were very straight forward and honest in their approach. Every employee from the office manager to the installers exhumed care and professionalism at every step. They were extremely pleasant and kind. It was very evident that they cared about their customers and doing the job right. They also installed a radon mitigation system for my elderly father and the first thing he said when I talked to him was how nice the installers were and what a great job they had done. Both of these experiences demonstrate an integrity and honest care that is hard to find these days in any profession. I am truly grateful for Drennen and will recommend them to everyone without reservation."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Drake, CO

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.
