"We are delighted with the work and experience we had with Turner Builders. From start to finish the communication was perfect and the attention to detail was beyond our expectations. Bob made sure that his crew delivered quality work and if at any time the work did not meet his expectations, he had them fix it. The work was completed in a timely manner and they worked around weather conditions to keep the process moving. Honestly we cannot say enough good about our experience. Highly recommend."

Locally owned and operated ,we pride our selves on doing quality work at fair prices ,with the upmost professionalism and dedication to making home owners dreams come to life ,all while staying efficient and budget friendly. Let’s get it started today ..

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Great Experience with Lightning Remodel We recently hired Lightning Remodel for a tile project, and they exceeded every expectation. What started as a straightforward tile job quickly revealed some incorrectly installed plumbing, and Buck went above and beyond to fix it so our project could stay on schedule. His professionalism, skill, and commitment to getting the job done right were evident every step of the way. Buck and his team tiled our bathroom, closet, and laundry room, & also installed hardwood flooring in our kitchen and butler’s pantry. The craftsmanship was exceptional across the board. They kept the job site clean, communicated clearly, arrived on time, and navigated every curveball our old house threw at him with patience and expertise. Working with Lightning Remodel was a pleasure. They will be our very first call for any future home projects. Highly recommend! ***Photos to come***"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Dry Ridge, KY

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.
