"We were looking to get our old deck torn down and a new one put up with a roof over the top. The quote we got for our project was very reasonable. Throughout the whole process he and his team were very meticulous in making sure the build was done right. They were very friendly and kept a pretty clean job site and didn't litter our yard with construction material. Every step of the way I was impressed with their work, their speed and their professionalism. "

Emergency services offered

While we specialize in Kitchens and Baths, in addition, we can remodel any room in your home, from finishing out a basement, to turning your attic into a loft, to a full room addition to expand the living space. As far as exterior work goes, we install doors, windows and decks as well. If you just need a repair, or maybe just a temporary fix to "hold you over" until you're in a financial position to carry out your dream project, we also offer those services at a reasonable rate. We have found in the past that these are great opportunities for you to get to know us, and also to sample our service before moving on to a larger project.

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Elwood, KS

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.
