"When we hired Power 2, we had 3 quotes for roughly the same scope of work. What set these guys apart were the ideas they brought forward to solve the problems we were trying to solve by upgrading our basement space. The project took about 6-7 weeks total and the biggest delays were really out of Power 2’s hands given it was mostly around sourcing of materials with some resource availability. These guys become part of your family for the period of time they’re in your home and they understand it’s your home. They clean up every day after they’re done, and if they don’t they tell you why. They walk you through the cost of any scope change or additional work you request and they take pride in their craftsmanship. They dont’ just fill holes with calk and putty, they cut things to fit and do things the right way. We passed every inspection with flying colors and Randy and his team really were concerned with making us happy. I’ve already hired them to do another project and I’ll likely have them help me with a few other larger projects down the line. I highly recommend these guys due to their veracity, their quality and the respect they afforded to me and my family (heck even my dogs loved them). 10/10. Thank you guys!"

"Let me just start by saying WOW! Tony and Kevin were freaking amazing and extremely talented at what they do! They just finished our basement remode and the cleanliness and professionalism while construction was going on was out of site. We are and will be hiring them to do remodels on the rest of our home. Canâ t thank Tony and Kevin enough for everything!"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Festus, MO

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.
