"I recently had the pleasure of working with Eric from Preferred Custom, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, Eric was incredibly receptive to my ideas and preferences, working closely with me every step of the way to ensure that my vision for the finished basement was brought to life. Not only did Eric demonstrate excellent communication skills and professionalism throughout the project, but he also went above and beyond to address any concerns or questions I had promptly. His attention to detail and commitment to quality were evident in every aspect of the work completed. Thanks to Eric's expertise and dedication, I now have a beautifully finished basement that exceeds my expectations. I would highly recommend Eric and Preferred Custom to anyone looking for top-notch craftsmanship and exceptional customer service."

"Centennial built my garage with an attached porch from the ground up in the winter. I absolutely love it. The quality of the work was excellent. The staff treated my project like it was their own home. I would definitely use them again."

"I highly recommend Jorge and his team. They did a fantastic job on remodeling my basement that was damaged due to water intrusion. They were very professional, timely and easy to work with. I plan to have team quote a bathroom remodel in the future. "

"Bobby, my Project Manager, coordinated teams for electrical, plumbing, demolition, drywall, tile, flooring, and assembly work. My bathroom remodel was completed with exceptional attention to detail, including updated fixtures, new floor tile, and grab bars. Any concerns I raised were handled quickly and respectfully. The second project involved running electrical wiring to my she-shed and installing new laminated plank flooring in my living and dining rooms. The team found creative solutions that minimized cost and disruption, and the new floors are perfect for my dogs and home office needs. They were professional, punctual, and communicative throughout both projects, consistently providing updates and keeping everything on schedule. I recommend Bobby for any remodeling —his reliability, fair pricing, and workmanship made the entire experience positive."

"This was absolutely the best experience I’ve had with a contractor. The owner and his crew were the greatest to work with each day. Their work and their clean up was above par. From the first meeting, to the design process and choosing materials, I was kept informed each day what to expect and everything was done on time as promised and far exceeded my expectations. I will hire them again!"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Fortville, IN

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.
