"It went great. We got 4 estimates before making a decision and are so glad we went with Creative Basements. From the first time we met with Creative Basements to show them our unfinished basement and what our plans are, we truly enjoyed working with them. They are professional, stayed within budget and provide us a very beautiful basement. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to have a quality finished basement at a reasonable price."

"We couldn't be happier with the basement remodel that Rick and his team did for us. We had a couple of other bids on the job and what drew us to Rick was his dedication to stay on our job from start to finish, without bouncing around to other work and leaving us wondering when it was going to get done. Not only did it turn out better than we ever imagined, but they actually came in under the timeline that they gave us! It was a pleasure getting to work with Rick on ideas and he took input and got everything we wanted done accomplished. Thank you!"

"The men of MWR did a fantastic job on my master bath remodel. I had started the job myself 2 years ago but lost the physical ability to complete it after just doing the demo of the old shower. tub, and tile floor. MWR was actually willing to come in and complete the job for my wife and I. Many contractors will not do that for you. I wanted a high end steam shower kit installed and they did that as will as a new vanity with marble top. They removed and sided over an existing window and added a new window where we wanted one. They also added seamless vinyl flooring that my wife and I prefer over tile or wood. My wife and I are very satisfied with their work. So much so they are rebuilding our back deck and re-siding our home."

"They remodeled one bathrooom back in 2019 and I had them do another bathroom and work in the kitchen. The tiling is perfection! They pay attention to detail, are conscientious about clean up as well. Also, they were able to work very fast!"

"We used All About Your Home to do some interior repairs ( ie Repairing toilets, faucets, re-grouting, securing towel rack, etc). When I first reached out to Vince he immediately answered my request and was able to come out the same day to review the repairs needed. All repairs were concluded within a few days. My husband and I were so impressed with his high level of professionalism. He did such a great job that we will be using him again in the near future."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Gainesville, GA

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.
