"We love our basement finish from Empire Remodeling. They did a wonderful, quality job at a great price. I probably talked to 5+ companies for bids, and used Empire Remodeling based on their plan, price, and the recommendation of a friend who used them. They worked with us at every point of the remodel, and they were patient with us when changes were necessary during the remodel process. Thank you for our wonderful family living space!"

"Bryce and his crew were top-notch! He called me first thing to get the details of my request (installing a handicap bar in the master bathroom outside the shower). We had a sense of urgency on the timing of completion and I'm 1200 miles away from the home we're the work was needed. He went on site, called me back with the estimate, and had his crew out there the next day! They sent me pictures when they started, and when they were done! They engaged with my dad, who was at the home, feel at ease during the project too! The work is done to perfection and we're so very pleased!!"

Pre-made bars cost $1,200 to $6,500, while custom bars range from $2,000 to $22,500, depending on features. For basic needs, pre-fabricated options are more economical and offer quicker installation. Custom bars cost more but provide exact specifications and potentially higher quality. The simplest and most affordable options are freestanding bar cabinets and bar carts.
A good basement bar size depends on your available space and entertaining needs. Most residential bars range from six to 12 feet in length. Standard bar height is 42 inches, while counter-height bars (36 inches) are more family-friendly. Allow 24 to 30 inches of width per person for comfortable seating and at least 36 to 42 inches of clearance behind the bar for movement. For entertaining, an eight to 10-foot bar comfortably seats three to four people.
Permit requirements vary by location, but generally include building permits for structural changes, plumbing permits for wet bars, and electrical permits for new circuits or significant wiring work. Some municipalities also require inspections during and after construction. Check with your local building department before starting your project, as skipping required permits can lead to complications when selling your home and may void insurance coverage if issues arise later.
