"Jordon and Cam were awesome to work with and our new basement is amazing. We had never hired a contractor before so we were nervous about hiring someone. Wright Brothers took the time to answer all questions, and we had a lot of questions. There communication during the job was great and our new basement exceeded our expectation. The initial price they quoted was exactly what we paid, with the exception of a few upgrades we requested after the project had started. We have already referred several of our friends to them and cannot say enough good things about them."

"Can't say enough about Jim Ruffin and his crew. They did a superb job on remodeling our basement, and they were the most recent after quoting several sources. We'll definitely hire them again."

"We had a fantastic experience with CMR Handyman Services. Both the bid and the completion time were as promised. Cesar and his crew remodeled our bathroom, including some structural changes to accommodate a bathtub, and also revised two closets. They were timely, did exactly what they said they would, and were responsive, respectful professionals with an impressive range of skills. We absolutely love our new bathroom and highly recommend Cesar and his team to anyone looking for quality workmanship and dependable service."

Customers say: Terrific value

"Francisco Garcia did an excellent job finishing our basement. The work quality is excellent. The communication and flexibility throughout the project was excellent. The project finished on time within budget with zero surprises. Any concerns that arose were addressed expeditiously and professionally. I highly recommend Colorado Paradise Builders for your next project. The building inspections were coordinated by Colorado Paradise Builders and passed easily. We learned while talking to the inspectors that we had a gift by using Francisco as a general contractor. They mentioned other people in the business may not provide the level of customer service and professionalism which Colorado Paradise Builders demonstrated on our basement finishing project. I could not be more enthusiastic with a recommendation."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Gilcrest, CO

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.
