"David Fields with Fields of Dreams Home Remodeling came and was extremely polite. He was able to give a quote that fit our budget. Kept us updated along the way with the project. We had them install recessed lights which all the wiring had to be ran, three ceiling fans and interior house painted. We were very pleased with the work performed and will be using them in future projects."

"He recommend appliances and other things around my kitchen that I really liked. I had an easy time working with him. He will work with you and make sure the job is done right. He even came back and fix a problem at no extra charge. They only negative thing I could say about him is that he estimated finishing time was a little off. I would recommend him."

"<p>I should have known that this would be a less than desirable transaction when I kept getting calls from this man who thought that he was talking to someone else.</p> <p>Typical contractor in this area.  He asked for more money half way through when he was already charging an exorbitant price to begin with because he had to "hire a new guy."  That's not my problem and should have been budgeted for.</p> <p>The city shut the operation down in the middle because he neglected to get the proper building permits that he CHARGED me to get.  He had to clean that mess up quick.</p> <p>They tried to take shortcuts, and employees got mad when I pointed them out.</p> <p>Honestly, they did a job that I'm sure they've never done and were not qualified to do.  Perhaps this would have been different if it was some other sort of work.</p> <p>In the end, we have retaining walls, but they are not installed according to the manufacturer of the stone's recommendations and I would not use this contractor again based on the experience that I had.</p> <br />"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Glasgow, WV

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.
