"Jason and his team were great! Good communication throughout the entire project, and finished under the time line given. They remodeled my basement and added a bathroom. All of the sub-contractors were very professional and very accommodating to any special requests I had. All in all a great experience!"

"The Meinen crew, including the carpenter and painters performed an excellent job restoring rotted and defective siding and trim. They removed light fixtures and drain pipes rather than paint around them. They were dependable and professional. The home looked fantastic upon completion. I would highly recommend Meinen Homes,LLC to perform you remodel and or paint work!"

"RNR came in and saved the day! Roberta and Ricardo were so patient with my husband and I. We had a previous contractor who left our job without finishing. RNR stopped by, looked at the unfinished project and kept their promise to come back the next morning at 9am. They showed up on time, communicated throughout the entire time and also suggested what was best for our project. The greatest part of it all, they didn’t request money up front to get started. The job was started, Ricardo and his team worked for 2 days from sun up to sun down to get done. The concrete slab was repaired and our shed was built! They took their time and gave us exactly what we wanted, we have already made a list of projects we’re interested in having done early spring. Thanks RNR you’re the best!"

"Matrix completed my basement and we are very pleased with the outcome! The Matrix team were all very personable and professional. Suzanna was always positive and quick with a resolution to any questions or concerns. David and Ron provided professional insight and were on site weekly to manage the trades that were working daily. The supplies were delivered promptly and put in the garage and each trade cleaned up daily before leaving. Mike W. & Brian K. were a pleasure to work with, always early and their excellent workmanship clearly shows. I would highly recommend Matrix for your basement or garage project."

"Joe Timm did an extensive remodel of our 1965 ranch fixer-upper, that included kitchen, 2 baths, great room, 1 bedroom, and den. He was professional and thorough. His price quotes were on-target and reasonable. He was reliable: he called and visited when he said he would. We'll use him again for our unfinished basement. We highly recommend Joe and his work."

Customers say: Super punctual

"Big Dave was a pleasure to work with. In the middle of a bath and kitchen remodel my husband sustained a severe back injury. Big Dave and his guys stepped in to complete the work. They didn't do anything we did not ask for, gave good estimates when we asked for extra things not included in our original contract and made our experience a great one. They created a new wall in the kitchen to hide the tankless water heater, painted it, installed cabinets and a sink. In the bathroom they placed the tub surround, painted and finished installing the vanity. Then we asked them to replace the drop ceiling in a hallway, it was quickly taken care of. We will definitely use them again in the future."

"Dave A, of "Basement REPAIR SPECIALISTS", is someone you should have on speed dial. Dave showed up and thoroughly inspected the areas of concern. After examining the basement area he said he would like to look at the outside of the home. He took his time, commenting on yard drainage grade, gutters, and roof pitch. He said, "he would love to take the Job but he thought we should first take a much cheaper approach to repair our problem". Dave obviously is a man of integrity. We decided to take his recommendations. If we still have continued problems, Dave will be our contractor of choice. It's really nice to do business with a thorough and honest man."

"Jeff and his crew were absolutely amazing! In just over 3 months time, he turned our open/empty basement into something that exceeded our expectations. His communication was impeccable throughout the whole process. He was always kind and patient with us. Jeff put any and all of our doubts at ease with his craftsmanship and expertise. Most importantly, he stayed within our budget! I'd recommend Kettle Moraine Kitchen and Bath to everyone I know. We will use him again in the future and suggest that anyone reading my review does the same. He restored my faith in contractors because he's honest and hardworking."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Grafton, WI

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.
