"Lo's did a wonderful job on our recent home repairs and remodeling work. Amadou and his crew were a pleasure to work with-- friendly, considerate, on time, fast. Amadou takes time to talk with you about the job to make you feel comfortable about the plans. The work was better than we could have ever imagined, and we had such a positive experience that we decided to re-hire them immediately to paint the exterior of our house."

"This was the second job I had Joshua do. I had some mold problems in the bathroom due to inadequate ventilation. With Joshua's recommendation, he removed the old undersized fan, which was also in poor location. The new fan is quieter and is removing the air more quickly, he also updated the switch and outlet to a GFCI. The finish work on the sheet rock is very good and I am happy with the quality. Joshua was able to get the work done quickly. The only area I rated him down was that the job went over the original estimate."

Customers say: Terrific value

"I received several bids for my fence project. I was quit surprised to learned most are specialized in the fact they only install the fence. They do not stain their finished work. But of course they have someone they can recommend. I have a small retaining wall that needed shored up and completed. They don't do it, but they know someone they could recommend. Well lucky for me I found Micheal. He gave me a fair and reasonable bid for all the work I needed completed. He and his crew worked on my project in a timely manner. I would recommend MSW Remodeling LLC to others. I plan to use Michael in the future for my other honey do list."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Gresham, OR

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.
