"Bakers crew was Eric Davis, Ali Martin and Gage Fegley. These 3 guys were a good team to get the work completed inside and out. They stayed until early evening until all the work was done. They cleaned up all the mess and took it with them. It rained yesterday and I had no water in my basement. Yeah !!!"

"Having bad experiences working with other contractors in the past, I was nervous to hire someone else to perform a much needed remodel to my 15 year old bathroom. Thankfully, I’ve come across Kish and she was able to exceed my expectations. She was very thorough throughout the entire process from start to finish and was extremely on point focusing on the details of the finishings I wanted. I received so many compliments from friends and family! I’m looking forward to hiring her to perform my kitchen remodeling next!"

"Ostrander Construction was by far the best company I have ever dealt with. From assisting with the planning of our addition, to the designing of the blueprints and ultimately building the addition, the whole process was perfect and stress free. Steve was readily available to answer all of my questions and concerns. His employees were proficient in every aspect of building our addition, and prompt on a daily basis. Professionals this great are hard to come by, and in the future I will only hire Ostrander Design and Construction for all of my building needs! <br />"

"They did such a good job that I requested the same installers to come out both of our door installation jobs (Phil and John). They were very polite and talked to you.  They didn't mind me watching them or taking pictures of the work.  They were friendly and cleaned up afterwards.  They did a really good job and made sure all the work was done without mistakes."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Hazleton, PA

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.
