"Oxshore just finished a lovely deck on my daughter's townhome - the construction was outstanding, but the best part was working with Josiah, who made the whole process easy from start to finish. I'm grateful for his determination to stay within my budget. I would highly recommend Oxshore for its ethical and friendly business practices."

"I had the pleasure of working with Mike, a general contractor for my multi-unit investment property on the northwest side of Chicago. Mike demonstrated a strong vision for how to add value to the property, offering creative solutions (adding livable square footage to the attic unit for a duplex up) that made a significant impact. His attention to detail and ability to identify areas for improvement helped enhance the property's after rehab value, all while staying within budget.

His professionalism and efficiency were unmatched, making the project run smoothly from start to finish. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, skilled, and thoughtful contractor."

Building Family Pride Into Every Project: Creativity, Craftsmanship, and Customer Care are the guiding principles of each project!

"Very nice job building new porch steps, replacing some decking and painting the porch. Frank communicated very well stair options and pricing. Brandon was super friendly and a very good carpenter. My only quibble was that where the stair railing met my columns, the railing was cut perpendicular, instead of round to fit the column. But this is a minor issue, and overall I’m very satisfied."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Hillside, IL

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.
