"Jerry remodeled my basement last year before I sold my house. Also painted living room and dining room and replaced light fixture. He and his partner were courteous, hard-working and neat. They did a great job. My house sold in 3 days-I think partly because of the good work Jerry did."

"JT Remodeling finished our 1100 sqf. unfinished basement a few weeks ago. My wife and I chose JT Remodeling mainly because they gave us a very reasonable estimate, while other companies we talked with gave us outrageous estimates... Tomas and his helper, Daniel, showed up at our house on time every morning for four straight weeks. Each day, they gave us a progress report and their planned projects for the following few days. Everything went exactly as they promised and planned, and I know itâ s difficult to do so in a construction field. They missed their deadline only by â one dayâ and itâ s because it took longer than they expected for paints to dry on the walls (because itâ s winter now)... My wife and I changed our basement renovation plans slightly at several locations. Tomas and Daniel were very flexible and creative to accommodate our new requests... Even though their initial estimate was very reasonable, they stick to the promise and respected our budget. They didnâ t go even a penny over their estimate... We are now very happy with our newly renovated and beautiful basement. And, without hesitation or exaggeration, we would like to recommend JT Remodeling to anyone who is looking for a reasonable priced and professional basement renovation (that will go on time!!!). Thank you Tomas, Daniel, and Gabriela"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Itasca, 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.
