"I enthusiastically recommend Smith's Designer Construction for remodels! I had them remodel my kitchen in Jan/Feb 2026 and they were great to work with. Tyrone, the owner, is very responsive. If he wasn't able to answer my call, he called back within the hour. He finished the project two days early. He answered all my questions throughout the process, and explained everything to me so that I could understand (I am an older widow). There were a couple of problems with my electrical (the house is 80 years old) and with the plumbing. Tyrone showed me the problem and fixed it. There was, of course, a fee for the extra work, but it was reasonable. The overall cost for the remodel was very reasonable. The workers were polite and professional. They worked hard and did a great job. I was very happy with the final product. My kitchen looks amazing! I have had many compliments! I intend to use his company to remodel my laundry room and make it a combo bathroom/laundry! "

"We hired Paul, Justin and Anthony to tear out and replace our master bathroom shower and floor. They were professional, friendly, clean and their attention to detail was top notch. The workmanship is incredible and the shower and floor are beautiful. They were extremely pleasant and guided us through every step of the process. I would hire them again without hesitation. We highly recommend Diamond Developments!!"

"Matrix was very efficient and kept me informed every step of the way. The project manager John was very good at letting me know if things had to be moved to a different day. The workmen doing the individual parts of the job were also very helpful, offering advice when asked. They also kept the working areas very clean - no dreadful mess to clean up!"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Keego Harbor, MI

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.
