"I am so thrilled with the work. The transformation to my basement was amazing. Rob does excellent work. I would highly recommend Rob. His rates are fair, and he is honest, reliable, conscientious, and clean. His sub-contractors were very good as well as his assistant. I am in the process of scheduling Rob to remodel my master bathroom in a couple of months. I would highly recommend Rob and his company, Be Blessed Remodeling."

"I could not be happier with the result of my bathroom remodel. Randy Korn takes his time to pay attention to detail and the result is perfect. Randy Korn and his son is most courteous and professional, very neat and tidy and his prices are very reasonable. I will definitely hire him for all my projects in the future and recommend him to anyone seeking quality and professional service"

"Mostaed Listened to what I wanted and the results were amazing g and better then what I had expected. His crew is amazing - working fast but very efficiently and often showing me a better way to improve my design They were very talented and workmanship was top notch. My new bathroom is beautiful and better than I ever thought. They have also remodeled my basement- which is now totally amazing - they did a though inspection of the walls - found leaks and replaced/ added insulation- which I never would have known about. The room is so much warmer now and looks beautiful. I am definitely having Mostaed do more remodeling to my home. He is dependent , listens to all your ideas- no matter how crazy and works with you to find the results you want. I would definitely recommend him to remodel any room in your home"

"From my very first phone call, Tim was extremely helpful and eager to assist, clearly explaining the process and answering all of my questions. Jim visited first to assess the project, and I explained that the work would involve remodeling an existing built‑in furniture unit and transforming it into a functional home office. He fully understood the scope and offered practical input based on his experience. Jim completed the work on time and to a very high standard, with excellent attention to detail and overall quality. The transformation from the original built‑in to the finished home office exceeded my expectations, both in terms of craftsmanship and functionality. It was a pleasure working with Tristate from start to finish, and I would not hesitate to highly recommend them."

"Mike and his team were AMAZING!! After several experiences with sub par contractors we finally found one that explained the entire process, kept the project with budget, and finished on time and completely. The entire team had excellent customer service and excellent craftsmanship. Our basement remodel included excavating, full bathroom, and a legal bedroom with additional living space. Every person on his team was outstanding! They even put up with my senile dog who would bark the entire time, and also sing along with my daughter to sponge bob while they were working. In addition anytime we had a question or a concern they would always take the time to explain. After a few weeks we started to consider them family. Hire these guys!! They will not disappoint! :)"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Kettering, OH

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.
