We have the experience and we are committed to providing quality workmanship and superior customer service on all our applications. Jason's Renovation LLC strives to maintain our reputation as a high quality, very service oriented company with our main focus being on customer satisfaction.

"I hired Jason to do two interior build-outs. He was pleasant to work with, a clear communicator. The work was done on time, was the exact price he quoted, and the results were exactly as promised, if not better than expected. He's now my go-to guy for all my house projects, including the dry rot repair he just started on yesterday. It's nice to know I have "my guy" I can call for all my house stuff!"

Family owned and Serving the Kansas City Metropolitan area since 2001, We have over 28 years of experience in the home improvement industry. We take pride in doing the job right and offer up to a 3 year warranty for our work! Whether it's a small repair job or a custom remodel, we can handle any task with ease. We stand committed to get the job done with highest quality workmanship a priority. Our values focus on honesty and integrity and we are owner-operated so you will never have to hassle with salespeople. So call us at Tarantola Remodeling the next time you need an experienced, local professional to handle all of your family's home improvement needs. We look forward to hearing from you. *We Finance and accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express.

""Basement - Remodel" doesn't really cover it for our project. We added a great room, a bedroom, and a bathroom. In other words, about half a house. I can describe the Tarantola crew's knowledge and execution, both collectively and individually, in three words: "Attention to detail". I grew up in and around commercial and residential construction and I've done some of every one of the jobs required of Tarantola for our project. I was trained to be 'picky', so I am 'picky'. And, I can honestly say that I am not only happy with what they have done, but also proud of what they did and how they did it. Since the late 80's I've built and/or remodeled homes across several states around the country. And, over time, as those projects unwound, I became increasingly convinced that the work ethic that I grew up around was dying, if not dead. Well, I'm happy to report that we here in the KC area have at least one example to prove that there are still people in the business who care."

"We love our basement finish from Empire Remodeling. They did a wonderful, quality job at a great price. I probably talked to 5+ companies for bids, and used Empire Remodeling based on their plan, price, and the recommendation of a friend who used them. They worked with us at every point of the remodel, and they were patient with us when changes were necessary during the remodel process. Thank you for our wonderful family living space!"

"In the beginning I was impressed with Mike and his ideas about our project. I trusted Mike and his abilities to work with my family. We hired Mike to complete a our basement but it s been one thing after another and us being the christians we are we supported and provided grace to Mike but we were taken advantage of and that is unfair. We dealt with missed timelines and excuses after excuses and we cannot wait 3 months for a project that was small to be completed and continued to wait. Weeks without communication and limited follow up. The subs on the job had been amazing and I hope that they received the compensation they deserved for working in our home. I m completely heartbroken over what this has done happened to my family trying to improve our home."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Lees Summit, MO

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.
