"First let me say Thank you. My bathroom came out perfect. I replaced the 22 year old tub/shower to a shower, toilet, vanity, light fixtures, removed the medicine cabinet and making it a wall. I also had water damage to a wall that they repaired. I chose to buy my own parts, light fixtures, paint, shower, toilet, vanity, and flooring. They worked with me on what parts, size, and dimensions I would need. There was never a lack of communication either through phone call or text. Very easy to get a hold of and if I left a message a return call or text was quickly returned. They listened to what I wanted and stayed within my budget. The job was completed in the time they told me it would take, which I felt was timely. Everyone was very nice, friendly and respectful. They were upfront about everything, what I was quoted was on target, and no surprises at the end when it came time to pay. This was my first time having a remodel done and I got what I asked for. My experience was positive and when it comes time for the second bathroom and the house flooring to be done I will be using them again. I would highly recommend using Infinity Construction."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Lewiston, CA

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.
