"They were very easy to work with. Jason, the owner, was a really nice guy. He was very easy to talk to, very nice, and very laid back. He did a great job of doing exactly what I wanted with the basement. His crew made sure I was happy when they were done. There were a few things I wanted fixed at the end and they were very accomodating. They were very skilled with their carpentry work and with their paint work. We love our basement!"

"My husband and I needed to have our bathroom and kitchen remodeled. We solicited quotes from 3 contractors and selected Dougherty to do the work. Since my husband and I are both retired we had plenty of interaction with the Dougherty staff and their subcontractors. We were very impressed with their professionalism and the quality of their work. I love my new kitchen and bathroom! Yes, there were minor problems, but we have an old house and went into the project knowing they might uncover some things. Their staff collaborated with us when any issues arose so that we could reach a workable solution. The final cost was within 10% of the original bid, mostly due to cabinet upgrades. We have since contracted separately with three of the Dougherty subs, one for routine HVAC maintenance and the others for a large room that needed drywall repair and painting. I would hire Dougherty again without hesitation."

"Jon and his crew were amazing to work with from start to finish! They listened to what I wanted and made my dreams come true. My parents were having a hard time on their own so I finished their basement into a little house for me and my family to be close to them to help and it turned out exactly like I wanted thanks to Jon and his crew. Donâ t hesitate, hire him today! You wonâ t be disappointed."

"Their manager came to the house and he was very helpful and had some ideas on our kitchen remodel. Before he left he said he would have a quote by next week. I got a call from him that following week and said that our kitchen remodel estimate was running in the mid 40â s and thatâ s not touching the pantry. He asked would you like for us to proceed. I said absolutely and I have heard nothing back from them. So my decision to go with another contractor was an easy decision"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Mechanicsburg, PA

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.
