"Adam did a great job on our basement remodel, which included installing drywall and laminate flooring and lots of trim work. He had great attention to detail and work was completed on time. Highly recommend."

"Wally & his crew were very reliable. They were usually earlier than they said they would be at our house. They installed interior doors, recaulked my tub & refinished my wood floors & installed new trim. They also fixed a bedroom ceiling that was water damaged & painted it.I will hire them again in the future. I recommended them to my neighbor."

"Mike and his team were referred to me by my real estate agent and I only heard good things about them. Communication through the whole process was perfect and we set up a time for the guys to come over and paint the place. It is a 2b/2b apartment. Prior to that I received an estimate from Mike and we discussed what paint colors I want and when the team showed up ready to start painting everything was bought and ready. Every day guys would do the work and clean after themselves and put things away where they were and always put their tools away to the dedicated area in my place. Everything was smooth and painless. I was amazed at how professionally everything was done. When everything was painted I didn't have even a slightest touch up work left that needed to be done. The pain looks amazing, my apartment was clean after the guys left and I didn't even need to move the furniture or participate in the process at all. Mike and his team are my go to guys if I ever need to paint anything again! Highly recommend!"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Midlothian, IL

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.
