"Keith did a fantastic job for us. We had a rather complicated project and interviewed several contractors. He was the most responsive and professional. We were very pleased, and have already referred several people to him and would definitely use again!"

"Hire at your own risk. Ride in Contractorwas hire to complete our project in 2 months but 12 months later was still not finished. Ronnie Ridlon blames everyone including the city inspectors for his delays. He did not order materials on time and made many errors his orders. He does not have a working crew; only one experienced worker. The contractor hardly ev err came to inspect the work. The so called cre worked in average 2-4 hours per week hence the project still incomplete. Timake matters worse he is very unprofessional and does not want the customer to ask any questions. He made threats throughout that he would put a lien on our property, which he did do after we decided enough is enough. He was fired."

"We set up a meeting to meet with Sam to review a major remodel for our home. We had to drive 7 hours for the meeting as we are transitioning from a rental property to a primary residence. Sam never showed up and there was no communication that he wouldn't be showing nor any explanation as to why he didn't show up. Extremely disappointed with Aspire homes and Angi's for recommended this company."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Montrose, AL

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.
