"Very grateful to have found Mike to complete a huge project of gutting and remodeling a home. His expertise in all areas was evident and a lifesaver. He and his crew show up on time every day and they are moving the whole time not a second wasted. The worksite was spotless every day before they left. Mike’s word was as good as gold and he went above and beyond to look out for me, my finances, and the project even when I wasn’t there. This was an old neglected house and Mike had it transformed in a matter of days with walls going up and plumbing going in. I can’t say enough about these guys. Definitely the gold standard."

"I was in a sticky situation. My contractor was unprofessional and was overcharging. John stepped in and worked out a reasonable price. His worker Aaron was respectful and lovely to deal with. I live a little far from Morgantown WV. It was part of the contract for me to always be second, but the job got done. I would recommend. John and Arron were very nice to work with"

"Jason Perry was great to work with. He communicates well. This job involved removing and replacing a very wide, crumbling, set of concrete steps, about six feet wide and four steps tall, abutting two houses, one on each side. Jason was excellent at emailing the owners of both houses, ensuring that both of us knew exactly what he was going to do and how he was going to do it. He started work when he said he would and completed it quickly and professionally. I will gladly hire Perry Contracting for future work."

"They did our basement right before Christmas. They did a fantastic job. They even helped me remove an old well pump that was in the way of their work. They were very professional and punctual. In the picture that shows the Pipe coming down the wall Water use to seep up through the floor there and over in the corner where the sump pump pit is in the corner it would actually run down the wall that is no longer happening. As you can see in the one picture the amount of water that was coming in as they were working was not a good thing as it had not rained in about a week."

"They installed steel beams on a wall that bowed inward in our basement garage after carbon fiber straps we had another company install several years ago failed. We are VERY pleased with the work performed - the workmen were professional and the work was completed in one day as they said. We have a lot of clay in our soil and with all of the rain this year, it placed too much pressure on our wall. Our wall was examined by their engineer prior to install and he explained that the purpose was to stop further movement."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Morgantown, WV

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.
