"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."

"John and his worker, Ramy, did a great job with a complicated major renovation project that completely gutted two adjacent rooms (Master Bath and Laundry/Half Bath), rearranged the walls, plumbing, and wiring in order to create a beautiful and much more efficient space than what we had before. The project included pocket doors, barn doors, a shower, vanity, creating new closets, installing cabinets, removing a window and stacking a washer/dryer. We couldn't be happier with the work. The crew was very professional throughout the project and proactively contacted us to discuss issues that would inevitably come up regarding the design or just having to take care of sick kids. I would not hesitate to hire them again and highly recommend them for any remodeling projects."

"Robert Cowell and sons did a complete overhaul and remodel to kitchen. This even included changing the layout from what the cabinet company had designed and has worked out great for my family. Our kitchen is a definite statement piece, as people walk in the house and one of the first comments we here. Would definitely hire again and plan to, for other upcoming home projects."

"Amanda was really very good!  At first I was very skeptical, thinking why did I pay money to just speak with someone on the phone about my kitchen remodel project... but after just a few minutes of her addressing some of the issues/questions I emailed to her earlier, I knew it was worth it.  It was very clear that she knew her business and she gave me several ideas that I had not even thought about.  I told her that I would definitely recommend her to friends and I will very likely use her again myself for my next home project!

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.
