"We had Darren manage our kitchen remodel and he did an amazing job. He installed our butcher block counter tops and they are GORGEOUS. Darren also did our patio cover which we love so much! He also found our painter who did a fantastic job. We will always use Darren for any major home projects - he’s the best!"

"Berry Construction did an amazing job helping us to recover from a major flood caused by a plumbing problem. Randy worked with the insurance company to maximize our claim process. Mike did a great job managing the various crews. Billy helped us to stay within our budget to select fixtures, tile and other essentials. We are very pleased with the results."

"Peter was very fast and always prompt. After measuring on a Sunday, he had the custom door made on Monday. I absolutely love my door. It was custom made and it’s pretty large door! The price was reasonable!"

"Jack's All-American plumbing recommended Amundson's to me, and gave me Sean's phone number. Sean called me back promptly, and came out the next day to look at the shower and give me an estimate. <br /> The shower needed to be fixed promptly before mold got out of hand, and we also needed to get the shower out to see the extent of the problem. Sean was booked for the next two months, so he assigned the work to his brother-in-law, Jim. <br /> Amundson's worked very closely with Jack's, so that the plumbing and shower installation were coordinated and time wasn't wasted. <br /> Sean will work with you to keep the project within your budget and as close to the estimate as possible. <br /> We came out pretty close to the estimate. I'm not sure that it would have fit anyway, but I couldn't see putting the old shower door back on my spiffy new shower, so I bought a new shower door, and I bought a remnant of vinyl flooring and had Jim put it in for me. Both upped the final cost a bit, but they were completely worth it. <br /> I am very happy with how my bathroom turned out. <br /> Sean and Jim are caring, honest, nice, professional. They do what they say they will do, when they say they <br /> will do it. Jim does excellent quality work, and I am happy to recommend Amundson's and will definitely use them again for the future projects that we are now planning. <br />"

"He ended up doing some extra work to make it all work correctly and didn't charge me any extra. <br /> Kevin was very easy to work with. I emailed when I found them on Angie's <br /> List and they answered me promptly. None of the others responded to my <br /> email. I did find another company that was a little bit less expensive, <br /> but he was difficult to get in contact with and then wasn't available on <br /> Saturday. <br />"

"Angel was responsive to my inquiry by email. Came out for an estimate to install stock cabinets, counter top and sink as well as all the plumbing. The day he was scheduled to come to install he called me to explain he had made a mistake on his estimate and wanted to talk with me first because he said he would not just come to do the work then tell me, this was for $20.00! that impressed me a lot. He was so careful of my home protecting the area he worked in he did a quality job! He was efficient an organized."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Paso Robles, CA

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.
