"American Legacy just finished putting in a new bathroom in our basement and we couldn't be happier. Alan gave us an itemized quote and worked within our budget. He was also quick to recommend ways we could save money. All the work was done ahead of our target date. Alan is a pro who communicates and listens well. This was our first time hiring a contractor for a project like this and we couldn't have made a better choice. If you're looking to hire a contractor then we highly recommend American Legacy Contracting. In a day when you've got to be selective of who you can trust, they are a breath of fresh air!"

"Brian did an amazing job finishing our townhome’s basement. We needed help with electrical, HVAC, drywall, and so much more. He did it all! He was very punctual, professional, and detailed in his work. Got everything up to code for us, and helped install our home theater with in wall surround sound speakers, a mounted TV, and all the wiring to the AV receiver. When we had some guys come in to do the missing and texture, Brian also helped with translating for us, since he speaks Spanish. He also was very clean and our dog loved him, which is unusual lol. Excellent service and will hire him for larger projects again! Would recommend for any home projects!"

"We hired Chad Balls to finish our basement. Chad was excellent to work with. He had a clear vision of what we wanted and how to accomplish it. He was patient with us while we made decisions and worked hard to make our vision come to fruition. He is great with communication, We always knew what would be happening next and when tasks would be completed. Our basement looks amazing! I would highly recommend him for any home project."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Payson, UT

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.
