"We were extremely happy with the service, installation and quality provided by Pella of McMurray. We dealt with Rob Culbertson. Rob was superb to deal with in many aspects. I highly recommend selecting Rob to handle your needs. The installers were professional, respectful and diligent. They worked hard under cold conditions. They were cognizant of their cleanliness too and swept up frequently. The fiberglass windows and doors look great and I examined them thoroughly. My neighbors have been complimentary too. Try Rob Culbertson and Pella of McMurray for your needs."

"We hired this company because we were starting to get cracks in a basement wall that was moving slightly. The first guy, the estimator, said they would stabilize the wall and if all the drywall is taken off they will also seal the cracks while they are there. They came out early March to stabilize the wall and those guys said they will not do anything to the cracks since they were only there for the stabilization, not waterproofing since that was a separate package. Ok, no big deal we have never had any water issues so we weren't concerned, everything seemed fine. Fast forward a month and the first big rain storm- there is now water coming in from the corner of the wall they 'fixed' and another wall. We called them and they sent someone out. That guy said that's a completely separate issue, has nothing to do with the work they did. There is also now white mineral growth coming up around the bottom of the concrete footings they installed for the beams. I get that we did not hire them for water issues but that is because we didn't have any until after they did work on that wall. I hired them because I felt like they were going to treat us fairly and fix my home. I was confident that by hiring them my house would be safe and structurally sound when they were done. That ended up not the experience I had with this company. And now after spending thousands of dollars I have even more issues than I started with and will have to spend even more to fix the new problems."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Richmond, KS

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.
