"Very satisfied with the end result of our project. The workers were very polite and respectful of my home. We had a 500 Square Foot Living Room Added, bathroom remodeled, new kitchen, new flooring and tons outside including windows, door, siding and roof. It was a lot, thankfully Jamie the owner was there for us the entire way. More than happy to share this review for the next person who uses this companies service."

"We hired Restoration Plus to do a complete gut and remodel of the kitchen of the 1965 era home we bought. From planning layout to picking out materials, Scott, Ryan, and their crew were knowledgeable and professional. The work crews were polite and friendly. Everything was done in the time promised and done very well. We are very pleased with the work and we couldn't have asked for a better team. I highly recommend this company."

"Excellently.  The only delay was from the weather, we had a really wet spring in Michigan.  But they worked though most of it.  <br /> <br /> We are sitting in a room of the addition that "Jack Built".  It is a beautiful space that far exceeds our expectations.  The detail work is something to behold and we are sure we will enjoy it for many years.  <br /> <br /> Following a bad storm thousands were without power, we were without power for nearly a week.  Jack arrived with a electric generator so he and crew could continue to work.  He discovered our basement flooded , he used the generator to plug in our sump pump to empty the water.  He turned on the dehumidifier  and two fans.  His quick action saved us quite a bit including no obvious mold problems. <br /> <br /> We would very highly recommend Jack Duncan Palmer Builders."

"They did a good job. There were some issues with getting them to come back and finish a few items and check things but they did come out and it was eventually all finished. The salesmen were super nice and the workers cleaned up well."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Rives Junction, MI

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.
