"professional job, prompt, did everything well. Passow Remodeling has some astounding customer service!! I needed to touch up the ceiling that they had removed popcorn and painted a few years ago for me, but I could not for the life of me find a paint that matched. One phone call to them, and Ryan not only figured out which paint it was, but he also managed to find it for me (it has been discontinued) and gave me enough paint to do my touch-up. I don't know about anyone else, but I have not had customer service like this for years!!! They did not have to do anything, but they went out of their way to make it right for me. Thank you to everyone at Passow Remodeling for bailing me out and making my life so much easier. You will never know how much I appreciate your help!!!"

"We hired Mr. Wichert previously to do a small siding repair.  His grandparents and parents were also in home building/remodeling business and we knew of him through them.  He did an excellent job the first time, so we hired him for this considerably larger job.  <br /> Our home has Masonite siding which tends to degrade over time, and we discovered that it had not been properly applied to the structure initially which contributed to it rotting out.  Mr. Wichert installed the new siding with proper techniques, and he also made some design suggestions which considerably improved the look of the front of the house.  He replaced all of the siding that needed fixing, and painted the entire house for us.  <br /> He also found some additional problems during the repair procedures and notified us of them and the projected additional cost for our approval before following through with them.  <br /> During the work, he also found an additional area that needed repair but he did not charge us for it -- he said he missed it on the initial inspection and therefore would absorb the cost himself.  <br /> The team of workers were considerate and friendly, as well.  We are absolutely delighted with the finished work.  <br /> Mr. Wichert prepared the estimate and contract for us before beginning any work.  He requested partial payment twice during the process to cover cost of materials, and waited until the project was completed to his and our satisfaction before requesting payment of the final balance due. <br /> We will definitely use him for future projects -- replacing the deck next spring and also remodeling our kitchen.  <br />"

"This project went extremely well. We had a "spec" house with poor construction using poor materials. We are retired and were here the entire time they worked. We saw the care and expertise. We were shown rotted places and prepared for extra work to repair the faulty places. They came to work with a good attitude and explained fully what they were doing and showed us why it needed to be done. Our front window had been leaking cold air in the winter. There was a gap on the outside and the window had been installed incorrectly and water had been leaking and rotting out places. They had to take off the window and install it correctly. We should be warmer there this winter. This even involved changing interior trim which they immediately painted to match. We believe our heating and air conditioning costs will go down from these improvements. Our new deck is like having another room added to our house. They used screws to put it together and no more will nails pop out of the flooring. The footings are now sitting on solid concrete instead of the wood stuck in the ground. They were able to create a partial roof to cover a portion of the deck. I think the word create is appropriate."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Saint Marys, 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.
