"Doug Fox and his Wolverine team are the best! They created two gorgeous bathrooms in our home. Doug gave us a fair timeline and a budget, and came in perfectly on both. He is thorough, extremely knowledgeable, and always on top of things. John and Tim were amazing at their work, always kind and ready to answer questions and offer suggestions when asked. Thank goodness they steered us to great paint choices, even though they would have honored whatever we asked for. Errick is a fantastic painter! What we really wish is that we could just have the whole house remodeled and upgraded now, with Wolverine doing all of it! After we save up for a kitchen remodel, we will be in touch with Wolverine to set up the job months ahead. Can't wait to work with Doug and his team again!"

"They are professional and thorough, but there is really no wiggle room if you would like something differently done. Choices in booklet are pretty basic, not a lot of options (for flooring types, door style, trim) This company is like the Anderson Windows of basements. (No doubt they spend a lot on advertising; There is a reason they are the top result when searching!) Expect to pay quite a bit more than you planned, but I knew if I chose them it would be done and warrantied for everything. Sometimes you just want to sign and not worry, and I would definitely pick Finished basements plus if you are in that situation and have the budget."

Customers say: Quick response

"We recently had our basement remodeled by Al and his team, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. The project included finishing the basement along with adding a bedroom and a full bathroom, and the entire experience was excellent from start to finish. Al and his team were professional, trustworthy, and incredibly detail-oriented. They offered honest opinions throughout the process, which we truly appreciated, and helped guide us in making the best decisions for our space. Their attention to detail and craftsmanship really show in the final product. The project was completed within a tight timeframe, and they were very accommodating to our schedule. Anytime we had questions, minor issues, or wanted to make changes, they addressed them quickly and were always responsive to calls and texts. We highly recommend Al and his team and will absolutely be using them again for future projects."

"It was a steady process. Of course there were hiccups along the way, but with Renaissance & myself working as a TEAM on this project, everything was done & done well. I do believe that is KEY on any project, especially one of this size. I told Jamie at the beginning of the project that communication was VERY important to me. Jamie was quick to address any questions or concerns I had. He picked up my calls every time. I will hire Renaissance Restoration for all home improvements and/or updates."

"Lucas was able to install a bathroom fan for us, install a vanity, paint our basement ceilings, install lights in our basement, and complete a closet install in our upstairs bedroom. This work was completed within a timely manner and Lucas was responsive and communicative throughout the entire process. He was very thorough in his work as well."

"Artistic Construction (AC) completed two relatively small bathroom remodels. In one bathroom, the shower door was replaced with a frameless Euro-Style glass door. The shower door opening was not perfectly square, but AC was able to get the right custom measurements so that the door would fit. The door looks great! In another bathroom, AC replaced a shallow bath tub with a deeper soaking tub. They were able to match the existing ceramic tile and replaced all the plumbing and electrical fixtures. The bathroom looks brand new!"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Salem, 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.
