"We hired Amuri and the M.A.C. Atlantic team for our shower remodel was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. When Amuri came out for the initial quote, he really listened to exactly what we wanted and made us feel heard. This is one of the reasons we hired them for the project. As other "Big" remodeling companies who insisted on ripping out the entire bathtub or remodeling the whole bathroom. They were able to focus on just the shower, which was perfect for us. The entire crew was polite, respectful of our home, and did phenomenal work. The finished shower looks even better than we imagined, perfectly matching the style and look we were going for. Communication was excellent throughout, the pricing was extremely fair and competitive compared to other quotes we received, and the quality of craftsmanship is top-notch. We've loved working with M.A.C. Atlantic and are already planning to hire them for future renovation projects. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, h"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Salt Lake City, 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.
