E & J Builders was founded by husband and wife team Eric & Jane Sterken. E & J Builders is dedicated to providing quality craftsmanship, clear communication, fair prices, and a really positive attitude! We know there are many things to consider when choosing a contractor: capabilities, schedule, cost and good communication. It’s important to choose someone you feel comfortable working with and having in your home.

"We did a massive home remodel with Eric and his team at E&J, and they were phenomenal. The scope of the project was bigger than we expected, and we were in over our heads, and Eric helped at each step of the way. He worked closely with our architect and the city inspectors to finish up our beautiful home. I've recommended him to a number of friends. Their bid was well below the others we got, and they really delivered. It was to the studs/new foundation in almost half the house, the scope was across new bathrooms, kitchen, bedrooms, windows, floors, electrical plumbing, attic, roof deck and more. He managed all the complexity and subcontractors. Not only has he stood by all the work to make sure all the details were right, but he's just a genuinely nice and wonderful person who is a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend him and his team."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in San Leandro, CA

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.
