"Jon did an excellent job repairing the trim and water damage on the outside of our home around the windows. He even adjusted the priority list of the project, given our limited budget, to focus on new found damages that were more important to fix. He was fair with cost and upfront on any changes. I will hire him again in the future. "

"Shawn and his crew(s) meticulously renovated our master bathroom. Every piece of the project was done to perfection, overseen by Shawn himself. Subcontractors used were managed by Shawn, and held accountable for their work and quality of finish. We will be recommending to our friends and hiring Marsh for our next Reno."

"We hired BCC for a design contract to renovate our house and detached workshop, and attach the two. The design process was underwhelming, we feel we were misled into the design contract, and Julie ghosted us at the end of the process. We are left with a design we didnâ t ask for and Julie wasted our time and took our money which really hurts because she knows we have a baby on the way. Before entering design, we communicated our budget to Julie, which she countered with a higher but reasonable amount. She also said she would talk to Bryan about our project. We discussed with Julie what we wanted most out of the renovation, some of which she suggested her design would change our mind about what we were looking for. At that point it made sense to enter the design process given the renovation could be done somewhere near our budget. After a month we had not heard from Julie, so we texted asking for an update. We were able to meet with her a week later. Julie shared the blueprint and some pictures of the 3D renders at this meeting. The cost she suggested to do the renovation left us dumbfounded. What was worse was that she asked us what our budget was during this meeting after we had waited more than 30 days to hear from her. The design she showed us she suggested would cost nearly double what we originally discussed. She made critical design decisions without ever asking us or discussing, such as eliminating a bedroom to add living room space. Many of the original goals of the renovation were not included in the proposed plan. We asked to revisit the plan so we arenâ t trying to construct a $950k 2 bdr house in MO that Julie seemed to think was a good idea. At about the 7-8 week mark, Julie texted asking to confirm our budget, again, before discussing whatâ s next. We spoke with her on the phone and she said she would discuss with Bryan what we can do with our original budget. We waited a couple more weeks to hear from Julie, which was longer than what she said, but she stated she was busy doing other bids. In our final conversation with Julie, she essentially told us that nearly all of the goals of the renovation we discussed are not possible with our original budget. At this stage in the process it feels like Julie low balled costs in the initial discussions to sell her design contract. Julie never tried to explain why there was such a significant cost difference between what we originally discussed versus what she quoted us later on. Most of our questions seemed to require input from Bryan, Julie also frequently told us input from Bryan was required, but Bryan never spoke with us directly. She pointed out why the project would be so expensive, but those reasons do not seem to be ones that required her $5k design contract. We expressed our frustrations to her, and suggested we didnâ t understand why the cost of this project should be so much more than what we originally discussed. We may never know as we havenâ t heard back in more than a month."

"We met with Justin and I was very impressed with his professionalism. He said he had done several projects exactly like ours and it seemed easy and we should be able to complete in 8-10 weeks. I have never dealt with a contractor before, but I still knew I should double that estimated time and that was still ok at the time. We met in May of 2023. The project went well for a while. We started in May 2023 and the big stuff got finished in a decent amount of time, but not within the proposed time. Finally, 5 months in to the project, Justin apparently decided he was over it. All communication stopped. There was quite a bit still to do, but I guess he was over it, so we moved on and decided to finish ourselves. I never had a problem as long as there was communication, but Justin is awful at letting people know what is going on with there project. At least he was with mine. He promised things that never happened and never let us know why. I came away with a mostly remodeled basement and some work to do to finish myself, but mostly I am disappointed that Justin/ Legacy could not just do what they said they would or at least tell us why."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Smithville, MO

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.
