"The quality of work is absolutely stunning with the best value we found. Did our project for about 30% less than we were being quoted and the quality is better than the builder we used for our home. Absolutely recommend them to anybody looking for a new basement. Ours was complete with full bath and bar area. Fantastic work"

"We highly recommend Kramer Custom Remodels. They are excellent, 5 stars all the way. We retained their services for several major, high-end projects at our home. We remodeled our en suite bathroom to create a glamour bathroom, remodeled our kitchen to create a gourmet kitchen and we had them prepare our house before we listed it for sale. Each major project was done on time and within the budget and the finished projects exceeded our expectations. We truly loved and had great pride in our home after they had finished. They and their crew were quiet, neat and prompt. In addition to being skilled, we really appreciated that they spent so much time planning with us before each project started so that we could make our remodeling dreams come true. Their knowledge of current trends and timeless beauty and their ability to bring our visions to life made each major remodel a pleasure. 2016- Bathroom Remodel: new tile shower with glass doors, new granite counter, new sinks, laundry area, cabinets, new tile flooring, painted walls, new lights and fixtures 2018- Kitchen Remodel- expanded entryway, added large pantry, granite and stainless steel sink; refinished and restained hardwood floor, all new soft-close cabinets, large island with granite and large stainless steel sink. Designed and built bespoke bar area with lighting, granite and marble- truly a focal point of the kitchen. New stove hood, lights and fixtures. 2021- What a relief it was to have Kramer Custom Remodels prepare our house for sale. They advised us how we could make our home look its best for buyers. They painted every room, the basement, ordered carpet, and added modern light fixtures, and made our home a showplace. We also used Kramer Custom Remodels for all our landscaping needs, through the years."

"We’ve been remodeling our house for quite awhile now and to say John was the most genuine and professional contractor that we’ve worked with so far is an understatement. John treated us like family and went way beyond what we contracted him to do! Not only did they do an outstanding job with our basement remodel but he was patient and professional with a little bit of drama that we had during construction when it came to other contractors that he had to work around. I would definitely refer John to anybody who need remodeling done and will definitely use Desborough construction for ALL our next projects!"

"

Great!  They arrived on time, had clear understanding of project, gave true estimate of time and cost.  We were kept informed of any issues and involved an all decisions.  Work was perfectly performed, clean and neat.  They matched existing wood stain, painted well and worked around 20 years of basement clutter without a word of complaint!  All were polite and friendly.

"The answer is in the details. This was a very large remodel and Steve and Frank took care of even the smallest of details. Often over the 9 week remodel I would wonder if they would caulk here... or put molding here... or paint here... etc. And a couple of days later, everything was always taken care of without me having to mention anything. They are very smart contractors and are always available to answer any questions and take care of any additional requests. You can't go wrong with Center Line. Feel free to contact me if you have any reservations or questions or would like to see their work."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Solon, OH

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.
