"Marvon took down a wall so we could remodel our kitchen and replace d windows. They did excellent work and was very easy and polite to work with. Very reasonable priced as well. I would recommend them if anyone is in need of remodeling."

"Workers on time. Did not finish first day due to rain second day they did not arrive until late after another job to seamed hurried. They were careful not to cause a mass inside but I had a day's cleanup in the basement. Works pleasant."

"We had a great feeling from the moment we met John during our consultation and, even though Promax was a little more expensive then our other options, we chose Promax because John was just as excited about the project as us and we knew we would get great quality.  The original estimate for completion was three weeks, but it took two weeks and two days.  The last two days were only needed due to a design decision delay on my end.  If I had made a decision earlier, I feel confident all of the work would have been completed in 2 weeks.  <br /> Promax does most of the work themselves, but they do sub-contract for some of their services.  Geno was in charge of our project and he did an excellent job communicating when people would be here and any changes/updates that needed to occur.  Every single person who came to our house was friendly and professional.  Everyone cleaned up after themselves and they dealt really well with our two cats and our two small children, who were here for the last two days of work.  <br /> Promax is not necessarily the least expensive option, but I believe that you get what you pay for and the quality of work that we have is amazing.  We get so many great comments on everything that has been done and we have a lot of people ask us for contact information.  I am hard pressed to find one piece of the renovation that is my favorite, but the 7 foot wide barn door that Promax built and installed is truly stunning and quite the masterpiece of our basement.  <br /> I would most definitely recommend Promax to anyone who needs renovations done and when we plan any work in the future, I know exactly who we will call first."

"The floor was beautiful. The only thing we were not prepared for was that there was dust that got all over the rest of the basement. Other than that, they were all super nice and the floor was beautiful. We would definitely hire them again."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Stewardson, IL

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.
