"I appreciate when people keep their word on things. I hired Fahey Built Construction to repair some damage to my property. He was there on time, with a great attitude and went so far as to point out things that I had not even considered. He completed the project under time and under budget more than meeting my expectations. And how often does that happen? I am very thankful to Patrick for the work and his professionalism. My wife was so happy, she suggested that we have him take on the bathroom remodel that we have been putting off. So we are. You know how it goes, "happy wife, happy life." Looking forward to getting this project started as well. Peace of mind goes a long way. Thanks Patrick!"

"Ben is the contractor you want to work with. Ben did two projects for us… a kitchen remodel and new foyer, and then a couple years later a bathroom, new closet, wood stove hearth and hardwood floors and paint throughout our downstairs. He is super detail oriented to the point of being almost OCD. Our projects turned out great and on budget. His bids were mid to higher priced but we went with him again because we know we can trust him and the job would be done correctly. Would definitely work with him again"

"I'm very happy with Tri Peak Construction. We had a room conversion which required electrical and framing. Cody did a great job. He was very professional, courteous and knowledgeable. The project was completed quickly and as scheduled, with quality results. The project was done in stages to allow for subcontracted work, and Cody kept our home as clean and livable as possible. I was definitely impressed and would highly recommend."

"Scott and his team did a wonderful job. Any concerns i had were quickly and efficiently dealt with. In fact, we are so happy with the work that we are having Scott and his team perform a major remodel of our house early in 2019. We are adding a second floor to the house and doubling its size. We have every confidence the work will be performed to the highest standards."

"Jeff Bailey and staff did an excellent job for us. The first positive sign was when he came to give us a quote and took his shoes off at the front door. This may seem trivial, but it is very telling. We have had numerous contractors in on a house remodel and he is one of the few who is both respectful and highly professional. He was very courteous and punctual, as well as fast and thorough. We were in a pinch in finding a contractor to install fixtures and hardware in our master bathroom remodel, and do other various jobs for us such as adjusting length of doors, built-in hardware and rail installment, etc. When there were options on placements, aesthetic choices, etc. Jeff asked, he didn't assume and just go ahead and make the decision. In fact he helped us make better decisions than we would have done on our own. He also noticed an alignment problem on our front door, took the initiative, and fixed it at no extra charge. We were extremely pleased. We will definitely use All About Homes for future needs. <br />"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Tahoe Vista, 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.
