"Communication with Alex was extremely pleasant and not pushy at all like a lot of people, very helpful in helping me acquire the materials I need and they grabbed the ones I couldn’t get. Derek did the remodel by himself and did an excellent job, would absolutely have him come back for more work if needed. I absolutely recommend Cransten to anybody looking for work to be done on a budget."

"Although we did not end up hiring Scott and the Fortune Homes team, we regret every bit of that decision. Our basement remodel project ended up turning into a mess with another contractor we hired. As a last resort, I reached out to Scott hoping he could provide some guidance and support with the mess we had with the other contractor. He was incredibly receptive, supportive, and helpful in assisting us in making the best out of a bad situation with the other contractor. Scott was exceptionally generous with his time with us on a project he wasn't even working. That kind of integrity has him at the top of our list for any future projects."

"We hired Matt and MTD to rebuild the basement at a rental property, after we stripped it down to install a water-abatement system. MTD was one of the more expensive bids, but we were happy that it theoretically included everything (minus a handful of specific items, like tiles and the vanity for the bathroom), and Matt seemed to know what he was talking about, and was someone with whom we could work well. I appreciated his sense of humor. Matt estimated the project to take between 3-6 weeks. It took 6 months! We did decide to have some work done to the exterior plumbing which could (charitably) explain maybe a week's delay. There were also some COVID issues, with some workers not being able to make it, which was reasonable under the circumstances. But the primary issue was the management of the project. Things were done in bizarre and crazy order, requiring drywall to be put up, then taken down, then put up again. Weeks would pass when nobody showed up (it turned out that they were working on a multitude of other projects), or they would show up for a little while, then turn around and leave. We would discuss how we wanted something done, then discover that it was done in a completely different way. Sometimes this was because Matt's communication with his subs was poor, and sometimes it was because Matt would just decide to do something different without talking to us. But often it was just that so much time passed that things were simply forgotten. In the end, the basement turned out quite well. There are a few details with which I wasn't happy, and some out-and-out mistakes that we had to correct ourselves (fortunately my renter was quite skilled). We also ended up paying for more things than I believed we should have (some of this was my fault for not requiring the contract to be more explicit)."

"The final product exceeded my expectations. The quality of the work is such that my basement now looks like it was completed at the time the home was built. The subcontractors were decent people who knew what they were doing. And Mr. Thompson was sensitive to our unique needs and circumstances. I don’t give many reviews, but I strongly recommend this company."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Usaf-academy, CO

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.
