"I needed a shower door and grab bars installed. Other companies would not do the work unless a complete remodel. Cransten was fair, and matched my job with Scott Bowers. He went over and beyond to see the work was completed; even after Lowes had ordered the wrong materials for my project. Would definitely use again."

"I would highly recommend Morningstar Construction. Denis was a great contractor and his assistant Allen were a joy to work with. Our remodeling project kept growing and Denis would offer suggestions that were reasonable and often added value and beauty to the house. Before and after pictures say it all."

"We couldnâ  t be happier with our home remodel by Price Builders! The entire team was a pleasure to work with from the initial consultation through the final reveal. They listened carefully to our needs and preferences and provided expert guidance throughout the design process. The project manager and business owner Mr. Price kept us informed every step of the way and promptly addressed our questions or concerns. The craftsmanship and attention to detail in the finished space are truly impressive. Our new home remodeling exceeds our expectations, and weâ  re grateful to Price Builder for bringing our vision to life! Please contact him with any of your home care needs as he will answer or return your call in a timely matter. If I were to rate his business on a scale of 1-10 I would honesty say that he surpasses a 10. Ask for images of our home and you too would agree that his services are impeccable."

"After completion of our bathroom remodel, we now literally give tours to our friends and neighbors. It's spacious and much safer with the ADA layout and new shower concept. Everybody finds the bright new look to be an investment and an enhancement. It adds value but is safer and that's most important. I next plan for my deck to be torn down and rebuilt and will again use Palmetto Renovations only. I have projects and they have expertise."

"We had a disaster at our house. Shower pan leaked and ruined the floors in 2 bathrooms. Avery rebuilt both of them. He was easy to communicate with, had good suggestions and kept everything neat and cleaned up everyday when he left. I enjoyed working with him on this project. He won't disappoint you. Thx for the great job. I will keep him on my list for any future projects. He stayed within the budget which was really a concern."

Right now we are recommending Cheryl to all our neighbors and friends as the only person to use if you want a competent and professional remodel."

"I had carpenter bees drilling holes in my deck and front porch railing. Clarks sent out a very knowledgeable technician that sprayed for the pesky creatures and gave me a lot of information. After the treatment the bees were gone. No more hole drilled into the wooden portions of my home. <br />"

"Working with Construction Specialties of Columbia Inc. was a wonderful experience. Daniel and his team are true professionals. Daniel is attentive, detail oriented, and most importantly honest. His projected cost for the project aligned pretty close to the final tally, which is indicative of Daniel's knowledge of the construction and remodeling field, his attention to detail, and his familiarity and working relationship with community suppliers and individuals in the various trades. Remodeling an old house included a hiccup or two. Though there were a few obstacles, Daniel carefully assessed each situation and provided me with several options for each. He was also willing to listen to alternative solutions, which was particularly important for me as a woman working on this project with him."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in West Columbia, SC

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.
