"We COULD NOT be any happier with Gordie than we are. He completed the kitchen remodel on schedule to the DAY and in half the time as our other quotes. He kept us informed, was meticulous in his cleanup, went above and beyond to configure our kitchen to match our requests, which meant redesigning drawers and a bread board. Our satisfaction was an obvious goal from the start. We CANNOT recommend him highly enough â ¦ Gordie is a GEM! We LOVE our new kitchen!"

"I wanted to build an addition for a better master suite and enlarge my living room. Wolf Creek supplied me with computer generated images of the layout they suggested. My living room now fits all the furniture I want. The master suite checks all the boxes. An organized walk in closet. A beautiful and spacious bathroom and plenty of room around my king size bed. A huge thanks to the team at Wolf Creek. "

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Willernie, MN

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.
