"We hired Jakubek Remodeling after getting quotes from several other contractors to completely remodel our basement. They were the most attentive, detailed, and professional. We were happy to see that Robert and Dawid maintained their top tier service level throughout the life of the project. The Jakubek team worked quickly and skillfully, and were all very respectful while working in our home. The final product is beyond our expectations, and it was really stunning to see them turn our dream into reality. The best part of working with Jakubek was the transparency as the project progressed, and clear and consistent communication from day 1 until project completion. We are very happy that we selected Jakubek to transform our basement, and overall it was a very positive experience."

"We contacted Jeff regarding our master bath remodel after reading excellent reviews on Angie's List and those reviews did not disappoint. We found Jeff to be very meticulous and responsive. He and his son, Max, did an excellent job and their workmanship exceeded our expectations. Jeff was very accommodating with any changes we asked for and they kept the work area very clean. We would definitely recommend Jeff and Max. We look forward to working with them on our next project."

"First I asked Salvador Garcia with High Quality Painting LLC to paint our laundry room and the living room. His sons Luis and Emilio were so reliable and did such a perfectionist job, showing up every day on time, that I asked them to do the remodel of our main bathroom. We are so pleased with the attention to detail and careful work they did with the tile and floors, bathroom fixtures etc. They came for 12 days straight, which I so appreciated since we only had a 1/2 bath besides the one they were working on! We replaced everything in the bathroom and it's now the best room in the house! I would highly recommend them for their professionalism, high standards and reliability."

"Jeremy did a fantastic job with our first floor remodel. We had a vision of what we wanted to do and Jeremy offered many more professional ideas to make our first floor completely upgraded. He always kept us updated with a timeline of tasks and made sure the plumber, electrician and painters were all scheduled to get their work done on time. He only works with the best! We are so impressed, we asked him to remodel our 2nd floor as well."

"Jerry remodeled my basement last year before I sold my house. Also painted living room and dining room and replaced light fixture. He and his partner were courteous, hard-working and neat. They did a great job. My house sold in 3 days-I think partly because of the good work Jerry did."

"For an ~ 20 years old, 3 level deck, which is for a 12 unit owner occupied condo building, the first level stringer anchors failed. Tim (project manager) was very responsive and informative in helping to come up with the most economical solution to repair the first level, in addition to taking care of the basement and second level stairs to prevent a similar failure from happening until the entire deck is replaced. Slightly more expensive than other estimates received, but the responsiveness to questions, customer service, and quality of work / clean-up far outways this slight increase in cost. Very pleased with the overall experience and would definitely have them do similar work in the future."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Wood Dale, 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.
