"We recently had our 1,400-square-foot basement finished, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. The project included two bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a versatile multi-purpose space with two kitchen cabinet areas—and everything was completed beautifully. From start to finish, Scot proved to be an outstanding project manager. Communication was consistent and clear throughout the entire process, which made a big difference in keeping everything on track and stress-free. He was also incredibly efficient, ensuring the project moved forward smoothly without sacrificing quality. His crew was a pleasure to work with—professional, respectful, and clearly skilled in their craft. The attention to detail and precision in their work really stood out, from the finishes to the overall layout and functionality of the space. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented contractor. Our basement turned out even better than we envisioned."

"Chris is a fantastic guy to work with! He finished our basement and it turned out better than we could have ever expected. His quote was fair, and he was very receptive to changes throughout the project. He kept us informed of each step and went above and beyond in making sure every detail was perfect. Our basement is now nicer than the rest of our house. I canâ t wait to pay off some of this loan so we can hire him to make the main floor match! If youâ re in the market for a home improvement contractor, hire this guy!"

"Our experience with Matrix Basements could not have been any better! They were an amazing company to work with and the end product was better than we imagined. I fully believe this has so much to do with the fact that Matrix is well organized and professional every step of the way. Every single person we worked with throughout the process was extremely friendly and very knowledgeable in providing us input to make our basement remodel come to life. We lucked out with an amazing field manager, Jim Thurek, who guided us every step of the way. He was very attentive to our needs and questions, which was always reflected in his professional and speedy response time. The management skills of this company is definitely unrivaled and I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a reliable contractor to finish/remodel their basement."

"Unprofessional, untimely, poor workmanship, stressful experience. Shawn did a LVP flooring install on two levels of my house, including the kitchen. Almost $8K for 1K SF. Flooring failed 1st time due to no subfloor leveling despite me asking twice if it was needed. 24 planks in 600 SF were separating in 2 weeks. Once I informed Shawn the floor was failing, his workers tried accessing my garage without permission to get tools. Seemed like they were trying to split on a bad job. Despite the bad job done, I worked with him on cost-effective products to try and save as much money as possible on the rework. Both levels of flooring had issues, but I only asked for main level to be redone. Ultimately, it took 4 months of poor communication and terrible customer service to finally get new flooring installed, still not level but holding????! Ultimately, the new flooring installed was left unfinished, leaving me to install trim, transitions, end caps, stair nosing and caulk on my own."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Yorkville, 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.
