"Marc is the go to person, if you're looking for someone who can tackle any remodeling at pristine quality at a right price point. I was converting a jack and Jill bathroom into two separate bathroom for my family needs, the whole process took me about a month that includes getting the city permit followed by the successful inspection."

Our 5-star ratings all over the internet and our BBB A+ accreditation get people's attention. But here are some other things that out clients LOVE: our warranty, our unusual business model, the fact that 95% of our work is done in-house (instead of subcontractors) or that we never ask for more than 10% down, our straightforward approach (like us costing more than usual, but being worth it), our highly detailed no guessing games quotes and the fact that no matter where our workers are from, you can easily communicate with any of them. There is more, but you get the idea. Call us to find out why half of our business is from direct referrals or from repeat clients.

"Exactly as planned and scheduled. They were on time (even ahead of schedule by a few days) and worked with me on my budget!"

"From day one, I worked directly with the owners. They were accessible, respectful, fairly priced, quick, and did excellent work. Due to the original builder's faulty installation and craftsmanship of 3 large exterior window, excessive leaks became invasive. Windows needed to be removed, framing done again, waterproofing, etc. Rios were problem solvers, got in and out quickly and did a fantastic job. I will use them again for anything home related."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Austin, TX

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.
