"Joe was amazing to work with from start to finish. We had a complicated and logistically challenging dream project, but Joe handled it brilliantly. He and his teams were highly skilled, reliable, and friendly. Joe communicated proactively with us, so we always felt cared for and clear on the next steps. Even when there were the inevitable obstacles, Joe helped us problem solve and find solutions that were even better than our original plan. We are now living in our dream home and recommend Prime Time Custom Homes highly."

"Redfish Builders has been fantastic to work with for the past eight years. Being that I live primarily out of state it’s very important to have a contractor that I can trust to respond to emergencies for my secondary home in Elon. Steven Way, the owner, is extremely knowledgeable and trustworthy on any services I may need done. So much so that he even has a key to let himself and crews into the house to take care of my desires while I’m away. If there are any subcontractors required, Steven is always there overseeing the project. At all times I’m kept informed as to the progress of the job. This is done verbally and with pictures. Upon completion I get a detailed invoice with reasonable pricing. I highly recommend Redfish Builder for any of your renovation needs!"

"There are a couple of ways to get this faucet that we needed to remove. This man did things right, all five pieces of tile removed stayed intact, he was very astute about getting the old minerals off, was very through with the assembly of the faucet (trying to keep it low) and finally he assembled the rest of it so it could be done all at once. I would highly recommend Steve. He’s a keeper."

"Excellent, no problems. My car was new the first year I used the service and there has never been any damage during the transports. The men picking up and delivering the car have always been pleasant and cooperative. Both Ely and Guy at United Transport has been highly responsive to my needs. I would highly recommend this company."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Graham, NC

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.
