Customers say: Quality work

"I would absolutely hire this team again and would recommend them without reservation. Brian and his team did excellent work and were clean, trustworthy and respectful of our home space. He was great at problem solving with me in real time throughout the project, giving expert advice and solid recommendations. It was a pleasure working with this team, and I feel we got a very good value for our money. It might take a while to book these guys because theyâ re in high demand, but definitely worth the wait. Once they get going, theyâ re efficient, responsive and diligent. I highly recommend."

Hello. My name is Brad Robinson and I am the owner of Robinson Construction. I have been installing doors and windows in the Tri-Cities for over 32 years. I am licensed and insured up to 2 million dollars. We are a father and son team. My son has worked with me since he got out of highschool for the last 13 years. It's hard to find someone with enough experience that you can trust but I have seen it all and have done it all. I have worked for larger companies and big box stores for years. Why go though the run around and inflated prices just to have someone with less experience come and booger up your house or have to wait for months because of a mistaken measurement? Cut out the middle man and and save your hard-earned cash while also having the best install available. We give a 1 year warranty and we are not satisfied unless you are. Call us today for a free estimate. 4234083009

"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 Johnson City, TN

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.
