M Squared Companies is a local, family owned and operated business that has been serving Northeast Ohio since 2016. We have over 28 years experience in all facets of concrete work and carpentry services. Call today for a free estimate!

"We had our driveway extended and while the price was reasonable and it initially looked great, the quality quickly went downhill. Two of the three new squares started chipping badly not long after the job was done. The top layer is flaking off in multiple spots, even using a leaf blower sends pieces of the surface flying. When I brought it up, the response was that it could be from salt or possibly from not sealing it correctly, even though we were told it was sealed. He offered to come back and reseal it but said he wouldn?t touch the damaged concrete itself. Since then, I?ve spoken to a few other companies, and every single one of them said if their work looked like that, they would stand behind it ? even if it meant replacing it at a loss or just asking the customer to cover materials. That?s what taking pride in your work looks like. I take a lot of pride in how my home looks from the street, and now I?m stuck staring at a patchy, crumbling driveway. It?s frustrating."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Medina, OH

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.
