"Our basement was previously finished in the 1970's, but the quality of the work was not good. We ripped everything out and hired Mark to remodel it. The project included adding an egress window, a 3/4 bath (no plumbing previously), a kitchenette, and an electric fireplace. We couldn't be happier with the way it turned out. Mark offered thoughtful guidance and suggestions throughout the process, and he also gave tips for some of our other home improvement projects that were not involved in this one! The price I listed was for the entire project, not just for Mark's carpentry services."

"Granzow Home Inprovement was amazing, from the initial meeting, to questions or concerns we had, before, during, and after the work was performed. We were pleasantly surprised mostly by the care and concern Rick and Bob took regarding their customer, which is rare in many businesses. This was our first home remodel project, we learned a lot from it, and we love our basement! Keep up the excellent service!"

"I hired JDC Contracting for a full kitchen remodel, along with small updates throughout my house (new lighting, replacement of interior doors, a new ceiling in the basement, bathroom updates, and numerous other things). John did nearly all of the work himself. He did a wonderful job and our house looks fabulous! I can't say enough about JDC. John is skillful, completely accountable, and fair and honest in pricing. Hiring JDC is a a collaborative project from start to finish. He took the time to hear our ideas, provide sound, practical input, and put together a good, workable plan. After discussing things (every step along the way), John turned what we wanted into reality. He's also kind and a pleasure to work with. I really enjoy interacting with him. I had received estimates from two other kitchen contractors. John was the third contractor that provided one. He really impressed me with his attention to detail, his knowledge, his demeanor, and his being up front about process, pricing, and so on. He left a great impression, so I hired him in late November. John transformed the small, enclosed kitchen into an open concept kitchen that's bright, spacious, and inviting. This was the first time that my wife and I were involved in a major remodel. In December, we were so happy with how the kitchen project was going that we asked John to do additional work on the house. We wanted to squeeze in some more work at our house before he got too busy with other customers' projects. The additional work included the door replacements, as well as partial updates of the bathrooms and basement. He is an HVAC expert, so he also gave great advice on how to maintain and extend the life of our older HVAC system and other mechanicals. His advice is saving us a lot of money. John does such terrific, fairly priced work, we would totally have gone with JDC for full updates of the bathrooms and basement, but we didn't have the finances. So we decided to go forward with partial updates that really changed the 2 bathrooms and basement, while allowing us to stay within our budget. We're grateful to John for these secondary projects--and his ideas for them--because they have given us a lot more living space, and have made the bathrooms much more pleasant to use. We recently purchased the home in Oct. 2022 and we initially had a 3-5 year timeline for improving the kitchen, bathrooms, and basements. But John shortened this timeline down to a 2-month time frame (around 35 days of actual work--there were a couple of delays on materials that slowed us down). We moved in a week ago and are loving it! In sum, I strongly recommend JDC for home improvement projects. John is highly skilled and has integrity and tons of expertise and experience. Most important, he genuinely enjoys making his customers happy by improving their homes. He went the extra mile for us and has definitely made my family and me happy!"

"I cannot say enough good things about working with Joel. He was such a help and advocate for my extremely complex deck rebuild on my condo. Not only did he handle all of the city permits and standard work of contractors, he also talked with my condo association, found a company to install special posts that were needed for the situation, and they as super helpful explaining everything to me. As a first time home owner this is exactly what I needed. I will continue to use Joel whenever I can and will recommend this company to as many people as I can."

"Bob and Rick did an incredible job finishing our basement. They were willing and able to accommodate all of our requests and maintained open lines of communication throughout the entirety of the project. Rick responded to all communications very quickly and was always willing to field a call with any questions. From the start of the bidding process through the end of construction, Bob and Rick were always professional and provided guidance and transparency at every step while still allowing us some creative flexibility during the design process. We are consistently getting compliments on the superb craftsmanship of our basement. If you are looking for a professional team, clear and timely communication, and magnificent quality of work, I highly recommend Rick and Bob at Granzow Home Improvements."

"These guys were great! I hired them to install a laminate floor & baseboards in my lower level & they completed it quickly & professionally! I then used them to install a vanity/sink & toilet. Although the my bathroom was not plumbed for this, they were knowledgeable enough to get it done! I will continue to use them for all my handyman needs. Just a couple of nice guys with great talent!"

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Verona, WI

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.
