Matt T. says, "We originally brought Chris with Fix to Finish Co. in for electrical work—he installed 2 new breakers in the panel, ran new circuits, and wired up two light switches. Everything was done cleanly, safely, and you could tell right away he knows his stuff! After seeing his work, we had him take on a bunch of other projects around the house, and that’s where he really stood out. It’s rare to find someone who can confidently handle multiple trades at a high level. He installed sliding closet doors in three bedrooms, put in our kitchen cabinets, mounted an over-the-range microwave, and installed a dishwasher without any issues. On top of that, he handled our plumbing projects by installing a new water main shut-off valve and new toilets in each of the bathrooms. He even took care of the soffit and fascia repairs. Everything turned out great! Thank you Chris for all of your hard work and great attitude!" Read more

Your Basement Remodeling questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on HomeGuide.

How much does it cost to remodel a basement?

An average basement remodel costs $25 to $65 per square foot or $12,500 to $37,500 total with labor, depending on the size and scope of the project. Common basement remodeling jobs include:

  • Adding or upgrading a bathroom
  • Turning an unused space into a bedroom
  • Adding a home theater room
  • Adding a basement kitchen

How much value does a basement remodel add?

Remodeling a basement has a 65% to 70% return on investment (ROI). The exact value a basement remodel has will depend on the changes made and the square footage.

When selling a home, the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) separates the above ground square footage from below grade square footage. Above ground spaces are worth about twice as much as lower-level rooms.

How long does a basement remodel take?

A basement remodel takes 3 to 8 weeks on average, depending on the size and changes made. The following factors may increase the project timeline:

  • Materials on backorder
  • Demolition
  • Structural changes
  • Mold or water damage mitigation

What’s the difference between remodeling, renovating & finishing a basement?

Some use the terms remodeling, renovation, and finishing interchangeably, but they're technically different from each other:

  • Remodeling means to change a room's appearance or function. Common remodeling jobs include adding rooms or walls.
  • Renovating means to restore a space to its original condition, not changing structures or adding rooms.
  • Finishing a basement means converting it from bare concrete to a livable space with walls, windows, and floors. 

Do you need a permit to remodel a basement?

Yes, you need a permit to remodel a basement. Building permits cost $500 to $2,000 when structural changes are involved. Permits make sure your changes are done properly and up to code. Remodeling without a permit is risky and can negatively impact your home's resale value.

How do I hire a basement remodeling contractor?

First, search our list of basement contractors, then:

  • Compare multiple estimates from companies with 5+ years of experience.
  • Browse reviews on HomeGuide and Google.
  • Confirm that they're licensed, insured, and bonded.
  • Beware of the lowest quotes, which can result in low-quality work.
  • Ask for a written estimate and contract before work starts.
  • Only make the final payment after the project is completed.

What questions should I ask basement remodeling contractors?

Ask these questions to help find the best basement contractor:

  • How much experience do you have with remodeling basements?
  • Can I see pictures of past remodeling projects?
  • How long will this job take?
  • Do you offer a warranty for your work?
  • Does your estimate include materials, labor, and cleanup?
  • Will you hire any subcontractors?
  • What unexpected costs can come up for this kind of project?
  • Will you handle any necessary building permits?

Reviews for Columbus basement remodelers

Recent success stories from people in the Columbus area.
Tracy A.
Fix to Finish Co. did a great job at my home! He removed and installed several outlets throughout the house, installed a new faucet, and took care of some drywall repairs. Everything was done neatly and professionally, and he made sure it was all working before he left. Chris was easy to work with, explained things clearly, and the quality of his work was excellent. I’d definitely use Fix to Finish Co. again and would recommend him to anyone needing home repairs.
