Edna_robbins124 E. says, " We started the job with a master bathroom remodel. We were so pleased with the outcome we continued the remodel by redoing the wood floors and recessed lighting. Next, we got smooth stucco in a nice clean tan color. We are currently looking at kitchen options with AGA. Working with the AGA team was painless and worry-free. AGA is a professional company that cares whole hardheartedly about their customers, and are real remodel enthusiasts. They are excited for you, and want your dreams to come true. We especially liked our experience with our project manager, Ilan. He was friendly, attentive, and on top of his work. Ilan has a lot of construction experience, so it was very easy to discuss our options with him. He had all the answers with regards to pricing, designs, and what is possible. Although remodel and construction projects tend to be a headache on the home owner because of the ruthless and deceiving attitude of most contractors in the LA area, Ilan truly made this a hassle-free process. We were referred to AGA from a friend, and we are extremely satisfied with the company. We will continue to use AGA for all our remodeling needs." 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?

We had a stellar experience with AGA construction. They were quick, provided great service, and the quality of the work and finishes is very professional, sturdy, and straight. They gave us a 3d layout of our bathroom and our kitchen. This made it very easy to visualize and decide exactly which way we wanted to go. AGA has great design ideas and suggestions. Furthermore, they have great vendors and got us some great pricing. We will continue to use AGA construction and we highly recommend them!
