Nicole A. says, "George, Marcos and their crew are amazing. This was our second time working with them and both times they made our dreams come true. They just got done ripping up our carpeting and refinishing the hardwood floors underneath. It’s beautiful! Exactly what we wanted. They worked fast and efficiently. George was very communicative - he’d tell us what got done each day and what would be done the following day. I can’t say enough good things about them! Please hire them if you need work done."

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 Jersey City basement remodelers

Recent success stories from people in the Jersey City area.
Lucienne F.
Dkai Contracting, led by George and Marcos, completely renovated my entire house eight years ago, and I still feel lucky every day that I found them. They handled everything—from two kitchens and multiple bathrooms to the deck and so much more—with professionalism, skill, and care. The craftsmanship has truly stood the test of time. Everything still looks and functions beautifully, and I continue to get compliments on their work. They were reliable, communicative, and treated my home as if it were their own. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire them again or recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch contractors. Thank you, George and Marcos!

Mr. A.
They were very professional, personable and understanding of our project goals. He helped us with some design changes of our new home that were pretty ingenious that even our architect hadn't thought of. They were also, very efficient with the building process from start to finish. We did have some delays due to weather and change orders but, they kept to the original schedule almost to the "T". Their pricing was very fair and inline with the other contractors we interviewed. We decided to go with Pioneer over the others because, we felt he was the most sincere, trustworthy and really wanted the best for our project and family. We made the right decision and I would recommend them 1000%!!!
