Planning a basement remodel? Do this first
A little upfront planning makes the project smoother and protects the investment:
- Decide the primary use: family room, guest suite, office, gym, kids space, or storage + utility upgrade.
- If you want a bedroom, plan early for safe egress and permit requirements (city/jurisdiction rules vary).
- Identify any basement problems now: damp smell, past leaks, soft flooring, or recurring humidity—fixing these first prevents redo work.
- Note ceiling height limitations and soffit/duct locations (these affect layout).
- Save 3–5 inspiration photos so we can align quickly on style and finish level.

Basement remodeling that’s planned for Denver homes: comfort, moisture, and clean finishes
Basements are different from main floors—temperature swings, humidity risk, limited light, and utility constraints all influence what “done right” looks like. We focus on practical design, correct prep, and trade coordination so your finished basement feels comfortable, looks clean, and functions the way you intended.
What you can expect
- Clear scope (included items + options + exclusions)
- Layout planning that works around utilities and structural elements
- Moisture-aware material recommendations (flooring and wall systems matter)
- Coordination for drywall, flooring, paint, insulation, plumbing/HVAC needs (scope-based)
- Final walkthrough + punch-list completion
Which basement remodel scope fits your goals?
| Remodel type | Best for | What’s included | Considerations |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basement finishing (core finish) | Turning unfinished space into living area | Layout, framing, drywall, flooring, paint, lighting plan (scope-based) | Utilities/ductwork and moisture conditions influence layout |
| Partial basement remodel | Upgrading one zone (office, gym, family room) | Targeted finishes + storage + lighting updates (scope-based) | Blending new finishes into older areas takes planning |
| Basement bedroom + living area | Guest space or multi-use expansion | Bedroom planning + finishes + closet/storage (scope-based) | Egress and code considerations may apply (varies by jurisdiction). |
| Basement bathroom add / upgrade | More function and convenience | Bathroom build-out + ventilation planning + finishes (scope-based) | Plumbing rough-ins and drainage access affect scope |
Recommendation depends on roof structure, slope, budget, and your goals.

Common basement remodel challenges (and how we plan around them)
Basement remodels go smoother when these are addressed upfront:
Permits, egress, and safety planning for Denver-area basement remodels
Many basement finishing and interior remodel projects require permits, especially when you’re adding rooms, changing layouts, or modifying electrical/plumbing/mechanical systems. Requirements can vary by city and project scope. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2} If you’re adding a bedroom, egress planning is a common requirement, and certain neighborhoods/districts can add design review considerations for egress windows. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
We’ll talk through what applies to your project during the consultation and build a plan that matches your jurisdiction and scope.
Basement Finishing and Radon: A Smart Thing to Check
Radon can be present across Colorado, and both Colorado health guidance and the EPA recommend testing as the way to know your home’s level. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4} If you’re finishing a basement, testing (and mitigation planning if needed) is worth discussing early so the finished space stays comfortable and usable.
Testing/mitigation needs vary by home—verify for your specific property.
