Basement Remodel Pricing

Major Budgeting Considerations

Basements present unique challenges than those you run into with Kitchen Remodeling or Bathroom Remodeling. What’s the #1 component that drives costs for these projects? Size. Finished basements need walls, flooring, HVAC, plumbing, etc. The bigger the area, the more goes into it. Below are other considerations, or main factors that drive remodeling costs.

Your Home’s Age & Layout

A finished basement becomes a comfortable, polished extension of your Twin Cities home. It’s where you can go to entertain, to work out, to work, and so on. All this function will require the systems to make them work. We also have to consider the age of your home, and any repairs that will be required to bring your vision to life within city coding restrictions.

New Basement Features

After the Design phase of your project, you’ll get a selection sheet with every product and material you need to choose – cabinetry, backsplashes, flooring, windows, other aesthetic materials like stone, lighting fixtures, etc. The good news is that we help you make choices that keep your overall project within budget, while keeping systems like gas and power in mind.

Specialty Spaces

What if you want to transform your unfinished basement into your own personal gym? What if you’re a wine collector? Maybe you want to setup a unique workspace or hobby area? The more customization, the more complex your project becomes. While we can create different rooms with the space you have, each will bump up the costs from one wide-open basement area.

Bathrooms

Adding functional bathrooms to finished basements is common, because they’re convenient and add value to the home. That said, the basic requirements of building a basement bathroom and setting up the systems it needs is sure to increase your overall budget. From there, it comes down to product and material choices and the level of luxury you’re looking to achieve.

Electrical & Appliances

Refrigerators. New washers and dryers. Microwaves, and a new sleek bar area for entertaining guests. Mechanical upgrades are often a must-have with basement remodeling projects here in the Twin Cities, but they require power and space and often accompanying custom storage areas. We’ll walk you through every variable step by step, during initial consultations.

Egress & Coding

Egress windows and local coding requirements are often overlooked by homeowners. That said, our owner has been working in residential construction and remodeling here in the area for over thirty years. We know how to get over these humps and challenges, while adding natural light.

Real Project Examples

Basement #1: Smaller St. Louis Park Basement Remodel

What Was Involved?

A More Limited, Or Basic $90K+ Basement Remodel To Create New Living Space

Here we have a perfect example of what we might call a smaller, or more limited basement finishing project here in St. Louis Park. We transformed their dark and damp basement into a finished living space with family room, bedroom, bath and egress window.

Basement #2: Large Basement Remodel Minneapolis

What Was Involved?

A Dynamic Basement Remodel As Part Of A $1M+ New Home Build

This project was large and very complex, as the basement was part of a whole new home’s construction. They wanted, essentially, a downstairs apartment with a bedroom, bathroom, living space with a full bar area, movie projector system, sound system, and a spa. A perfect example of a larger basement remodeling project that requires much more work than a limited finish.

"We recently needed some work done on our home and used Executive Remodeling. The communication and suggestions concerning our project were clear and very helpful. The workmen respected our home, were professional, left the worksite clean, and, when on-site, accommodated our need to be in and out of our home. The project was completed on time, and the costs were exactly as quoted."

Our experience with Executive Remodeling was excellent from Day One! We had our entire basement done, and they were great at helping put together our ideas with what was doable, staying within budget, and turning out a beautiful finished product. All of the trades that came were professional, courteous, cleaned up well after themselves, and did a beautiful job. We couldn't be more pleased and heartily recommend them!

Excellent. Prompt and great workmanship. Very little disruption to our routine, and they cleaned up professionally. Handled the dealings with the insurance company as repair was caused by hail damage. This made the whole process easy. They also brought all the samples to our house for selection which was very efficient for us. Highly recommend Executive Remodeling.

We used Executive Remodeling to finish our basement. As first time homeowners with no construction experience, we could not have asked for an easier process. Workmanship was incredible, everything ran on time, communication was excellent, and we couldn’t be happier with the end product. We would recommend them to anyone, and already have! We will definitely use them for any future projects that come up. Thanks so much to Ryan, Reed, and Katie!

"I can't recommend Executive Remodeling highly enough! From start to finish, they were responsive, communicative, and very easy to work with. They built a bathroom addition for us and stayed on budget and timeline throughout the entire project. All the people they brought in to work on the project were also kind, competent, and efficient. The team at Executive Remodeling went out of their way to ensure that everything went smoothly and the project turned out great!"

1. This was our first big renovation. We weren't prepared for some of the decisions we needed to make before the project started. 2. Guidelines for what was expected of us before the project began wasn't clear, such as selection of: backsplash, lighting , tiles etc. 3. Once the project began, Executive Remodeling gave us a clear timeline with weekly updates. 4. Executive Remodeling staff was very courteous and respectful as were their contractors. 5. They informed us of what they were going to do with construction details i.e. - poly barriers, dust, etc. 6. They also had an excellent cleaning crew who did more than we expected. 7. We are extremely satisfied with the kitchen renovation and we will definitely have them involved in our other renovations.

After meeting with several Twin Cities contractors to find the right fit for our dream home addition, we chose Executive Remodeling because we valued their honesty, experience, and straightforward approach to planning and project execution. The team was easy to work with and responsive. We were treated with honesty and integrity and got an incredible amount of value for our investment. We couldn't be happier with the results.

We emptied out the basement for drain tile then re-installed what was taken out to preserve the investment in our nearly 100-year-old house. Executive’s team was supportive every step of the way. Their optimism and "can do" attitude were helpful as we discovered complications. They got the right craftsmen for every step. We even added a new garden window to the kitchen upstairs, knowing we could trust them to do a great install. We sleep well knowing our wiring is up to code, and we enjoy a great deal of natural light in the basement because of their work.
