It’s no secret that one of the main reasons people in Wisconsin choose to finish their basement is to add usable space for the entire family. We all know the weather is cold in winter up here and having more space for everyone to spread out is crucial. Your basement already exists in your home so updating is much simpler than other options.

There are so many options when it comes to adding specialized rooms to your basement. Each design can be customized to fit your lifestyle and needs. You can add a wet bar for entertaining guests, a full theatre with surround sound, or a home gym for fitness enthusiasts. And for our musical clients, we can even add a full recording studio in your basement. The options are truly endless and limited only by your imagination.

One option that many clients leverage is the ability to add another bedroom in the basement. This is nice for guests or for a growing family that could use one more bed for older kids to sleep in. Plus the bedroom can be completely customized to fit your needs.


With the addition of proper egress, your new basement can be added to the official living space of the home and increase the overall property value. If you add a bedroom and bathroom, these also have major impacts on the value of the house if you choose to sell it someday. Estimates vary widely on the ROI for bedroom and bathroom additions on home value, but the range is often between adding $10,000 - $30,000 in home value or more!

Luxury Remodels & Simple Updates

We Do Both

basement remodeling Waukesha, WI

Whether you’re a client with a massive budget and want a custom design or you have a modest budget and want simple updates to your space, we’re the contractors to get it done. We can help you install new flooring to an unfinished concrete floor and we can help frame in more storage space for all your belongings. Add some drywall, paint, and possibly a drop ceiling, and you can have several new rooms on a modest budget. 


The first step is always an evaluation and inspection to see what you’ve currently got in your basement and what the best budget would be to achieve your dream outcome. 


What Extras Come with A New Lower-Level Basement Project?

The answer is only limited by your imagination, the space constraints, and your budget. Our team can customize the look and feel of any lower level to perfectly fit your wants with our unique design-build process. Many people can DIY some aspects of the remodel project, but can they tackle it all? Our team coordinates and plans everything from the electrical, plumbing, HVAC, permitting, moisture removal, load bearing walls and more. Plus, we handle framing, drywall, paint and trim at the end to give it that perfect touch. 

Here's some examples of types of spaces you can add to your basement area:

Kids Play Room

Need some extra space for your kids toys and gadgets? We can help provide a separate area to allow them freedom and keep all their items separate from the main living areas.

Add a Bathroom

 If you’ve ever experienced the frustration of having every bathroom taken by another family member, this option is speaking to you! The increased home value might even be able to completely pay for the addition.

Add a Bedroom

This option is fantastic for resale value because people are always looking for more bedroom space. With our design aspect, your bedroom will actually be considered a bedroom on the inspection and evaluation of the home. We don’t cut corners or try to cram a bedroom into a space that’s not truly made for it.

Entertainment & Bar Area

Looking for a fresh new space to entertain family and friends? We can help add a wet bar or a full kitchen in your basement area with a TV and entertainment system. It’ll be a small get-away space for everyone involved!

Home Gym

 If you’re a fitness enthusiast, it’s nice to be able to get in a solid workout even on busy days. You don’t need to hike out to the gym and spend that extra time traveling. Plus, your home gym is open 24/7 whenever you need it (even on Christmas morning).

Upgraded Laundry Room

If you want that tranquil space you see on Pinterest for your laundry room, we can help provide that! With so many Wisconsin homes having laundry areas in the basement, this is a no-brainer. We’ll upgrade the entire space to make the “work” of doing laundry feel more like fun!
