Frequently Asked Questions
Utah Basement Specialists finish most basements 12 weeks after receiving the city’s building permit. However, some features, such as kitchens and theater rooms, can add to the completion time. You will receive weekly updates on the progress of your basement.
Over the last two years (2022 and 2023), Utah Basement Specialists finished 174 basements. The average cost for these basements was $36.74 per square foot. Factors that affect the overall price of your basements include:
- Total square footage- smaller basements cost more per square foot.
- Special features, such as kitchens, laundry connections, theater rooms, and exercise rooms, add to the overall cost.
- We offer a range of floor covering options. Carpet, for instance, is not only the most common but also a cost-effective choice. However, if you prefer a more premium look, we also provide options like tile, LVP, Acid-stained concrete, and laminate, which may increase the overall cost of the basement.
- Additional factors that affect the overall cost of your basement include- lighting, two or three-tone paint, and bathroom finishes.
Yes, that is a very common request, and we’re happy to work with you to meet your budget needs. The most common processes that owners complete are:
- Painting
- Baseboard installation
- Carpeting
- Bathroom finishes
Yes! Every city requires a building permit for your safety and the safety of future homeowners. Building permits are not expensive. The average cost is $500 or less. As a licensed general contractor, we must obtain all building permits and pass all safety inspections with the city. This service is included in every basement project we work on.
Some of the trends we have seen over the past two years:
- Basement Apartments: either for income or to help family members.
- One-tone painting: this saves money and brightens up the basement.
- LVP flooring: durable, waterproof, looks great, and is relatively cost-effective.
- Exterior entrances: either for an apartment or for utility.
- LED lighting: energy efficient and long-lasting.
A few keys to an energy-efficient basement are:
- Insulation: Most newer basements have insulated walls, but few have insulation in the ceiling. Ceiling insulation is a thermal envelope that keeps heat in the basement and has the added benefit of acting as a sound dampener. The only downside is that it is relatively expensive.
- LED lighting: the yearly cost is pennies per fixture.
- Instant water heater: They’re somewhat expensive and require regular maintenance, but they are much more efficient than standard water heaters.
- Energy efficient heating and air conditioning: this is a standard feature for newer homes. For an older home, this may be a great way to make your house much more energy efficient.
