Utah Basement Finishers did a great job finishing my basement in a timely and affordable manner. They finished everything well above my expectations and treated me like their top client, even though I know they had a lot of other projects they were finishing at the same time that probably would have taken priority over my smaller basement. 10/10 would recommend!

We waited until the last minute to start our basement finish. We need more bedrooms due to another baby being on the way. We had our bid within 3 days and started the basement about 2 weeks later. Austin was great. He helped us figure out a couple of details in the framing that really worked out well. The basement was always clean. What a great team. Utah Basement Finishers completed the basement 2 weeks ahead of schedule which was very helpful. We’re so grateful that they responded quickly and that their bid was fair so that we could finish our basement.

Ideas to consider for your South Jordan, Utah basement finish

For many South Jordan families, the basement is an opportunity to add the space their home is missing. It might become the place where everyone gathers for movie nights, where the kids hang out with friends, or where out-of-town family can stay when they visit. With the right layout, your basement can give everyone a little more room while still bringing the family together.

  • Family Rooms: A basement family room gives you plenty of space to spread out and get comfortable. Set it up for watching movies and sports, playing games, entertaining friends, or simply relaxing together at the end of the day.
  • Game Rooms: A game room can be as simple or elaborate as you want. Add a pool table or ping-pong table, create a gaming area with a large TV and comfortable seating, or leave plenty of room for board games and other activities the whole family can enjoy.
  • Home Gyms: Turn part of your basement into a workout space that fits your routine. You can keep it simple with a few pieces of equipment and an open exercise area or build out a more complete home gym without giving up an entire room upstairs.
  • Guest Bedrooms: If you have family or friends who visit from out of town, a basement bedroom gives them a comfortable place to stay and a little more privacy. When no one is visiting, the room can double as an office, hobby room, or other flexible space.

A finished basement doesn’t have to serve just one purpose. With a thoughtful design, you can create a space that works for your family now and can change with you over time. Along with adding usable square footage, it can make your South Jordan home more comfortable, functional, and enjoyable every day.

The Basement Finishing Process

Most basement finishes in Eagle Mountain take 10-12 weeks to complete. If your project includes a kitchen, laundry room, or similar feature, completion may take up to 14 weeks. 

Step 1: Initial consultation and bid. During our initial meeting, we will review your basement design plans and suggest features that will help keep pricing in a moderate range. Often, clients have a very tight budget but want upgrade features such as extensive tile work, built-in cabinets, and large kitchens. We’ll review the costs of these items and offer functional alternatives for you to consider.

Our bid will be detailed and accurate. Our philosophy is to provide every detail we can think of for your basement finish. The more detail you have, the more informed you will be about your wants, needs, and budget, which helps you feel supported and in control of the process.

Step 2: Drawings and permitting. We will complete a detailed technical drawing of each basement for your approval. This, along with the bid, gives us a detailed scope of work that directs our efforts on your basement finishing project.

We also permit each basement we complete. The city requires this inexpensive option for your safety and the safety of future owners. The inspection process ensures the primary components of your basement are safe and properly constructed, giving you confidence that your basement finish is secure and reliable.

Step 3: Construction: Most basement finishes in Eagle Mountain take 10-12 weeks to complete. We have developed a system that enables us to maintain consistency and ensure high-quality craftsmanship. At key milestones, we will do a walkthrough with you to ensure we meet your expectations. We will communicate schedules and processes to keep you informed throughout construction. Our goal is to make this process as hassle-free and straightforward as possible, so you feel confident in the timeline and process.

Step 4: Final Inspection and Completion. We consider the project finished only after passing the final inspection. We will do a final walkthrough with you to review the work and address any remaining items, which we will complete within five business days to your satisfaction.

South Jordan Utah Basement Finishing FAQs

Helpful answers for planning your basement project.

Short Answer:
Most basement finishing projects start around $42 to $50 per square foot, but the final cost depends on the size of your basement, the layout, and the features you want to include.

Detailed Answer:
Every basement is a little different, so square footage is only part of the picture. A straightforward basement with a family room and a couple of bedrooms will usually cost less per square foot than one with multiple bathrooms, a wet bar, custom built-ins, or other upgrades.

Your finish choices also make a difference. Flooring, cabinets, countertops, tile, lighting, and other selections can move the price up or down depending on what you choose. We’ll walk through those options with you and help you decide where it makes sense to spend more and where you can keep things simple.

We will provide you with a detailed quote that well fully explain each aspect of your basement finish. Each process will be detailed and complete. The price to complete is guaranteed and your basement will be 100% finished and pass all city inspections.

Short Answer:
Most basements take about 12 weeks to finish once construction starts. Bigger projects or basements with more custom work can take a little longer.

Detailed Answer:
For a typical South Jordan basement, 12 weeks is a good number to plan around. That usually gives us enough time to complete framing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, drywall, paint, flooring, and all the finishing details.

If you plan to create a basement apartment, the timeline will change. More inspections and processes need to be completed. It usually takes an additional 2-4 weeks to complete a fully inspected basement apartment.

Adding kitchens, built-ins, a laundry room, and other non-standard features may increase the build time slightly but usually doesn’t affect it much, especially if we order materials on time.

Inspections also happen at different points during construction, so the project doesn’t happen all at once. We coordinate those inspections and keep the different trades moving so you don’t have to manage the schedule yourself.

Each project follows a process and timeline. If we have to deviate from this process or timeline, we will update you on how that affects your basement’s completion time.

Short Answer:
Yes. Finishing a basement in South Jordan requires a building permit, and inspections will take place at different stages of the project. We handle the permit and inspection process for you.

Detailed Answer:
Permits are a normal part of finishing a basement. The city needs to make sure the work meets current building and safety codes, including framing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and other parts of the project.

Most basements add bedrooms. Safety requirements require each bedroom to have an egress window. This window must be large enough for a person to escape the basement in an emergency and for a firefighter to access the basement for rescue, if needed.

We have completed the building permit process for thousands of projects over the last 17 years and will handle all of this for you to ensure your basement is safe and code-compliant.

Quick answer: Yes. The state has required all cities to relax their basement apartment requirements. We work with all cities and can help you navigate the system to ensure your ADU is code-compliant and legal.

Detailed answer: A basement apartment typically requires more planning than a standard basement finish. The design may need to account for a kitchen, bathroom, sleeping areas, entrances, parking, egress, fire separation, and other building or zoning requirements.

We complete 10 to 20 basement apartments a year. We can help you with every aspect of the process. Everything from design to what materials choices are most durable. Your goal is our goal. To find a way to get the best return on investment possible for your ADU.

Quick answer: Yes. Our design specialists can help with drawings, layout, and design. He can help you visualize your basement before construction starts.

Detailed Answer:
Good basement design involves more than deciding where to put walls. We consider existing plumbing, HVAC, windows, mechanical equipment, ceiling heights, traffic flow, natural light, and how you plan to use each part of the basement, so you can feel confident every detail is covered.

Planning these details before construction helps create a finished basement that feels intentional and seamlessly connected to your home, making the space more welcoming and well-designed.

Quick answer: Look for experience, transparent pricing, quality workmanship, good communication, and a contractor with an organized process from design through completion.

Detailed answer: A basement finishing contractor will be working in your home for several weeks, so experience should be a key factor to help you feel confident in their reliability. Ask how long the contractor has been in business, what is included in the estimate, who manages the project, how changes are handled, and whether permits and inspections are included.

You should also look at completed projects, customer reviews, warranties, and satisfaction guarantees. A dependable contractor should make you feel confident in both the finished basement and the process to get there, giving you peace of mind about their reliability and quality.
