Eagle Mountain, Utah Basement Finishing

Utah Basement Finisher has focused exclusively on basement finishing for 15 years. Our family-owned business specializes in helping homeowners transform their basements into spaces that serve their needs and make their homes more valuable. We focus on efficiency and have created systems to ensure you get the quality finish you want.

Reasons to finish your Basement

Finishing your basement is one of those home improvements that makes sense. Do you need more space for the kids to play? Planning for an elderly parent to move in? Finally ready to create that cozy movie room you've been dreaming about? Your basement could be the answer.

What's great about basement finishing is the significant value you get for your investment. While new construction can run you $200+ per square foot, most basement projects come in around $40 per square foot. That's a pretty sweet deal for adding real living space to your home. Plus, you're not just gaining square footage, you're making your daily life more comfortable and boosting your home's value at the same time.

The best part? The possibilities really are endless down there. Whether you want a quiet home office, a teenager's hangout spot, or just somewhere to spread out when the main floor feels cramped, finishing your basement gives you that flexibility without breaking the bank.

Permits, Timelines & Local Expertise

We're Utah Basement Finisher, and basements are our thing – literally. For the past 15 years, we've been doing one thing well: transforming those dark, cluttered spaces under your house into rooms you'll want to spend time in.

Our team is familiar with West Jordan's building codes, so you don't have to worry about obtaining permits or inspections. We're all licensed, and we take pride in our work. However, what truly sets us apart is our approach to communication with you throughout the project. No disappearing for weeks without an update – we'll keep you in the loop so you always know what's happening and what's coming next.

When you work with us, you're not getting a company that does basements on the side. You're getting people who wake up every morning thinking about how to improve basements. It's what we love, and it's evident in the results.

Design Ideas to Make the Most of Your West Jordan Basement

Your basement is like having a whole extra floor just waiting for you to figure out what to do with it. Some people play it safe by throwing in a guest bedroom or making it the new family hangout spot, so the kids aren't always hogging the living room TV. However, some honestly think outside the box and transform their basement into something that perfectly meets their family's needs.

  1. Home Gyms: Staying active can be challenging when fighting traffic, crowded gyms, and recurring monthly fees. A home gym in your basement lets you work out on your terms, without waiting for equipment, without commuting, and without excuses. It doesn't have to be fancy, either. With a few essentials like free weights, a treadmill, and a Bluetooth speaker, you can create a practical, affordable, and 100% your space.
  2. Theater Rooms Why fight for parking and pay $50 for movie night when you can enjoy the same cinematic experience at home? A basement theater room can be surprisingly budget-friendly to set up, and way more comfortable. Add a big-screen TV, surround sound, and cozy seating, and you have the ultimate spot for family movie nights, game days, or binge-watching your favorite series. We can help you plan the layout, so everything looks great and works just right.
  3. Home Offices: Working from home is now pretty much permanent, but good luck getting anything done at the kitchen table with kids bouncing off the walls. A basement office? That's your ticket to actually being able to think for more than two seconds without someone interrupting to ask what's for snack time.One of the benefits of basement offices is that they automatically provide separation from the noise upstairs. You can improve that by adding a solid core door to the office and insulating the interior walls and ceiling. This is a great way to isolate you from the normal sounds of an active home.

Step-by-Step: Finishing Your Basement in West Jordan

Step 1: Consultation & Bid

We begin by visiting your home to assess the materials we're working with. Our team will walk you through the process, listen to your thoughts, and offer suggestions based on our years of experience. We've worked with a wide range of budgets, so whether you're envisioning custom cabinets and a spacious kitchen or want some attractive tile work, we can usually find a way to make it happen. Sometimes, that means getting creative with alternatives, which is one of our strengths.

After we've discussed everything, we'll compile a detailed bid that outlines precisely what we've agreed upon. No surprises or hidden stuff – just a clear breakdown of what's included, what it'll cost, and where you might be able to make changes if you need to. We want you to feel good about the whole thing from day one, not like you're signing up for something you don't understand.

Control of the process.

Step 2: Drawings & Permits

Once you give us the green light, we'll draw up the technical plans for your basement, allowing you to see precisely what we plan to build. It's essentially our way of ensuring we're all on the same page before anyone picks up a hammer. Trust me, it's way better to catch any questions or changes now than halfway through construction.

We'll also take care of all the permit stuff for you. West Jordan requires permits for basement work, which is a good thing; it means an inspector will check that everything is done right and up to code. That way, you know your new space is safe and secure, plus it protects your home's value down the road if you ever decide to sell.

Step 3: Construction

When it's time to start construction, we follow a reliable process that keeps everything on track and ensures top-quality craftsmanship. Most West Jordan basement finishes are typically completed within 10–12 weeks. If your plans include more custom features, like a kitchen or wet bar, expect a little extra time, especially for countertop fabrication after templating.

We keep you informed throughout the build with regular updates and walkthroughs at key points. We want you to feel confident every step of the way, so we focus on clear communication and strive to make the entire experience as smooth and stress-free as possible.

Step 4: Final Walkthrough & Completion

After your basement passes its final city inspection, we'll schedule a final walkthrough with you. This is your opportunity to examine everything closely and let us know if anything requires a final touch. If something isn't quite right, we'll take care of it within five business days, promptly and without hassle. We're not done until you're pleased with the result.
