Turn raw concrete and bare studs into a finished, code-compliant floor your family actually uses — framing through final finishes, handled start to finish by one Boulder team.
A true basement finish is a full build. We manage every phase under one roof, so there's a single accountable team from the first wall to the final coat of paint.
Finishing a basement gives you a whole new floor of usable space at a fraction of the cost and disruption of building out or up — there's no foundation to pour and no roofline to extend.
It's also one of the more reliable home improvements for resale, typically returning a strong share of its cost. And it solves real life today: a guest suite, a quiet office, a playroom, a gym, or a place for the family to spread out.
In Colorado especially, a large share of homes are sold with the basement left unfinished — which means the opportunity is already sitting under your feet.
Most projects combine a few of these into one cohesive lower level — and our design-first process makes sure they work together.

Call (720) 340-2032Permits & Boulder code. Finishing a basement in the Boulder area requires building permits, and the finished space has to meet code in several areas — egress windows for any bedroom, minimum ceiling heights, electrical safety, and fire protection among them. It's one of the parts of the project homeowners worry about most, and it's also the part you don't have to think about: we handle the permit application, plans, and inspection scheduling as a standard part of every project, so the work is done correctly, signed off, and on the record.
What it costs. There's no single price for finishing a basement, because no two basements are the same. The biggest factors are square footage, the layout and number of rooms, whether you're adding plumbing for a bathroom or bar, and the level of finishes you choose. As a rough guide, most full finishes in Boulder land between $45,000 and $90,000 — but rather than quote a number that may not fit your project, we give you a free, detailed, itemized estimate after seeing the space, and explain exactly what's driving the cost so you can make decisions with full information.

A typical finished basement takes about 8 to 12 weeks from the start of construction. Adding a bathroom, egress window, or kitchenette can extend it. You'll get a realistic schedule with your estimate.

Yes. A basement bedroom is one of the most popular projects. Code requires a compliant egress window for safe escape, which we install as part of the work so the room is legal and safe.
