Basement finishing · Highland, UT
Highland's big custom homes usually come with a big basement, and a lot of them are still unfinished. Let's fix that. We frame, wire, plumb, drywall, and finish bedrooms, bathrooms, wet bars, home theaters, and rec rooms, with the egress windows and Highland permits handled for you. One honest price in writing, and Dakota runs the whole job.
Basement finishing in Highland
A finished basement is the cheapest square footage you will ever add, and it is already under your roof. In Highland, that space is often bigger than what you find in other Utah County cities, since the town was built on large lots from the start.
In neighborhoods like Skye Estates, The Hollows, and Hawks Landing, we finish basements with room for a bedroom suite, a home theater, a gym, and a wet bar, all in one project. We do it all under one roof: framing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, drywall, paint, flooring, trim, and finish work matched to a custom home.
You get one written price before we start, and Dakota runs the job from the first walkthrough to the final inspection.
"Dakota and his team proposed various options and solutions specific to her needs and vision and ended up leaving her with a beautiful finished product. Pricing was fair for the high quality of materials, craftsmanship and overall installation standard."

Built for Highland
Highland City runs its own Building Division, and a finished basement has to be done to code. We take care of the city paperwork and the safety pieces so your basement is legal and built right.
Highland requires a permit to finish a basement or do framing, electrical, or plumbing. We pull it and build to current code.
Every basement bedroom we build gets a code egress window, sized right for a deeper Highland foundation.
If a window well changes your yard, we check any HOA rules with you before we dig.
Highland basements sit under custom homes. We match trim, paint, and finish quality to the rest of your house.
