Basement finishing in Provo

The room you are not using yet.

A finished basement is the cheapest square footage you will ever add. It is already under your roof. In Provo, that empty space can become bedrooms, a family room, a guest suite, or even a legal apartment near campus.

Out on the east bench, in places like Edgemont, Oak Hills, and Rock Canyon, you have solid family homes with big basements waiting to be finished. Closer to downtown and BYU, a lot of investors finish basements to add rentals. We do both, all under one roof: framing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, drywall, paint, flooring, trim, and finish work.

Most of our reviews are basement finishes, and the same words come up every time: honest price, answers the phone, shows up, and the finish work is clean. You get one written price before we start, and Dakota runs the job from the first walkthrough to the final inspection.

Built for Provo

Provo permits, egress, and basement apartments, handled.

Provo runs its own building department, 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.

Provo Building Division

Provo requires a permit to finish a basement or do framing, electrical, or plumbing. We pull it and build to code.

Egress windows & wells

Provo even runs an Egress Window Program. Every basement bedroom we build gets a code egress window and well.

Basement apartments & ADUs

Provo has rules for basement apartments, and many require the owner to live on site. We build legal, safe units.

Older homes near campus

Homes near downtown and BYU are often older. We plan for the surprises that come with old wiring and framing.

"Dakota was excellent with communication, fair pricing, and great subs. He is methodical and reasonable. By the time we ran into a problem, he already was churning up a solid permanent solution. Already hiring him again for our basement finish."

Good questions

Provo basement finishing questions.

How much does it cost to finish a basement in Provo?
It depends on the size and what goes in it. A basic open rec room costs far less than a basement with a bedroom, a full bathroom, and a wet bar. Dakota walks your Provo basement and gives you one honest price in writing before any work starts, so you know the real number up front.
Do I need a permit to finish a basement in Provo?
Yes. Provo City requires a building permit to finish a basement, including framing, electrical, and plumbing work. We pull the permit with the Provo Building Division, build to code, and handle the inspections for you.
Does my Provo basement bedroom need an egress window?
Yes. Any basement bedroom in Provo needs an egress window so it is a legal, safe place to sleep. Provo even runs an Egress Window Program. We install the window and the window well and handle the permit and inspection.
Can I build a basement apartment in my Provo home?
Provo allows basement apartments and ADUs, but the city has rules, and many setups require the owner to live on the property. We build legal, safe units to code so landlords stay on the right side of the city.
Do you finish basements in older homes near downtown Provo and BYU?
Yes. Lots of homes near downtown and campus are older, and investors finish basements there for rentals. We plan for the surprises that come with old wiring, plumbing, and framing, and keep you updated the whole way.
How long does a basement finish take in Provo?
Most finished basements take a few weeks once we start, depending on size and whether we add a bathroom or wet bar. Dakota gives you a clear timeline up front and keeps you updated the whole way.
