Remodeling & Basement Finishing in Highland, UT | Lynnwood

Remodeling · Highland, UT

Kitchen, bath & basement remodels in Highland.

Highland sits on the bench at the base of the Wasatch, right at the mouth of American Fork Canyon, with some of the biggest lots and custom homes in Utah County. That size means room for a full basement finish, a big kitchen remodel, or an addition that matches a high-end home. Permits and egress windows handled, one honest price in writing, and Dakota runs the whole job.

Your Highland remodeler

We know Highland's big lots and big homes.

Highland was settled in the 1870s by Scottish families who thought the bench land under the Wasatch looked like home, and the town has stuck with big lots ever since. In neighborhoods like Skye Estates, The Hollows, and Hawks Landing, homes sit on large, custom lots, many with a big unfinished basement just waiting to become real living space.

That size is what we do best. We finish large basements with room for a bedroom, a bath, and a wet bar, remodel kitchens built for entertaining, and add on to homes without it looking tacked on. We also work Highland's older, more established streets, where a remodel still needs to match a higher-end home.

You get one written price before we start, and Dakota runs the job from the first walkthrough to the final inspection. No commission salesman, just the owner.

Built for Highland

Highland permits, egress, and HOAs, handled.

Highland City runs its own Building Division, and a project this size has to be done to code from the start. We take care of the city paperwork, the safety pieces, and any HOA approval, so your project is legal and built right.

Highland Building Division

Highland requires a permit to finish a basement or do framing, electrical, or plumbing. We pull it through the city and build to current code.

Egress windows & wells

Every basement bedroom we build gets a code egress window and well, sized right for a deeper Highland foundation.

HOA approval

Neighborhoods like The Hollows and Skye Estates can have HOA rules. We help you get sign-off before work starts.

Custom home standards

Highland homes are often custom-built. We match finish quality so the new work looks like it was always there.

Good questions

Highland remodeling questions.

Do I need a permit to finish a basement in Highland?
Yes. Highland City has its own Building Division, and a finished basement needs a building permit and inspections. We pull the permit through the city, build to current code, and meet the inspectors for you, so the paperwork never lands on your desk.
Does my Highland basement bedroom need an egress window?
Yes. Any basement bedroom in Utah needs a code egress window and well so it is a safe, legal place to sleep. We handle the window, the well, the permit, and the inspection, on new construction and on older Highland homes alike.
Do you remodel homes in Highland neighborhoods like Skye Estates and The Hollows?
Yes. We work in Highland's large-lot custom neighborhoods, including areas like Skye Estates, The Hollows, and Hawks Landing, as well as Highland's older, more established streets. Big custom homes usually mean bigger basements and higher-end finishes, and we build to match the rest of the house.
Does my Highland HOA need to approve a remodel?
Some Highland neighborhoods have an HOA with rules on things like exterior changes or additions. We ask about your HOA up front and help you get any approval you need before we start, so there are no surprises partway through the job.
How far is Highland from your shop in Spanish Fork?
Highland sits at the north end of Utah County, up near the mouth of American Fork Canyon, about a 35 to 40 minute drive from our base in Spanish Fork. We work the whole north end of the county often, so we are in Highland on a regular basis. Travel does not change your price.
What does a remodel cost in Highland?
It depends on the size of the home and the project. Highland's custom homes often run larger than average, so a basement finish or kitchen remodel can be a bigger job than in other Utah County cities. Dakota walks your home, talks through what you want, and gives you one honest price in writing before any work starts.
