Basement finishing FAQs

  • Does finishing your basement add value to your home?

    Yes, a finished basement can increase your home value significantly. Most homeowners in the United States see a 70-75% return on their investment when they finish their basement. However, it's essential to not only install high-quality materials but to work with a professional basement finishing company such as Halco Basement Systems.

  • How much does basement finishing cost?

    No two basement finishing projects are exactly the same. So, it's no surprise that basement finishing costs can vary from one home to the next. Factors that influence the cost of a basement remodeling project include:

    • The size of your basement
    • The number of rooms included in the design
    • Whether you need egress windows
    • Electrical, plumbing, vent work, and other tasks
    • Finishes and design selections

    At Halco Basement Systems, we want you to feel confident about finishing your basement. That's why we are proud to offer no-obligation, free estimates on our basement finishing services. We also offer flexible financing options for qualified buyers.

  • Can any basement be finished?

    The short answer is yes, any basement can be finished. However, if your basement has structural problems or is no longer code-compliant, it will require additional repairs or updating before it can be finished. Basements that frequently leak or flood may also need to have a basement waterproofing system installed to eliminate moisture intrusion.

  • What is a basement finishing system?

    Below-grade spaces are vulnerable to water intrusion that can cause mold, odors, and structural damage. Basement finishing systems are designed to combat common moisture-related problems and keep lower-level spaces dry. Because they consist of prefabricated building materials, they can be installed much faster than traditional building materials.

This durable, state-of-the-art system consists of high-quality products proven to repel water and resist mold growth, including basement wall panels, insulation, ceiling tiles, flooring, and more.
