On average, finishing a basement will cost between $32-$47 per square foot and total costs of $32,000 to $46,000+. Prices will mostly depend on the layout of your basement, rooms, features, materials, and construction labor. Another factor that plays a role in the cost of finishing a basement is whether you want a kitchen, have extra bathrooms or want an open-plan layout.
Some homeowners hope to cut costs by doing it themselves. While finishing a basement on your own may save you time, it is only worth it if you know what you are doing. Otherwise, you will run into challenges that will cost more money and time than working with a basement finishing professional.
Along with getting your basement finished quicker, working with a home contractor will give you the peace of mind that the project is done the right way. Unfortunately, many homeowners who finished their basements on their own complete the work only to have problems appear a few weeks later. Finish your basement by partnering up with a home contractor you can trust—contact Aspire Construction to learn more.
