Basement Finishing for Your Lancaster, PA Home
- Is your basement dark and dingy—filled with cold concrete and crammed with boxes of off-season clothing?
- Do you wish you could convert your dreary, small basement into a relaxing atmosphere the entire family can enjoy?
- Maybe you want to add an extra bedroom in the basement where guests can have their own private space when visiting?
- Has it always been one of your dreams to have a surround sound home theater system to watch your favorite movies and TV shows?
- Do you want a beautiful, functional, custom bar to entertain guests over some cocktails? Or a “man cave”?

Basement Remodel – In-Law Quarters Do you have an elderly family member who you’d like to create a warm, welcoming, safe in-law quarters for? (Check out our Aging in Place specialty webpage!)
- Are you lacking ample space in other areas of your home, and you’d like to build a private home office downstairs?
- Would your kids love a space of their own—a unique, kid-friendly game room or kid’s play area?
The good news— the lowest floor of your home has loads of potential!

Our recommendation—treat it just as you would any of the rooms above ground. It might just become the most popular spot in the house – and for a lot less cash than adding on.
We are your basement remodeling contractor who can create your dream basement!
Being experts in basement finishing in Lancaster, PA – we will turn this underutilized space into a place you’ll be eager to spend time in.
We have been creating beautiful basement remodels in the Lancaster County, PA area since 1998, so we understand all the variables of finishing basements:
- You must have an egress window in any basement bedroom area so they need to be located at the perimeter.
- The TV-viewing zone should be in a darker spot to reduce glare and create a home-theater feel.
- The snack/bar area should be in an area that is accessible without crossing in front of the TV-viewing zone.
And the list goes on and on!
