Tips for Using the Estimator

The cost of any basement finishing project depends on a number of things. As you might imagine, the size of your basement is often the most important. So, when using the estimator, focus on the area you’d like to finish, excluding utility rooms, laundry rooms, and storage areas. Don’t worry if measuring square footage feels tricky—we offer a range of size options to simplify the process.

If you’d like a more precise estimate, we’d be happy to visit your home, suggest areas to finish, and help you calculate square footage. Keep in mind that adding features like bathrooms, kitchenettes, or bars will increase the cost.

Our estimator is built to be transparent, offering an accurate sense of costs for projects completed with high-performing products, professional installers, and a meaningful warranty. You can even run the calculator multiple times to see how different choices impact the price range.

A Note on High-Quality Products

Using the right basement finishing products can improve your home’s energy efficiency and might even make you eligible for a Federal Energy Savings Tax Credit. If you’re considering special features, like a bay or bow window, we recommend running those options separately for a clearer view of their cost.
