Basement Finishing

A finished basement is the most square footage you can add without changing the footprint of your house. We handle the framing, insulation, moisture detailing, and finishes so the space stays comfortable through an Erie winter, not just looks good on day one.

What we handle

Basement Finishing, done by one crew.

  • Framing, insulation, and drywall for a warm, finished space
  • Egress, lighting, and electrical to code
  • Optional bathrooms, wet bars, and home theaters
  • Flooring that holds up below grade
  • Moisture and air-sealing detailing for our climate
