What’s Included in a Basement Development

Whether your basement is bare concrete or needs a refresh, we plan and build a space that fits how you live.

Basement Renovation Cost in Calgary

Most basement projects we complete cost between $50,000 and $180,000. Where yours lands depends on:

• The size of the space and whether it is unfinished or being updated
• How many rooms you add, and whether you want a bathroom or wet bar
• The plumbing and electrical work needed
• The flooring, finishes and fixtures you choose

After your free consultation, we give you a fixed written quote, so you know the cost before work begins.

Popular Basement Layouts

Every basement is different, but most of our projects combine a few of these ideas:

• Guest suite: a bedroom and full bathroom for visiting family or older kids
• Family rec room: an open area with a media wall and a wet bar for entertaining
• Home gym and office: a quiet workspace next to a room set up for workouts

We help you decide what fits your space and budget during the consultation.
