Basement Finishing in Naugatuck, CT

Most basements in the Naugatuck Valley are already half a room: a floor, a ceiling, maybe some old paneling. Finishing one is how you get a family room, an office or a guest space without adding on to the house.

What's included

Basement Finishing in Naugatuck, done the way we would want it in our own house.

We take the basement from bare or dated to done: tear out what is there, build out the walls, hang and finish drywall, lay a floor that can handle a basement and trim it all out. One of our recent jobs was exactly that, walls, drywall and a new floor through the whole space.

  • Tear out of old finishes

    Paneling, drop ceiling, old carpet and damaged drywall removed and hauled away.

  • Wall build out

    Walls framed off the foundation with our framing partner, laid out around what has to stay reachable.

  • Drywall

    Hung, taped and finished, ready for paint.

  • Basement rated flooring

    Waterproof luxury vinyl plank that does not mind a concrete slab.

  • Doors and trim

    Prehung doors, casing and baseboard to match the rest of the house.

  • Closets and storage

    Built in shelving and closet space where the layout allows.

Good to know. We do not do waterproofing. If a basement has active water coming in, that has to be solved first, and we will tell you so before quoting a finish. Electrical and plumbing are done by those trades.

Why us

Why homeowners call us for basement finishing.

If a door we hung ends up crooked, we come back and fix it.

  1. 01

    Planned around what you cannot cover

    Shutoffs, the panel and cleanouts stay reachable. We lay out the walls with that in mind from day one.

  2. 02

    Floors that suit a basement

    We recommend materials that handle a slab and some humidity, not ones that only look good in the showroom.

  3. 03

    Finished like upstairs

    The trim and doors downstairs get the same attention as the rest of the house.

Questions

Basement Finishing questions we hear in the Naugatuck Valley.

My basement gets damp. Can you still finish it?

Some humidity can be managed with the right materials and a dehumidifier. Active water coming in cannot. We look at it at the estimate and tell you honestly which one you have before quoting a finish.

Do I need a permit to finish my basement in Connecticut?

Finishing a basement usually does need a building permit from your town. We talk through what your job involves at the estimate so you know what to expect from the building department.

What flooring works best in a basement?

Waterproof luxury vinyl plank is our usual recommendation. It handles a concrete slab, it is warm underfoot and it does not swell if it gets wet.

Can you add a bathroom downstairs?

We can build and finish the room, tile it and install the vanity and trim. The plumbing itself is done by a plumber, and we tell you that up front.

Do you finish basements in Waterbury and Watertown?

Yes. We finish basements within about 40 miles of Naugatuck, including Waterbury, Watertown, Prospect, Beacon Falls and Oxford.
